Message #17096
Re: Getting Trackpad Support in before feature freeze?
True, but it is quite some time ago, although not a first
announcement. I have not seen if any new changes has been made after
that. Also the patch adds an alternative pan/zoom mode, and still has
the old style (almost unaffected). In the old mode, I think he swapped
the actions of the ctrl+scroll and shift+scroll buttons. That is all
as I understand it for the old mode.
The new mode addes better trimming for those wierdass-magic input
devices and thereby gives an option for people who like default
horizontal and verticall scroll is panning.
