I would like to achieve the following behaviour in Mac OS Tahoe:
Normal Mouse Scroll UP + Command modifier = Command +
Normal Mouse Scroll DOWN + Command modifier = Command -
I need this to enlarge text font size in browser or text editors
I should not be that difficult, but it does not work. I am still in the trial mode.
If I cannot make this working I dont need it.
Now I know now why my BTT actions that I created (see above) do not work.
I had the Logitech Options + app for Mac OS installed, because I own a Logitech MX Master 3S.
Unfortunately Logitech Options+ app intercepts the scroll events at a low level, which prevents BetterTouchTool from seeing them. BTT has to actually receive the scroll input to map it, and if another app is grabbing it first, it won’t work.
When I uninstalled Logitech Options+, my BTT actions started to work just fine.
I hate Options+ it’s a huge app, very fat, 1.7GB in size, just to control some mouse buttons, and still does not do what we need, like for example using modifier keys with mouse or thumb wheel.
It's too bad, I cannot do with BTT what I wanted to achieve because it cannot coexist with Options+.
If you guys have any idea, or a workaround, I am open to suggestions.
Thank you very much
Titus
My "workaround" is that I don't use Logitech Options+ at all and just use BTT (for some UseCases in combination with Better-Mouse). Be aware that deinstalling of the Logitech software can be tricky - there is a detailed how to on the Better-Mouse website.
Andreas will release the fist version of the basic support for most Logitech Mouses next week - this should help to get even more rid of Options+. (See quote below)
What are your UseCases that you currently need Options+ for?
Yep now is a good time to mention all features you use in Logitech Options+ because I'm currently working hard on adding support for all of the important features directly into BTT!

yes thanks a lot, although I am still it the trial period, I offer myself to be a beta tester for the app because I plan to get rid of Options+.
I will send you soon all the features that I used in Options+, at least all the features that I wind useful.
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I didn’t see yet the version that has support for Logitech mice, is it coming soon?
