Are you using my gerbview_gal branch and testing with gerbview? That is the only place where this feature is enabled. If you would like to test it outside of that branch, change m_panWithRightButton to true and rebuild.
I don't have a Windows laptop to test with at the moment, but I would believe that the behavior of trackpads is different -- this will only work if (like Apple trackpads) the trackpad translates a "press with two fingers, then drag" as a "right button drag" event. -Jon On Wed, Sep 13, 2017 at 1:41 PM, Andrey Kuznetsov <kandre...@gmail.com> wrote: > FYI, Regarding panning with 2 fingers, it does not work on my Lenovo > laptop running windows 8. > Only zoom works, 2 finger up-down motion. > > On Wed, Sep 13, 2017 at 6:53 AM, Jon Evans <j...@craftyjon.com> wrote: > >> Hi Orson and Bernhard, >> >> 1) If the left-click pan setting is enabled, it does conflict with >> left-click dragging (to make a group selection, for example).
