A script I find useful is Power Launcher, which requires a reasonable memory to utilise effectively, but is highly effective for simply and selectively opening files with alternative applications. Sadly the right mouse button click alterations in XY have increased the clickrate on a right click, but power launcher remains effective.
A current restriction with Power Launcher is that it has not so far incorporated the middle key click. Using the middle mouse button click is useful and I have attempted to alter the script to incorporate that but do not myself have sufficient knowledge to identify the middle mouse key click signal to power launcher, so have been unsuccessful, having to instead make do with a multiline script selection there, one item of which is to open the powerlauncher definitions file. If the middle button click were captured by power launcher these multi-line options could more usefully be moved to the right mouse button click where the clickrate is now higher anyway. Is anybody able to help me in this task by pointing the way towards what the middle mouse button click capture would consist of for power launcher to capture it. My skills in scripting are beyond beginner but limited.
My apologies if I have missed anything obvious in utilising the middle mouse button with this script.

Re: Middle Mouse Button and PowerLauncher
Hi Ian,
Are you talking about this Power Launcher ?
It seems like it, but if so, out of curiosity, why didn’t you post in its thread ?
(You’re lucky I’m online and checking the forum these days.)
As for the script, I didn’t realize it was still used by other users, so I didn’t take the time to post the following versions (I’m at 3.20 here now…)
Anyway, I never implemented a middle-click option because personally I use it for "Full screen preview", but I guess it could be done. I’ll look into it.

Re: Middle Mouse Button and PowerLauncher
Yes that is it. Good and useful script.
My bad one. I had posted two items and just followed the same procedure with the second. Thanks for noticing and responding.
Many thanks for looking at that as I was struggling somewhat.
