Disable magicprefs3/14/2023 People who claim to have just "learned" not to cause unintended inputs through sheer will of force are being somewhat disingenuous. In practice the behavior of the scroll/zoom on Magic Mouse in AE is, absolutely, twitchy and unpredictable. This was a subjective call, didn't have to be that way. The scroll-wheel has been consciously hardcoded to zoom in AE (evidently a poor decision) - whereas this functionality is not so of most other apps. Therefore Magic Mouse will most certainly be used with AE more often than other mice. The mouse ships with the very Apple machine AE was written to run on. No carpet was pulled out from under Adobe here by surprise. AE was written specifically for this hardware condition. With all due respect to the dismissive "buy another mouse" contingent, that's a ridiculous "fix", and this is indeed just the result of slightly weak planning/coding on Adobe's part. I find myself using the free iMovie software that came with the Mac for anything simple, goes much faster when you don't have to learn a whole new set of shortcuts and commands from all the other software. Not sure why they hide/show menu items by default in After Effects when every other program in the world uses them for zoom levels.Ĭould sure use help in these areas to make the program less intimidating for newer users. Related: I also really miss the Cmd + 0 and Cmd + 1 shortcuts for fitting the zoom to the screen or putting it at 100% (especially when I try to scroll and end up at some weird zoom level instead). I'm sure there's experienced After Effects users with specialized hardware that might like the feature but, at least for the sake of uniformity with the other Adobe Software, it would be great if it zoomed like the other programs at least as an option similar to the "Quark Shortcuts" that let Indesign steal users away from the dinosaur. So it's actually to just press Z and use the zoom tool. If it zoomed towards the cursor like the Alt+Cmd commands in the other programs I could use it, but it just dumbly zooms into the center of the screen and I have to hold space and pan over to wherever I wanted to zoom into anyway. Now I'm in After Effects and zooming in with the scroll wheel makes no sense to me. Photoshop changed it up where you don't drag a zoom box anymore.and it still works beautifully because it still zooms where you want when you want. I have years of experience using Illustrator, Indesign, Photoshop, etc and all these programs have the same zooming and panning methods hold Alt+scroll wheel or do Cmd+Space, Cmd+Alt+Space. For designers switching from Quark this was a huge incentive, not having to learn where everything is since Quark and Indesign shared a lot of features and commands, albeit with different shortcuts. Select the green checkmark icon at the same time.One of the more brilliant things the Indesign team did back in the day was add a preset in the keyboard shortcuts options for "Quark" shortcuts.

If you find a good solution, you should help your fellow OpenOffice users, the members of this forum, by explaining what you did. I can't personally recommend any since I don't use them myself and am not connected in any way with their developers. People have created independent (non-Apple) tools to manage the mouse on MacOS. Thus you're asking about how to control the mouse on your Apple computer and you should be asking Apple or looking at an Apple forum. Q00: Where are OpenOffice option settings on a Mac?
