  • fixes bug with window moving stuff. Should now work again with every gesture (but for the magic mouse three finger touch at the very top and two finger touch at the very top are recommended (tiptaps should also work pretty good), for the touchpad you should use the modifierkey solution atm…)
  • apps should now be sorted alphabetically (global is always on top)
  • may fix problem with leftclick action in spaces / expose

    Could be me, but using the latest version (shows 0.5146 in the lower right corner) Two Finger TipTaps don’t seem to work anymore…

  2. 2. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    @Douwe, mhh they work here. Are they recognized in live view? Which action have you set to them?

  3. 3. Douwe Says:

    Working again, strange…

  4. 4. Johny Says:

    Die alphabetische Sortierung geht noch nicht ganz richtig. iTunes steht immer ganz hinten, schätze wegen der ASCII Zeichen, denn kleine Buchstaben sind größer als große…

  5. 5. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    @Johny danke, hab grad die methode localizedCaseInsensitiveCompare entdeckt ;-) mit der sollte es dann ab der nächsten version richtig funktionieren

    The window moving/resizing is very buggy, and there is no way to turn it off! The only way I figured out to do it is to disable all the checkmarks. There should be one checkmark at the top to disable the whole thing.

    Anyway, it needs more options, like what modifier keys to use, and the ability to only work with so many fingers (I would like to activate it with three fingers).

  7. 7. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    @Aaron could you post what bugs you encountered, so I can fix it? You could already use it with three finger tap, but then it will move until you hit 3 finger tap again
    Mh and moving should stop if you uncheck the one box “move windows while holding”, ok the resizing is an other checkbox but did you have to do anything else to deactivate it?

  8. 8. Johny Says:

    Ist das gewollt, dass die Fenster beim Verschieben in den Vordergrund kommen (mit gesetztem Häkchen) und beim Ändern der Größe nicht?

    Ist mir nur so nebenbei aufgefallen :)

  9. 9. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    hehe ne hab ich nur vergessen beim resizing ;-) werds noch einfügen

  10. 10. Johny Says:

    Touchpad:

    Das Vergrößern geht trotzdem weiter obwohl man die alt-Taste loslässt, das geht beim Verschieben mit der ctrl-Taste nicht. Da stoppt die Bewegung sobald man die Taste loslässt. Mit der FN Option bleibt das Problem bestehen.

    Vielleicht kann man das iwie vereinheitlichen. Sorry für Doppelpost

  11. 11. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    Ah danke, habs gefixt wird in der nächsten version passen denke ich.

  12. 12. Justin Says:

    Wow, I just tried the new version and it’s great. I love the 2/3 finger tap at the very top to move or resize windows.

  13. 13. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    @Johny try 0.5147

  14. 14. Aaron Meurer Says:

    @Andreas: I don’t see that option anywhere.

    And if you want, I can send you the crash reports. Would you rather me email them somewhere or that I post them in the forum?

    Also, enabling the fn option cause my fn key to lock up, but it could be related to me having my fn key remapped to control using Remap4MacBook, since I have independently had that same bug before.

  15. 15. Aaron Meurer Says:

    Oh, and I guess you are right about the checkboxes, but it is a little unclear. I would expect the on-off check boxes to be at the top and for the relevant controls to dim when they are turned off.

    c.f. the Apple UI guidelines.

  16. 16. Johny Says:

    Was mir noch fehlt um komplett von SizeUp los zu kommen, ist eine Aktion um das Fenster mittig zu platzieren. Wenn ich z.B. den Finder oder Mail maximiere, will ich nach einer Weile das Fenster wieder klein haben, also zentriert auf .ca 60% Breite und Höhe..

    Das geht mit einem Swipe down mit Alt-Modifier besonders bequem
    und mit Swipe up mit alt Maximieren.

    Aber Eins nach dem Anderen :) du hast ja Klausuren demnächst

  17. 17. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    @Aaron you can mail them to bettertouchtool@boastr.net thank you!

  18. 18. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    Ah and regarding the fn lockup – I only read the state of the key (using NSEvents modifierFlags), so this can’t be directly related to BTT.

    Hi Andreas,

    I set a three-finger click to be a middle-click so that I could open new tabs in Firefox/Safari/Chrome without having to hold command. So far, this has worked, but only after 2 middle clicks. I will put my mouse over the link and do a three-finger click, but nothing will happen. Then I’ll move the mouse a bit and do another three-finger click, and a new tab will open. This is true across all the browsers, so I’m pretty sure it has something to do with BTT.

    Also, I’m using tip tap left and tip tap right for tab switching in Firefox and NetNewsWire. In both applications, as with the three-finger click, I have to do 2 tip taps before the gesture is recognized. After the software recognizes the gesture, however, I can do any number of tip taps in a row and the software will register each one. As soon as I do any other gesture, the software reverts to the default requirement, making me do a gesture twice.

    Hope you can look into this,
    Ethan

  20. 20. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    @ethan could you check if instead of using middleclick, cmd+click works everytime for opening tabs? Also try the current alpha 0.5147 as it may be able to fix the middleclick problem.

    (the problem is caused by a program that uses the same techniques for fetching clicks as BTT and so conflicts…)

    For tiptaps, maybe you are too fast the first time? You have to wait a little before touching the mouse with the second finger)

  21. 21. Ethan G Says:

    Guess I posted too soon, alpha 0.5147 fixed these issues. Thanks!

  22. 22. bobby Says:

    I have a problem that’s really bugging me. I use TipTap left/right for volume up/down respectively. And they are really really easy to trigger. I have one finger on the left/right side of the mouse and the other one doesnt even touch it, it just like hovers above the mouse and the volume goes down. I have the TipTap senstivity already all the way to Hard Touch, but it doesn’t help. And I think I have the same problem with the Two finger tiptap, but it doen’t happen as often.

  23. 23. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    @bobby OH I see the error (the slider value isn’t used at all atm) will fix it.

  24. 24. pwetpwet Says:

    Hey Andreas, I also have a very strange bug with Fn occurring sometimes.
    I have set as global actions for my mbp touchpad ’3-fingers swipe up’ for cmd+W and Fn+’3-fingers swipe up’ for cmd+Q. but sometimes (not always) in Safari (and Safari only) the gesture without Fn triggers cmd+Q anyway – I can notice it easily since I am using cmd+W shortcut to close tabs and if 2+ tabs are open, cmd+Q by default displays a warning pop-up.
    Thanks for your help, hope my message is clear enough :)

  25. 25. Andreas Hegenberg Says:

    @pwetpwet could you send me a export of your gestures to bettertouchtool@boastr.net? I’ll then check whats going on.
