Welcome to KensingtonWorks™

KensingtonWorks™ is a tool for personalising your experience with Kensington® trackballs, mice and presenters. Designed with productivity in mind, KensingtonWorks™ simplified software allows you to customise button functions, modify pointer settings and tailor your device functionality to meet your individual needs. We aim to provide you with devices that work the way you do to enhance your productivity and increase workflow efficiencies.

 

Personalisation options

KensingtonWorks™ provides you with endless function combinations to enhance productivity and customise your workflow options. All settings can be assigned per application so you can customise your device buttons based on the application you are using. Here are a few personalisation options available to help you work like a pro!

 

Button assignment options

Mouse and keyboard

  • Assign hotkey shortcuts.
  • Perform ‘Chording’ (assigning a hotkey to the combination of two buttons pressed at once).

Editing

  • Program buttons to perform frequently used editing functions such as cut, paste, redo, copy and select all.

Navigation

  • Assign buttons to pre-selected navigation functions such as find, scroll up/down, home, page up/down and play/pause.

Media

  • Control your media viewing by assigning buttons to volume up/down or mute and track controls for next and previous.

Web browser

  • Assign buttons to forward, stop and refresh to support efficient browsing.

Windows and virtual desktop

  • Set buttons to minimise or maximise windows, snap windows or desktop, and switch virtual desktops.

Launching

System

  • Set efficient system buttons to copy screen to clipboard, lock screen, open Explorer window, show run dialog, or show system search.

Mouse and keyboard

Cursor and pointer control

  • Adjust your pointer to move more slowly.
  • Use Single Axis Movement to lock the point movement along either the horizontal (x) or vertical (y) axis.

Presenter customisation features

  • Assign custom features to the top button. Note: the top button can only be programmed to perform one function at a time.
  • Set a button to blackout the screen – a convenient default for interactive presentations.
  • Start/end presentation with the presenter instead of walking back to your laptop.
  • Cursor for playing videos or opening links during the presentation.
  • Magnifier allows the presenter to zoom in on the designated area the presenter would like to explain in detail. This is recommended when presenting financial reports and other areas with a high density of information.
  • Pen enables the presenter the flexibility to draw the audience's attention and adds emphasis to particular sentences and areas of the presentation. The Pen feature is exclusive for Microsoft® PowerPoint for Mac.
  • Customise the pointer with up to 20 different styles to best fit your different presentation scenarios. Select the laser-like pointer for formal presentations and other unique pointer styles to encourage more discussions/conversations for interactive informal presentations.
  • Customise your pointer size and speed to cultivate your personal presentation style.
