[Bug 754000] Re: 3 finger touch interferes with 3 finger click (middle click)

 

Fixed (in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics)! The patch to go in
debian/patches is attached...

  * Number of active touches can be less than number of active fingers/contacts
    so ask grail for the real number of fingers when clicking. This fixes
    3-finger clicks (middle click) when there are geis/grail clients active
    such as Unity. (LP: #754000)


** Patch added: "125_fix_all_multifinger_clicks.patch"
   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/754000/+attachment/2122439/+files/125_fix_all_multifinger_clicks.patch

** Package changed: unity (Ubuntu) => xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
(Ubuntu)

Bug description:
  as soon as i put down three fingers, the love handles appear. on the
  macbook pro a middle click is done with a 3 finger click. this is very
  low priority, and i could even see a wontfix. there's a simple work
  around to just not put all 3 fingers down at the same time and then
  click after all 3 are down.
