Magic mouse 2 and Finale
Posted: Tue Sep 25, 2018 3:20 am
On my new iMac with Finale 25 I have an incredible amount of wasted time because of my Magic Mouse 2. For those that are not Mac users, this is the gadget that allows you to "swipe" with a few fingers to go sideways in apps, or to move between pages when web surfing.
I can just barely touch the thing and the score will skitter off to the end, beginning, or wherever it chooses to go. This causes me to stop my work and manually navigate back to where I was working. It also causes problems with speedy entry as the slightest touch will cause speedy entry to sometimes cancel.
I hoping someone else will have had this problem and can provide a workaround. I don't know if it's possible to turn off the mouse gestures for just a single app such as Finale, leaving the gestures to work in other apps where they are needed.
Sorry to bore you Windows folks with this, but I'm hoping that someone can offer some help.
