Recently, my magic mouse gave up after almost 10 years of loyal service!
I picked up a logitech mx master 3s, and really like it!
One of the things I miss is the ability to scroll horizontally and switch spaces with 2 finger scroll.
I though of having a button switch its scroll behaviour, but I got used to using the buttons for other things(and I do not like mouse gestures!)
Is it possible with BTT to achieve one of the 2 behavious explained below? I would prefer the first one, but the second is fine too!
when my mouse is over a part of the screen which has horizontally scrollable content(e.g. final cut timeline) use it to scroll that, but when my mouse doesnt hover over such content, use the scroll view to scroll between desktops/spaces on my mac
if I scroll just a bit, scroll horizontally, if I scroll more than a bit(if possible to set by a delta or so) scroll between desktop/space
The Advanced trigger conditions could help you to solve this. E.g. mouse position at the bottom of your screen can trigger space switch while horizontally scrolling.
I have solved this UseCase in the past with a advanced trigger condition.
When I hold down the right mouse button AND scroll horizontally I switch spaces. Single horizontal scroll scrolls in documents.
Another Idea is to use one of your mouse buttons as a gesture button. Holding this button and move the mouse right/left could switch spaces. Move mouse up down could trigger other actions, e.g. Mission Control.
@Volker thank you for the suggestion!
I will try the advanced trigger with a mouse click and scroll.
Altough I would prefer having the ability to distinguish between scroll amount, and have a different action based on that, perhaps this will work!
