[Feature Request] First Class macOS Support #205

The keybindings assume Mac users can still use Ctrl, but it doesn't work in practice, as the key is already bound. Please allow using Cmd instead.

Since the mouse traditionally supplied with a Mac has only had one button (still the case), holding the Control key while clicking has long been established to function as a 'right click'- opening the context menu. Having the context menu popping up- often in the way- when trying to select multiple keys is frustrating. Holding the command key (⌘) while clicking on a Mac allows individual items to be added to the selection- like Control in the Windows environment. This is almost always "fixed" when interacting with web content- strange that it isn't taken care of by the browser or something...

You can use Alt/Opt in place of control to select multiple keys.

(Wow, that sure did take a while! Better late than never though!) THANKS! That isn't very intuitive because that's not the normal use of the Option key on a Mac. I don't see that as a big deal; however, in light of that, a point should be made in the documentation to explain this!

I just happened across this today, I don't have any affiliation with the project. :) Forget how I found that, but it was a lifesaver for me.

I can only get the rotation point to move up and down, sadly no left or right
