Having just reinstalled my Mid-2015 Retina MacBook Pro and having previously heard about LinearMouse, I thought I'd give it a try instead of my usual solution, SteerMouse.īackground: The scroll wheel response on my Logitech mouse is awful (it goes from a couple of pixels at a time, to a full page at time, with no inbetween), and it's quite frustrating to use. could be useful for other cases as well, like setting mouse acceleration per application (again, could be useful for games).

could lead to problems if other software actually handles the mouse side buttons as well as swipe gestures - either triggering the same action twice, or triggering two different actions.īut this could be the much easier fix to my problem (if it's possible) and similar ones with other apps that actually handle the side buttons in macos (I don't know any though, maybe games?).
I'm using the current version from Homebrewīack and forth works great now with LinearMouse everywhere so far other than one place: On to my feature request and why one would want/need that: Issue: CreditsĪwesome that this exists, I was frustrated with my external mouse when I first got my mac a few months ago and this is very very nice software with all the features you really need :D You may empower your modifier keys with additional functionality, such as modifying the scrolling speed or altering the scrolling oriention. LinearMouse allows you to customize both cursor acceleration and sensitivity, or even completely disable cursor acceleration and sensitivity. Regardless of how you adjust the tracking speed, the speed curve of cursor movement may still appear strange. MacOS only provides the ability to configure cursor acceleration which is called tracking speed in System Preferences.
LinearMouse translates side button clicks to swipe gestures so that most apps can recognize back & forward actions correctly. Side buttons on mice do not always work well in macOS, for example, in Safari and Xcode. If your mouse doesn't have a smooth wheel, you'll like this feature. LinearMouse will disable the scrolling acceleration and provide a linear and discrete scrolling experience, just like in Windows. This is useful if you use both mice and trackpads. LinearMouse will reverse the scrolling direction for mice but keep the direction for trackpads.
