Isn't pushing 2 buttons at the same time on a 2-button mouse the same as pushing the third button on a 3 button mouse?
- unwind 3y agoYes but that is a very limited third button. You cannot do chording (e.g. left+middle buttons together) using that approach. Some specialized applications use chording. Edit: spelling because phone.
- activiation 3y agoJust curious, which popular app uses that?
- arp242 3y agoYeah but half the time I get it wrong and accidentally left or right click when I intended to middle click.
