Waki Mouse / FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Which permission does it need?
Accessibility, so it can adjust scroll events. It is asked for when you turn adjustments on, with a card that names the System Settings pane and a Check Again button.
Does it interfere with games or drawing tablets?
It only touches scroll events, and only from the device types you configure. The master switch turns the engine off in one click if you want to rule it out.
Does the wheel multiplier change the trackpad?
No. It applies to mouse wheel events only. The trackpad and Magic Mouse keep their native speed.
What about Logitech MX and other smooth wheels?
They are wheel mice to Waki Mouse: the mouse direction and the multiplier apply. Free-spin mode works.
Does it run in the menu bar?
Yes. Waki Mouse is a menu bar app first. Choose menu bar, Dock or both, keep it running when the window closes, and open at login.
