mouse direction setting on headless (mouse less) mac

I have a mini that's running headless and mouseless. I connect to it through TeamViewer.

All is great - except... The mouse direction defaults to Natural and I'm old school.

Since the machine has no physical mouse attached there's no mouse settings panel to change the direction on.

So - anyone have a guess of how to change the setting?

Thanks,

Steve

Solution 1:

You can do it from Terminal using

defaults write -g com.apple.swipescrolldirection -bool FALSE

TRUE to reverse that call & set back to 'natural'

You can test the current value using

defaults read -g com.apple.swipescrolldirection
