Hi All
Question! does the news app only allow pages to be turned using the arrow keys? or can the pages be turned using the mouse. If someone knows of a way to do this, would you mind updating me please. Also new to Mac OS.
Thank you very much.

Don't know about turning pages but long articles- while they can be scrolled with arrow keys- scroll nicely with mouse actions/gestures too.

I'm going to guess that you perhaps are looking at a digital magazine??? While I don't subscribe to one through News, I would guess that it works just like "Books" (app). If so, I just opened a book and turn pages by swiping left on the Mouse though- IMO- some net gain doesn't seem to show itself vs. using left & right arrow keys on a keyboard.

A quick search online leads to Apple's own instructional page for News saying to turn pages by clicking or swiping.

Someone else with magazine subscriptions needs to chime in to confirm or refute that things works just like the Books app in News.
