Great app! But few feedbacks… #94

Open upstroke-version opened 2 years ago

upstroke-version commented 2 years ago

I really love this app. First I was hesitant giving accessibility permission for none open source app, but then I learned that you were the developer of Rectangle and i gave it a try, and I don’t regret it. I’m going to purchase after few more days of testing. But I have few feature requests for Magic Mouse.

‘ignore taping middle part of the Magic Mouse’ option for ‘tap one on the right/left half’ gesture would be great. In current state, apple’s double tapping gesture for smart zoom always triggers this gesture, so it’s not a great experience.

‘swipe up/down with two(or three) fingers’ This might be useful for mission control and app expose gesture since magic mouse doesn’t have app expose gesture, and apple’s default gesture for mission control(double tap with two fingers) for magic mouse is not very intuitive compared with trackpad gesture.

I’m not sure these would be technically feasible to Implement on this app since you haven’t implemented already. None the less this is still a great app and I’m gonna buy it. Also, thanks for the fast reply on previous post, I was genuinely surprised.

Thanks for the feedback! I thought I responded to this yesterday, but maybe I'm going crazy since the response is not here.

‘ignore taping middle part of the Magic Mouse’ option for ‘tap one on the right/left half’ gesture would be great. In current state, apple’s double tapping gesture for smart zoom always triggers this gesture, so it’s not a great experience.

I've put in some terminal command configuration for this that will go out in the next release, so you can configure the left/right areas for that gesture. If there's enough demand, I would consider adding it to the UI. Of course, an "ideal" fix would be to be able to prevent smart zoom in a predictable way, but that's not possible.

‘swipe up/down with two(or three) fingers’ This might be useful for mission control and app expose gesture since magic mouse doesn’t have app expose gesture, and apple’s default gesture for mission control(double tap with two fingers) for magic mouse is not very intuitive compared with trackpad gesture.

Unfortunately, swipe gestures on the magic mouse don't work well with the way that Multitouch works. With the way I have Multitouch implemented, it will not prevent the scroll behavior in magic mouse swipes. If I end up re-working the app to prevent the scroll at some point, then I will revisit this.

Sorry for the typo or bad grammar, I’m not a native english speaker :p Your english is perfectly fine :)

Here are the mentioned terminal commands, available in v1.27

defaults write com.brassmonkery.Multitouch oneTapLeftMaxX -float 0.5 defaults write com.brassmonkery.Multitouch oneTapRightMinX -float 0.5

0.5 is the default for both of those, of course. Restart the app after executing those with the values you want.

Let me know if you need any further explanation on them.
