Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/114

Magic Trackpad gestures do not work on controlling the second mac. I've tried resetting trackpad settings on both devices but that didn't help. Can you please please add this feature?

Running on MacOS 10.14 Beta (18A365a)

Barrier Version

1.9.π

This is a tall order given that I don't have a trackpad (or a Mac at the moment). I also don't see it being a widely-used feature. Sorry :)

@walker0643 I would really love to have this feature as well. Any idea how hard it would be to implement? Maybe you can provide some suggestions on how it could be added?

It was a big thing in synergy and it’s definitely painful when using multiple Macs: https://github.com/symless/synergy-core/issues/2905

Please support this feature ASAP! Scrolling up and down with the trackpad seems to work though!

I was using Magic Tackpad Utilities in combination with Sharemouse, which used to work (Windows - server, and Mac - client). However recent updates in Sharemouse, for some reason, stopped this from working, and they're not much help when I asked.

So, I'm pretty sure this can be achieved with Barrier (in combination with Magic Trackpad Utilities or similar). We just need some enterprising coder to see how to get these gestures working across the devices :)
