      people have been complaining about the fact that apple's magic mouse is not good ergonomically. now someone has developed a fix for this problem. look it over at http://mmfixed.com/.

      on a different subject: has anyone found a way around the fact that the magic mouse lacks a scroll wheel? has any one found a way to orbit with it in sketchup?

          using BetterTouchTool you can add Single Finger Middle Click gesture as MiddleClick just for Sketchup app. it needs a bit of adjustment until you click on the middle but you can adjust where the middle zone starts/ends

          also using LiveView you can play and see in realtime where your fingers are on the mouse

            thanks, TBD. but what is LiveView? is it something one installs or a preference pane?

              it is a tool to track the fingers on the magic mouse available in BetterTouchTool

                I tried MagicPrefs and it works okay. The middle button for rotation can be simulate by two fingers tip. ( my choice )
