The Main Interface; Mouse Movement; Main Game Area - Black Isle ICEWIND DALE 2 Manual

• On Quick Weapons, Quick Spells, Quick Items, and Group Formations slots allows for the configura-
tion of the slot type. After R-clicking, the current options for that quick slot will appear. You can
select one for the slot by L-clicking on it, or R-clicking to go deeper if applicable.
• On any of the main game interface buttons, except the first three, brings up the customization menu.
• Holding down the SHIFT key while R-clicking on game screen allows waypoints to be set for your
characters to walk between. This makes navigating terrain much easier.
The main game area will scroll up, down, left or right if you move the mouse to the edge of the screen, either
in windowed or full screen mode. This also occurs if you use the number pad arrow keys.
You'll be seeing this screen the most while playing Icewind Dale II. The mouse clicks and other buttons do
the following on this screen:
• L-click selects characters; also, a SHIFT and L-click or CTRL and L-click combination will select or
select/deselect multiple characters; also, a click and drag on the main game area causes a box to be
drawn and any character inside will be selected (this may be used with the Shift key to add the select-
ed characters, or Ctrl, to remove characters).
• L-click gives commands (see buttons, below) to the selected character(s).
• R-click cancels an action and also does formation rotation and movement when a group is selected.
(R-click and hold to rotate a formation.)
• Note that the cursor changes when moved over objects or characters or NPCs to indicate the default
10
action. The default action mode can be changed by L-clicking on the buttons at the bottom of the screen.
