Hello,

This feature was removed in the previous build of xyplorer. I like to request this feature back, i like this because i use a ordinary logitech mouse and i can use the middle click mouse button without any additional software. and like to add another shortcut based on the tree panel,

1. middle click = open new tab in foreground (open in new tab)
2. ctrl + middle click = open new tab in background (open in new background tab)

and an option to enable and disable this two shortcuts to prevent any problem with mouse software.

thanks xy!

It was removed because some mice behaved badly. I understand from Don that its a tedious process to provide support to each and every mice.

i saw the thread about the mice problem, i think it wasn't about the mouse behaving badly rather the installed mouse software thats causing the problem, im using an ordinary logitech mouse without the need for any software and im not having any problem using the middle button. hopefully it will be integrated again in xy, with an option of course for those who uses mouse software. :D
