Thanks for the explanation, Paul! So you are trying to make Coot work on Mac touchpad, which makes sense. Hopefully you can include configuration options in future releases.

Left-click is for picking, right-mouse click-and-drag is for rotating the view [1] Shift right-mouse for zoom (also chording left-mouse and right-mouse does zoom). However, on a Mac, at the moment, rotating the view is also on left-mouse (I don't know how to do "right-mouse" click-and-drag on the trackpad - or even if it's possible). Coot should be able to distinguish between trackpad and mouse usage on a Mac (but it doesn't at the moment). Is this new pattern designed by purpose? Yes, I've put quite a lot of thought into it. If so, is there an option in Preference to switch it back to traditional settings (hold right click for Zoom and left click for rotating)? I thought that this question might come up :-) Eventually, I plan to have all key presses and mouse actions configurable - but that is not how it is today. Paul.
