Has anyone here used UCIEA or variants?
If you're on Windows, do have a look at TouchCursor and / or SpaceFN. They basically allow you to use the spacebar for anything you're doing with AltGr - so much more efficient. Source: over 1 year ago

Advice needed: K4 is perfect, but I need low profile
Would recommend a 60% if you don’t mind making and using layers using Touchcursor which doesn’t require any coding and doesn’t trigger anti heat software if you play online games. Source: about 2 years ago

An Open Source Mouse and Trackpad Utility for Mac
I've used Smooze [1] in the past. It has a ton of features, but I really just need it for turning off mouse acceleration and making the scroll wheel usable. Glad to see an open source option. [1] https://smooze.co/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago
MacOS improvement discussion
Smooze is the best app I have found to make using mac with a non-mac mouse even remotely usable. Really wish Apple would care a little more about mouse support. Source: about 1 year ago
MacOS and middle mouse button
Mac unfortunately isn’t the best at supporting third party mice and their additional buttons, for your specific case, the only app that I know of that offers a similar option would be smooze. Source: about 1 year ago
I want the middle click on my mouse to bring up the context menu (Basically I want what the right-click on Windows does) Is anyone able to tell me how to do this? I am amazed at how hard I have found trying to find an answer to this ! Thank you.
What mouse are you using? - SteerMouse is a nice app that can remap buttons. - Smooze I think also had some options for buttons. Source: over 1 year ago
