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

 

Sigh.

Clicking is not a gesture. That is my opinion. And three-finger clicks
can be made to co-exist with all the current gestures in Unity as my fix
(above) shows.

The fix I proposed in June is nearly perfect. Certainly it seems perfect
on Mac hardware and just needs some minor tweaking to avoid breaking
some Dells etc.

It would be very unfortunate for Ubuntu and Unity if we abandoned this.
We probably don't want to give people more reasons to not use Unity.

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.
