Swap middle and right click on CadMouse on MacOS (All of them)

Post by AttilaTheHunk »

Hi everyone,
I have been looking for a way to swap middle and right click so I can keep right clicking with my middle finger like a civilised human :)
3Dconnexion support told me this is not possible in the Mac OS drivers for the mice at the moment and didn't know if it will be implemented.
Luckily there is a great app called Steermouse that lets you customise all buttons (and everything else mouse related).
It's 20 bucks for the license, but well worth it as it makes the great CadMouse series usable.

Link to the app here:

I was looking for a way to change the middle and right click buttons as well when I found your post. I downloaded steermouse, and it alerted me about a conflict with Karabiner-Elements, which is an excellent program that I have used for keyboard customizations. I never thought about using Karabiner-Elements for mouse customizations, but it turns out it has the ability to change mouse buttons and do other mouse and keyboard customizations. So if anyone is looking for another options, Karabiner-Elements also works well for this issue.
