The Compatibility Challenge

Different macOS versions and trackpad settings handle Shift+scroll differently. Some reverse direction, others ignore it entirely, and some trigger horizontal scrolling unpredictably. This inconsistency makes hotbar management unreliable.

How the Mod Standardizes Behavior

This mod creates a single, predictable scroll behavior by converting all Shift+scroll input into standard vertical scrolling. Regardless of your macOS version or trackpad settings, the result is always the same.

Benefits

  • Works consistently across macOS Monterey, Ventura, Sonoma, and newer versions
  • Trackpad and mouse scroll behavior unified
  • No need to adjust Minecraft settings per system
  • Hotbar cycling works the same way every time you play

Once installed, you can rely on Shift+scroll to work predictably, eliminating frustration from version-to-version or device-to-device differences.
