Re: [GRASS-user] v.digit mouse click emulation on macbook
I believe that control-click and option-click emulate the other buttons in X11, but you will need to experiment. Did you try any modifier keys?

Rigth click (two fingers on the touchpad + click) behaves like a middle click, and I cannot find any combination to emulate the right click. It looks like that I can use an environment variable to switch between right and middle clicks, but I would still lack one of the clicks.

Did you try any modifier keys? on the bottom left of the mac keyboard there are 3 modifier keys- from left to right: control, option, and command clicking while holding down the control button on the left emulates a left click (a no-op), clicking while holding down the middle of those keys (option) emulates a middle click, and clicking while holding down the right of those keys (command/ old 'apple' key?) emulates a right-click. hth, Hamish ___ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
Re: [GRASS-user] v.digit mouse click emulation on macbook
Indeed, Option-click and control-click don't do anything for me either. I'm sure this worked in the past, but I haven't used GRASS without a 3-button mouse on my Macs for a long time now, so I never noticed this problem returning. Though for me, two-finger tap on my MacBook does a right-click, not middle-click. ... Ah! X11 preferences - turn on Emulate 3 button mouse.

For instance, Command+click does not emulate the right click to close the line and emulates the left key adding a node. For instance, Option+ click does no emulate the middle click to undo a node and emulates the left key adding a node. On the contrary, two finger on the touchpad + click emulate the middle click to undo a node A single click emulates de left click adding a node. The problem remains: I cannot close any line or boundary.
