Forever fighting UI on a laptop, because the show info pane shows up when I don't quite click the touchpad on my Macbook Pro correctly. Default action could be an option in the ESC options pane perhaps?

EVE is best played on a PC, but since you want to be a special cookie, use boot camp.

Nah the expected function of all links is to show their info. If you change that it'll **** with people. And something like this sounds like a very sparsely used option anyway.

Perhaps you could invest in a mouse?

Preferably with a right and a left mouse button.

I kind of like my mouse. Has 5 buttons, with a scroller as well. Plus rubber mat on the thumb area is a plus as well.

Which is why I requested it could be a configurable option.

We've got some UI adjustments upcoming which may make your life easier in this regard.

Sorry - not sure of expected release date. That was kind of what I was hoping for. Are we likely to be talking days, weeks, months?

I don't think we've announced the actual date yet, but it'll be reasonably soon Smile

You already killed one server in public (that which didn't want to stream) you expect more to die soon? ShockedShocked

…which has only had right-clicks since, oh, the 1980s. Their touchpads in particular have far better rclicks than most laptops. Blink

OP: What you need is a microfiber cloth, not an ESC option. P

ehh... Apple mouses have more then 1 button these days people. Left click, right click, mid scroll and mid click.
Not that they are anywhere near great though.

And I never understood why people, PC or Mac cling to using a clumsy track pad, great for scrolling through photo's but are a nightmare to game with.
