Is their left button on the right side or on the left side of the mouse? What's with five button mice with three regular buttons and one additional on each side? Are these lefter button and righter button? (What's with Wii remote? Is A left or B right or front or back? So what's with touchpads, Dance Dance revolution pads and bongos?) I think left, right, middle ain't better than red, yellow, blue! Actually it's worse. Alex

Re: [Pharo-project] What about a little rename in MouseEvent?

by Ricardo Moran

I totally agree with the color buttons being really confusing. What's funny is that it's not even consistent. For instance, preference "swapMouseButtons" comment is "if true, swaps mouse buttons 2 and 3". What's that suppose to mean? Weren't mouse buttons colored?? :) However, I have a question: once you change the names to left, right, middle, what will happen if swapMouseButtons is true? Will "middleClick" still mean "middleClick"?

Even Apple's multi-touch "magic-mouse" talks about left and right-clicks (which is ironic as they have long resisted to even add a second button) ... but also mouse events for the "360Â° scroll", "Screen zoom" and "two-finger swipe". -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/What-about-a-little-rename-in-MouseEvent-tp3233363p32… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
