Hello,
I’m a new user of BetterTouchTool and I’m having a persistent conflict between "Normal Mouse" actions and "Mouse Gestures." I hope you can help me resolve this.
My Configuration:
- Normal Mice: I use Right-click + Scroll Wheel to trigger "Zoom In/Out" (Chrome).
- Mouse Gestures: I also use Right-click as the trigger to draw gestures.
The Problem:
Every time I finish a zoom operation (Right-click + Scrolling), BTT seems to "hang" in the gesture-drawing state. Even after I have fully released the right mouse button, BTT still behaves as if it is being held down.
As a result:
- A "ghost" drawing line appears on the screen as soon as I move my mouse after zooming.
- This happens even if I set "Minimum distance to recognize" to a high value (e.g., 50px). Once that distance is exceeded after zooming, the drawing line shows up despite the right button being physically released.
- It seems the "Right Button Up" event is being swallowed or ignored because it was part of a scroll combination.
What I've Tried:
- Increasing the activation distance/threshold (The line still appears after the movement threshold is met post-zoom).
- Using variables to track the zoom state.
What I want to achieve:
I want to keep Right-click for both functions. Ideally, if a Scroll event occurs while Right-click is held, the Mouse Gesture engine should be suppressed or reset immediately so that no drawing occurs when I release the button and move the mouse.

- Type of Mac: Apple Silicon
