KDE could combine both methods to become even more powerful. Combine this with the three mouse buttons we have and the possibilities will be unlimited. Long--left-short-right-short-right. KDE, the rhythmic desktop - musicians will love it. I think it should be implemented in KDE before Apple thinks of it. Honestly, triple clicks might make sense where the meaning of a triple click is a logical extension of a double click. Think of texts: double click selects a word, triple clicks selects a line. That's more or less intuitive. But what you suggest is far from obvious in my eyes. Maybe you want your video player to remember and restore its last position instead? Try "Advanced" -> "Special window settings" in the window menu of your player. Fred >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe <<
