Fix Shift + Scroll Hotbar Switching on macOS

Problem

On macOS, holding Shift while scrolling your mouse wheel doesn't switch between hotbar slots like it does on Windows and Linux. This makes inventory management slower and inconsistent.

Solution

McMouser Mod automatically fixes this behavior. Once installed, Shift + Scroll will work as expected:

1. Hold Shift on your keyboard

2. Scroll your mouse wheel up or down

3. Your hotbar selection will now change to adjacent slots

Version Notes

The mod handles both older and newer Minecraft versions:

  • On versions before 1.20.2, Shift + Scroll is simply enabled
  • On 1.20.2 and later, the mod also corrects scroll direction reversal that occurred in that update

No configuration needed—the fix applies automatically when you load the game.
