Double Click Deck preset

Double Click Deck makes double clicks into inputs. Double click a mouse's side button 4 for Mission Control, side button 5 for Launchpad, or the middle button for Spotlight.

The Mac's mouse: the side and middle buttons, double clicked

Where it is in the app

It ships inside InputConfig: open the sidebar and look in its folder, or search for it. Activate it, or press Edit to see every row. It is also here as a file, identical apart from being inactive and ungrouped, for anyone who deleted theirs or wants it on another Mac.

3 rows. Button names are the Xbox / PlayStation pair the editor shows; a Switch Pro Controller fires by position. Options are the row settings that differ from the defaults.

Notes

  • Single clicks are safe. A single click keeps doing what it always did, because a double click only counts on the second click.
  • Trackpads. With tap to click on, a double tap on the trackpad counts as a double click too.

The single click stays yours, so a spare button gains a job without losing one.

Download

To add a downloaded preset: drop the file on InputConfig's Dock icon, or click the … button next to any preset in the sidebar, choose Import Preset File, and pick the file. It lands in the sidebar, ready to activate or edit. Any launch target inside a preset file is cleared on import; add one yourself in the editor if you want it.
