Re: [Blind-Computing] What is keyboard equivalent for Drag Drop
Will have to try it out a bit more, but the only possible issue with using the right mouse button key would be that it would normally have a slightly different end result since in some applications if you drag/drop using right button it would bring up a form of context menu at the end of that process where something like paste might be there, but not always.
