Customize region recognized as "middle click"

[carlos1w]

I find that the region that middle recognizes as "middle click" is too narrow, and about 50% of the time it thinks I "right clicked". It would be very desirable if this could be user-configured, or at the very least with two options "normal" and "fat fingers". :)

Thanks for the feedback. Update to v1.8 within the app or at https://middleclick.app

There is now a checkbox for a wider center area. The checkbox is automatically enabled for fresh installs of the app.

The background on this:
In previous versions of macOS, a right click would override the middle click and there was no way to prevent that with the way the app works. I revisited this a few months ago and realized that macOS changed this behavior, and now Middle does have the capability to prevent right clicks. So I have added this option for macOS 12+.

If you want to tweak these values yourself, here are the terminal commands:

defaults write com.knollsoft.Middle oneCenterClickMinX -float 0.34
defaults write com.knollsoft.Middle oneCenterClickMaxX -float 0.66

where 0 is left edge & 1 is right edge. Restart the app after executing.

This is fantastic. Love the ability to tweak with defaults write. Excellent work, rxhanson!
