About LinearMouse

LinearMouse is a utility for tuning how your mouse and trackpad behave on a Mac. It keeps controls for scrolling, pointer speed and buttons in one place.

It helps people who use both a mouse and a trackpad on a Mac. You can keep natural scrolling on the trackpad while reversing it on the mouse, fine-tune pointer acceleration and speed, or turn acceleration off entirely, and remap buttons and scroll actions to shortcuts and gestures.

Highlights

  • Profiles that apply per device, per app and per display
  • Separate scrolling behavior for mouse and trackpad, including reversed scrolling
  • Pointer acceleration and speed controls, with the option to turn acceleration off
  • Button remapping to shortcuts, media controls and Mission Control
  • Translated through the community on Crowdin
