I've created an event for two-finger click (command + click), but half the time the native trackpad action is triggered as well. This means that two-finger clicking on a browser link will open it in a new tab and also in the current tab (right clicking is disabled in system settings). Is there a fix for this?
this was not an issue in MacOS 14.5
for BetterTouchTool you always need to disable the system gestures you want to override (except for pinch & rotate) in system settings
//edit: ah you mean a left-click is triggered? (I just tried that here with v4.672 and the current Sequoia beta, but can't reproduce it)
Yes, the two-finger click also activates the single click response; I could not find a MacOS trackpad settings configuration that made two-finger actions work correctly.
Reproducing this should be simple:
You should see that the link will open in the current tab and a new tab half of the time.
This is BTT v4.672
Edit: It's not half the time. I've found that this bug happens whenever you click the trackpad in a different location (i.e, it happens the first click, then not again until you click on different spots on the trackpad).
Edit 2: Actually, I've installed BTT again and it works fine now.

Nevermind, I was mistaken about having solved the problem; it still registers as both a left-click and a command + left-click following the pattern from my first edit. This is some weird bug with BTT, but it makes two-finger clicks almost useless so it would be nice to get this resolved.
Unfortunately I haven't been able to reproduce it yet, it seems to work fine here ;-(
Are you on the Sequoia Release Candidate version?
I encountered similar problem. After upgrading macos (and also upgrading BTT), using two finger click (or force click) will trigger the 'secondary click'.
macos 15
I tried to upgrade to the latest alpha version, but I still have this problem.
