Virtually multiple wheels are recognized as the multiple manipulation positions provided by a wheel for the scrolling by the finger. A sensor senses the manipulation position of the finger, and issues a corresponding auxiliary signal, empowering the wheel to have multiple manipulation modes, that is, each of the manipulation position is used as one virtual wheel. Scrolling the wheel from the middle, from the left side, and from the right side are three preferred manipulation positions. A slight shift of the finger to the left or right is enough to manipulate multiple software functionalities. A tool icon links multiple sets of software functionalities responded to the wheel message, and through the differentiation of the auxiliary signal corresponding to each set, which is the multifunction tool icon. The manipulation of multiple multifunction tool icons by the single wheel of virtually multiple wheels is an improved manipulation method of computer software, where its manipulation interface is quite compact yet abundant in contents.
