My favorite BTT mapping: 3 finger click (touchpad and/or magic mouse) generates a middle click event.
I have no idea how people open and close browser tabs without this, since browsers have great middle click response but Apple pointing devices don't natively generate such clicks.
- igpay 7y agoCommand clicking a link will also open it in a new tab.
- sysbin 7y agoI think command+t and command+w are usually my go to methods. I don't have to move my hands from my keyboard.
- guiambros 7y agoI also love BTT, but opening/closing tabs is much faster using ⌘-T and ⌘-W.
- _eLRIC 7y agoAlso using cmd+L to enter the address bar and then ALT + Return to open the selected address in a new tab
- hunter2_ 7y agoI meant opening a link, not a blank tab. And closing any tab, not necessarily the focused tab. I should have specified, but I assumed I implied it as this is what the existing browser middle click support achieves.
- fphilipe 7y agoI have two similar mappings, four finger tap is a middle click (or cmd+click) and four finger click is cmd+shift+click. That way if I want to open a link in a new tab I can choose between opening it behind the current tab or in front.
- ikornaselur 7y agoI just realised I've been using this with BTT for months now, it's so natural to me that I just assumed that it was built in. Just checked and saw that it's the only touchpad addition I have in BTT. It's SO convenient.
