Hello,
I am hoping to get a second desk - a standing desk, at a right angle to my main desk.
I will connect a second screen to my iMac, which is no problem, but I was wondering how I would be able to use the mouse properly, given that I will be standing at a right angle to my computer.
Can the mouse be set for different sitting positions?
Thanks in advance.

Do you mean where the mouse sits or where you sit? What exactly would you like to have happen?
The mouse just moves the pointer and activates screen ready apps, it doesn't matter where you stand or which direction you look.

Thanks for the replies, folks! I probably need to explain further.
I will basically have one computer, two screens, two keyboards and two mice.
My computer will on my main desk with the main monitor, keyboard and mouse.
There would then be a second desk to the right, on a 90 degree angle to the main one, with a second monitor, second mouse and second keyboard, so I can stand.
So, given the mouse would be at a 90 degree angle, I assume it would be the wrong way round. Is there any way of sorting this?
You will continue to use the (one) mouse relative to the position of the keyboard you use.
There should be no reason to change anything. 🤷🏽♂️
You won't have two keyboards, will you?
The mouse (either mouse) will always orient itself to the user, not the location of the computer.
It'll work as normal.
You only need one mouse because the pointer will be mirrored (if using mirroring) or traversed from one to the other with an extended desktop.
Hey all,
You're all correct - I guess I as overthinking things, as I often do!
Thanks for your help.
