I've not tried xleap on a Mac unfortunately so can't help too much. However,
one question concerns the mouse you are using. Is it a single button mouse.
If so you may have more joy using a USB multibutton mouse so that you can
'right' click, use the middle button etc. E.g. you can then use the middle
button to rotate, left button to draw/select, the right button to move and
both the middle and right buttons together to zoom.
I'm not sure if this will help but it worth a try.
Perhaps some Mac users can comment further.
All the best
Ross
