Test matrix

What to test and what a pass actually tells you

Run the test closest to the symptom. A passing result narrows the diagnosis; it does not certify the entire device.

Mouse Button TestVerify left, right, middle, and extra mouse button events.

A pass proves browser input events are arriving; app/game mappings, profiles and accessibility settings move higher on the list.

Mouse Button Event ViewerSee browser button numbers for left, middle, right and additional mouse buttons that reach the page.

A pass proves browser input events are arriving; app/game mappings, profiles and accessibility settings move higher on the list.

Double Click TestCheck intentional double-click timing and event detection.

A pass proves browser input events are arriving; app/game mappings, profiles and accessibility settings move higher on the list.

Mouse Scroll Wheel TestVerify vertical and horizontal wheel events.

A pass proves browser input events are arriving; app/game mappings, profiles and accessibility settings move higher on the list.

Mouse Horizontal Scroll TestCheck whether a mouse, trackpad or tilt wheel sends horizontal wheel deltas to the browser.

A pass proves browser input events are arriving; app/game mappings, profiles and accessibility settings move higher on the list.

Mouse Polling Rate EstimateEstimate pointer event frequency in the browser.

A pass proves browser input events are arriving; app/game mappings, profiles and accessibility settings move higher on the list.

03 · Accidental double-click symptomsReproduce this symptom independently, then choose the closest live test or exact compatibility record before changing drivers, firmware, cables or hardware.

04 · Browser input works but Logi Options+ or an app behaves differentlyReproduce this symptom independently, then choose the closest live test or exact compatibility record before changing drivers, firmware, cables or hardware.

05 · Bluetooth/receiver path comparisonReproduce this symptom independently, then choose the closest live test or exact compatibility record before changing drivers, firmware, cables or hardware.

Model-specific problems

Start with the symptom people actually search for

These paths combine this model's documented limits with live evidence, instead of copying a generic troubleshooting checklist.

Logitech MX Master 3S cursor stuttersMeasure pointer continuity and compare Bluetooth versus Logi Bolt before changing DPI/profile settings. Connection-specific stutter points to a different branch than raw sensor/physical tracking trouble.

Evidence handoff

If the browser cannot reach the suspected subsystem

Keep the browser result as one observation, then move to the operating system or manufacturer diagnostic that can see the protected hardware state. Do not interpret an unsupported browser API as a failed component.
