An idea for cursor control

Post by serebei251 »

This is just an idea I had... could you make it so the screen is like a laptop multitouch pad ?

like a single tap = click
double tap hold = drag & drop
tap with two fingers = middle click
tap with three fingers = right click
etc...

This way you don't have your finger above the cursor, you can scan the screen easily, you don't need to use buttons to right click...

That's a great idea but with out the middle click.

1 point (short time) = click
1 point and drag = drag & drop
2 points = right click with the coordinates of the second point

Thanks, I didn't know wether some games use a middle click or not.
If not then of course you're right.

edit : but I think that a double tap (tap two times rapidly) + drag is better for drag & drop because that way you can scan the screen whith 1 point drag (which is useful)
