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

 

Chase,

Just a suggestion: If this is the future, it might be best to set the
two finger tap to middle click by default, at least on systems with
physical buttons. The rationale on this is that right-clicks are easy to
do through other mechanisms (right button or menu key), while middle-
clicks are more difficult to synthesize on most PC hardware.

Cheers,

--Ian

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.
