The left handed designer

Posted by Johnnie Walker on Feb 6, 2010 in blog0 comments

As a lefty I find it a struggle to use my graphics tablet, sure I draw pretty good with my left hand, but after years of using a mouse with my right hand I find the eye to hand coordination difficult.

This leaves me having to either adapt my drawing skills to my right hand or having to re-learn the eye to hand coordination skills when using my left hand.

Maybe I should have just started using a mouse with my left hand, however it just felt wrong to use a mouse with my left hand, maybe it was the way desks and workstations were setup, or the fact that many mice are designed for right handed use, or maybe I’m just a bit weird!

I’d be interested to hear from other left handed designers, which hand do you use your mouse with? how have you overcome your graphics tablet usage problems?
