Betty LaRue Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Anyone else on a Mac have to chase the little circles when prepping images for sale? I noticed this years ago when I switched from a PC to Mac. When I try to tick the boxes, they jump away from my curser. Sometimes I have to stab at it 2-4 times. Just once in awhile, mind you, but enough to drive me nuts sometimes. I don't have far to drive. It happens mostly on the one that says "Is this photograph digitally altered?" Makes me take another look at my image in case the box know more than I do about my image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MircoV Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Betty, I know it has some delay but now it is really coming close and the new contributor tools should make your problems past. Lets hope to see them soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty LaRue Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 I hope! When? 2020? I'm beginning to think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.Chapman Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I found when switching from Windows to Mac that I have to be much more precise when pointing to and clicking on check boxes or radio buttons. It seems in Windows that if the tip of the mouse pointer is near to a checkbox it just guesses what you're trying to do. On a Mac one has to be precise. I soon got used to it though. Another thing that happens quite often is that I find the the mouse "focus" is in a different window. The first click just moves the mouse focus into the window I want, the second click actually ticks the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 If you are using a magic mouse then you may find things move around as your fingers come too close to the mouse top as they move past. My problem is with right click. I find my index finger is sometimes too far back and I lose the highlighted text and have to start again.

Betty LaRue Posted November 16, 2016 Author Share Posted November 16, 2016 I think you're being a little optimistic Betty to think we'll get the new tools in 2020. I've heard we'll get them along with a re-rank and a sensible infringement reporting system in 2023. Geoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty LaRue Posted November 16, 2016 Author Share Posted November 16, 2016 Glad to know I'm not alone. Chasing the buttons is rather like......chasing a mouse... Edit. Allan, the finger too far back thing...me, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
