Support for BetterTouchTool #25

Open Dr4hcir opened 1 year ago

Dr4hcir commented 1 year ago

I successfully installed Mac Dial and tried all features. People are requesting some extra featues. Some of them can be fixed without building them in this app. Example: If I tell BTT (BetterTouchTool) to listen to the scroll command + a certain key, I can make the dial zoom in and out.

But how do I listen to only the turning of the dial?

My dream is that I can use it to open the application switcher just by turning the wheel. Without a touch of another button.

I will also ask this question in the BTT forum, because I suspect that app needs to support this dial before my dream can come true.

Any thoughts?

Let's answer my own question: I got some help from the BTT community and am now able to mimic this app and more using the 'generic devices' feature. More info here: https://community.folivora.ai/t/generic-devices-report-repeated-events-even-if-monitored-bytes-dont-change/30101
