Implement independent scroll direction configuration
Under macOS it is possible to configure the scrolling direction of the trackpad and the mouse. The problem with these settings is that they are not independent of each other. The setting applies to both the trackpad and the mouse.
For many users, the trackpad works well with a natural scroll direction, while the mouse is a different story. Now, when a device like a MacBook is used with a mouse and the trackpad, one scroll direction always feels wrong, either on the mouse or the trackpad.
UnnaturalScrollWheels resolves this problem (https://github.com/ther0n/UnnaturalScrollWheels) but it would be nice if this functionality was also available in multitouch, so that two applications would not be needed for it.
Thanks for the feedback. I have this on my backlog already, but just haven't gotten to it yet.
Any work on this? I currently use Rectangle for window management and another app for scroll wheel direction. I would probably purchase a Multitouch license to cut down to one app.
It's still on my backlog, and I do still intend to implement this in some form, but I don't have a timeframe for it.
The reason is that when I started looking at this some time ago, I realized that it would likely snowball into more than I wanted to add into the app at the time. When I do roll this out, I think I'll scale back my plans and just make it as simple as possible.
