Hello People,
I’m trying to create a trigger in BetterTouchTool for use within a certain app, where holding down the Option key and scrolling the mouse wheel up or down will simulate pressing "Option + Arrow Up" and "Option + Arrow Down" respectively. Here's what I've done so far:
- I selected the specific app in the app-specific settings to ensure these triggers only apply there.
- I chose 'Normal Mouse' as my input device.
- For the first trigger, I've set it to recognize "Option + Scroll Up." I used the "Record Mouse Button" feature and ended up with "Option + Arrow Up" for the scroll up action.
- In the action assignment, I chose a keyboard shortcut and specified "Option + Arrow Up."
This setup logically seems correct, and I would expect that every time I trigger "Option + Scroll Up," the assigned "Option + Arrow Up" action would occur. However, it does not work as intended. Interestingly, when I replace the scroll up action with any other mouse button action, like a left click, right click, or even middle click, the assigned keyboard action triggers correctly. The same issue occurs with the scroll down action.
Here's a screenshot of the macro setup for clarity:
Does anyone have know why the scroll action doesn’t trigger the assigned keyboard shortcut, while other mouse buttons do? And how to resolve this issue?
Many Thanks..
