Coming from LinearMouse
LinearMouse is a great free tool for mouse settings. Clavimo does the scrolling part and adds keyboard rules, mouse chords and trackpad gestures in one app.
What you get with Clavimo
- Mouse wheel and trackpad scrolling set separately: reverse, lines, pixels, accelerated or smooth.
- Hold a key and click a mouse button to switch Spaces, open apps or send shortcuts.
- Trackpad gestures and full keyboard remapping.
What LinearMouse does that Clavimo does not (yet)
- Pointer speed and acceleration per device. Planned for 1.3.
- Scrolling settings per mouse. Planned for 1.3.
- Settings per display.
How to switch
- Download Clavimo and open it; the first-launch guide asks for the two permissions it needs.
- Recreate your most-used rules from the templates in Rules, Keyboard and Trackpad. Most take a click.
- Quit LinearMouse or turn off the overlapping parts, so input is not changed twice. Clavimo warns when it notices it running.
An importer for LinearMouse settings is planned for version 1.6.
