Middle 1.15 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesMiddle is a small utility from developer Ryan Hanson that adds a proper middle click to the Mac trackpad and Magic Mouse. macOS never shipped a middle button, which can be annoying, because the middle click opens links in new tabs, closes tabs quickly and pans the view in many design and CAD apps. Middle fills that gap with one focused job, runs quietly in the background and stays out of your way the rest of the time.

- Click with three fingers on a trackpad or Magic Mouse to trigger a middle click
- Tap with three fingers or four fingers on a trackpad
