Sculpt Comfort Mission Control Save

Switch desktops on your Mac with any mouse

Project README

What is it?

It's an app that lets you switch between virtual desktops on your Mac. With a mouse! And not only with Sculpt Comfort, any mouse will do. But you really want a mouse with at least two additional buttons.

Note for Catalina users

Since SCMC doesn't support Catalina at the moment, you might want to use a solution by @ephemient. See this comment.

Important 10.14 Mojave information

Due to security enhancements in Mojave, it's not currently possible to use SCMC with SIP enabled. You must keep it disabled to continue using this app.

Installation

  1. Install Loader. This is probably a one-time setup as this component is unlikely to change soon.
    1. Disable SIP
    2. Copy SCMC Loader.osax to /System/Library/ScriptingAdditions
    3. [pre-10.14 only] Enable SIP
  2. Install a config (see Configuration folder)
  3. Run Sculpt Comfort Mission Control.app

Contributing

Contributions are highly welcomed. You can help the project by:

  • Adding more details to readme
  • Fixing typos, grammar and spelling mistakes etc.
  • Code contributions. Take a thorough approach here. The best way to make a code contribution is to discuss the idea before actually starting to code.
  • Tell me if it works with your mouse. Just:
    1. Either create a pull request. It should contain a config and an update to the readme.
    2. Or create an issue. I will then add a config to the repo, and the model name to the readme.

While the above are direct contributions, there are other ways to help the project:

  • Star this repo ⭐. It really motivates me to continue improving the app!
  • Tell a friend

Which macOS versions are supported?

10.12+. Support for earlier versions is dropped.

Which mice are supported?

As stated earlier, the app should be able to work with any mouse, there are no artificial restrictions to this. However, here's the list of tested models:

  • Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse (of course)
  • Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Mouse (a config is missing though, contact me and we'll make one)
  • A 5-button No Name mouse

What happened here, an update?

This is version 2, a complete rewrite of the app.

Although it's a minimal working release which lacks some important features, it can already do everything v1 can but better! To be specific, you will benefit from moving to v2 because:

  • You don't need lldb and developer tools
  • Because of the above, it starts much faster. You won't even notice
  • You only need to disable SIP for an initial installation
  • If the app handles a mouse event, other apps don't receive it anymore (with a proper config). With the previous version, it happened for some button configurations. No more unwanted navigation in browsers or wherever else.
