Miscellaneous options

Login

When checking this option, Mouseposé will be added to the list of Login Items of your user account. Then Mouseposé will launch automatically as soon as you log into your Mac.

This option is very useful in combination with the Menu Bar Icon setting below. This will make sure that Mouseposé is always available for activation and will not clutter your Dock or screen. Only the small menubar icon will show that it is running and give you access in case you forgot the hotkey or need to change a setting.

Icon & Menu

You can choose wether you want Mouseposé to appear in the Mac OS X Dock, a menu bar item towards the right end of the menu bar or both. Enabling or disabling the Dock icon requires quitting and restarting Mouseposé for the new setting to take effect. Please also note that the Dock entry setting is global for all users of Mouseposé on your computer.

Software Update

By default, Mouseposé will check every week for updated versions of itself. Use the popup menu to control the interval or the button next to it to check for updates right away. Once an update is available a window will come up and inform you about new features, also giving you the option to download and install that new version.

If you are curious for pre-release versions as well, enable the button "Also get beta versions".

When you are running a beta version of Mouseposé, the application will always check daily for a newer version, including a beta version. You can manually turn of checking for beta versions once you have a final release installed.

Revert to Defaults

Clicking the Revert to Defaults button will discard all custom settings you may have applied and reset to the default values.
