Sure. ;-) But multi button mouses are something normal (and these with middle button are something typical for at least five years) and we already have some signals in API that propagate information about clicks done using other buttons (for example for tool tip previews). I'm thinking mostly about middle button, I'm using it in at least two applets now and to make it work I need to use event handlers in applet (it only displays icon so this is not big problem) and this has some disadvantages. Mostly that without adding some code that is already used in IconWidget after dragging applet using middle click "action" will be also fired (IconWidget checks click position). _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
