Is there a gesture in the magic mouse that can do the Epose All Windows option?
 
so say i can put a gesture with 5 fingers for expose? can it do that sort of thing?
 
Yeah best thing to do is download it and see. It can do no harm. I've been using it for a few weeks on 3 different macs. No problems here.
 
Ive been using BTT for a while and I love it.

The earlier versions were a bit rough but the ones out now are excellent and they update all the time.

I use it to add expose w/ three finger tap or as a third button when working in Maya.

I don't think you can do a 5 finger swipe but you can do 3 fingers... or "whole hand on mouse" or some other stuff like that.. Works well, frequent updates.
 
I've been using BTT for a couple of weeks, ever since I got my Magic Mouse. In fact, BTT is the reason I decided to get the MM.

The only real quirk I've found is that if you use fast user switching, BTT locks up your computer. So, it is a single user application.

I'm not having that problem -- at least I haven't seen it. Is it if you have fast user switching available or if you actually switch users? (I'm wondering if I've switched users since I've installed BTT :confused: and hesitant to do it now!)

It happens if you actually switch users. And it doesn't happen immediately. It happens after maybe 10 minutes of use. Be prepared to do a power cycle to recover. Sleep doesn't recover.
 
BTT is as stable as it goes now, a lot of the bugs are being ironed out and a new version is coming tomorrow with the ability to add modifier keys! :D
 
How IS the Magic Mouse? I'm looking for a mouse for working with Photoshop (so it has to be extremely accurate), what do you guys suggest?
 
Just got a Magic Mouse and I installed BetterTouchTool. I just love this application! It's something that should have been provided directly by Apple...

My config:
3 fingers swipe down: Expose
3 fingers swipe up: Desktop

Both to gimmick the 4 fingers swipe up and down of the MultiTouch trackpad.

3 fingers tap: Dashboard
3 fingers click: Cmd-Click so I can open a new tabs with links in FireFox.

It's enough for now! ;)

Yeah i dont understand why you have to go thru a third party developer to get something that Apple can easily do.

Well if Apple did everything what would all the other 3rd party developers do? Become burglars? :D
