Re: Can we convert to a wiki format

 

Middle click on a normal device pastes any highlighted or copied text, so I
think this is normal behavior.  If you're looking for scrolling then swipe
with two fingers.

I'm not Tuomas, but I don't think his software has this control (except
maybe being able to disable middle click?).
