giga Veteran Posted November 16, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 16, 2009 Found these while trying to cure some boredom. I haven't tried MouseWizard, but it seems to restore some essential functionality for those who have a Magic Mouse (middle click). BetterTouchTool seems to be a nice replacement over the aging MultiClutch project, adding new gestures such as three finger tap. It even has some Magic Mouse functionality like three finger swipes, though no middle click as MouseWizard boasts. (developer states it's on his to do list) If you have a Magic Mouse? b> MouseWizard ($2.50): http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/32991/mousewizard | http://www.samuco.net/web/node/23 By using MouseWizard, you can give your Magic Mouse two extra buttons, 'pinch' and 'bloat' trackpad gestures, and special features such as 'coverup', to make your Mac go to sleep. Middle click Fourth click (Expos?) Pinch/Zoom "Whole hand" sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudy Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 This is exactly what I was looking for (Apple should have added that by default really :/). Did anyone try it before I spend $2.50 on it? (I'll most likely buy it when I get home tonight) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Eh... How safe is this? I don't want it to permanently mess up my Magic Mouse or anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrBroccoli Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Awesome! One thing I missed when I switched to a laptop, middle clicking to open a link in a new tab =D. I no longer have to right click > open in new tab! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a software that runs on your mac, worst case scenario you can uninstall it and you lost your $2.50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osirisX Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 BetterTouchTool is awesome and keeps getting more awesome every day. Some days there are like 5 updates :p Mouse Wizard on the other hand didn't work at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some days there are like 5 updates :pMouse Wizard on the other hand didn't work at all. Yea, I was just about to download the Mouse Wizard trial but then I checked BetterTouchTool and I think I'll try it in a few weeks (too many updates right now but it's looking promising) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JodyWatts Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I agree, Mouse Wizard causes more trouble than it's worth. I like the commands in it better than BetterTouchTool (2 fingers for middle click) .. but it's not worth the trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliott Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 BetterTouchTool is starting to support two finger click. :D Middle click with two fingers FTW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
