The game advertises that I can pick up a die by left clicking. (check)
And them while holding said die, I can tap the right button to add more of said die.
This doesn't work with an Apple Magic Mouse.
Is there a work-around?


Also, is there no way of copy and pasting text INTO Fantasy Grounds?


TIA

Make sure you are using the Magic Mouse right click functionality; https://www.howtogeek.com/447109/how-to-right-click-on-any-mac-using-a-trackpad-mouse-or-keyboard/

Copying and Pasting text is done via keyboard commands (ctrl-c, ctril-v in Windows), there is no mouse command so you will have to use the Mac equivalent.

Thanks for the reply.

I can right click in general without issue.
The problem is how to right click WHILST holding down a left click.
Doesn't work with a Magic Mouse.

And I'm already using the Mac key commands for paste. If I type a character's background externally in, let's say, Word, I can select and copy the text with command c, but when I try to command v in the FG character sheet, all I get is a v.

If your using Fantasy Grounds Classic then to paste is control v instead of command, since it is in the wine wrapper and uses Window’s keyboard commands.
