Multi-Touch Gestures: Three Finger Drag for Touchpad #1015

Open paulbille opened 3 years ago

paulbille commented 3 years ago

Problem

To my knowledge and prior search, Elementary OS currently does not support three finger drag.

Proposal

Similiar to the current option to use tap as click, I propose that there is an option within the upcoming Multi-Touch Gestures that enables three finger dragging for windows, files or text selection.

Prior Art

MacOS previously supported three finger drag as a option within Multi-Touch Gestures and now supports it as an option under Accessability.

It makes moving windows, dragging and dropping files, or selecting text a much less straining and more controlled experience.

Hello, @danrabbit @cassidyjames. As a perk of the sponsorship, I would love if you could investigate on this 🙏️
