Hello everyone,
To mark a rectangular block of text, you can use right-click + drag. I would prefer to have this as Ctrl + left-click (+ drag), or something like that.
The reason is that I am using a tablet with stylus instead of a mouse. Under Linux, pressing the "right-click" button often causes the stylus to move a pixel to the left or right. This is interpreted as a "drag" and starts a block mark. The result is that it is very hard to get the right-click popup menu to appear.
If I disable the block mark using the right-click + drag, I get the right-click popup menu back. But... I like marking blocks with the mouse.
Of course, if there is a way to set the "jitter threshold" of the mouse cursor movement before switching to "drag mode", this would solve the problem too.
Thanks in advance.
(By the way, I have no such problem in Windows, only in Linux. I believe that the Wacom driver for Microsoft Windows may have its own "jitter threshold" algorithm).
