About:
DiscreteScroll is a utility that transforms continuous mouse scroll events into discrete line-by-line scrolling. This solves the issue of overly sensitive scrolling on certain mice and trackpads within macOS applications that do not properly handle high-resolution scroll inputs.
Key Features:
  • Transforms smooth scrolling to stepped scrolling
  • Configurable scroll step size
  • Runs in the background with low system overhead
  • Works system-wide across applications
Use Cases:
  • Fixing oversensitive scrolling on third-party mice
  • Improving navigation precision in CAD or design software
  • Standardizing scroll behavior across different input devices
Alternatives:
  • LinearMouse – More modern alternative with additional input customization features
  • SteerMouse – Paid utility with broader input device configuration options
