+
+
+## Split Keyboard Configuration
+
+The following configuration options are only available when using `SPLIT_POINTING_ENABLE` see [data sync options](feature_split_keyboard.md?id=data-sync-options). The rotation and invert `*_RIGHT` options are only used with `POINTING_DEVICE_COMBINED`. If using `POINTING_DEVICE_LEFT` or `POINTING_DEVICE_RIGHT` use the common configuration above to configure your pointing device.

+
+!> If there is a `_RIGHT` configuration option or callback, the [common configuration](feature_pointing_device.md?id=common-configuration) option will work for the left. For correct left/right detection you should setup a [handedness option](feature_split_keyboard?id=setting-handedness), `EE_HANDS` is usually a good option for an existing board that doesn't do handedness by hardware.

Recall that the mouse report is set to zero (except the buttons) whenever it is sent, so the scrolling would only occur once in each case.

+## Split Examples
+
+The following examples make use the `SPLIT_POINTING_ENABLE` functionality and show how to manipulate the mouse report for a scrolling mode.
+
+### Single Pointing Device
+
+The following example will work with either `POINTING_DEVICE_LEFT` or `POINTING_DEVICE_RIGHT` and enables scrolling mode while on a particular layer.
+
+```c
