Could the Action Mouse Key be bound to force click with one finger of the trackpad of mac?

After using hyperbole, I think its function is very magical. The trackpad of a Mac does not have a middle button. Could the Action Mouse Key of hyperbole be bound to force click with one finger of the trackpad of mac?

Yes, I believe so.  Look for a command named action-key or hkey-either and bind that to your Trackpad button push, assuming you have no need for drags.-- BobOn Sep 30, 2023, at 4:00 AM, Prague2049 @.***> wrote: After using hyperbole, I think its function is very magical.

Thank you very much!This is very wonderful! (define-key hyperbole-mode-map (kbd "<mouse-3>") 'action-key) I achieved this with the settings above. I am very looking forward to when Hyperbole 9 will be released?

The very smart mouse drag function of Hyperbole left a very deep impression on me. I have a suggestion about mouse dragging and link building, see if it can be implemented? I want to link the headline in one org file to the headline in another org file. When I drag the headline (include asterisks)of the source org file to the headline in the target org file with the mouse, a link will be automatically established in the target org file and the org-id will be added to the headline of the source org file. The details as follows : The headline in the source org file is: *Item2 The headline in the target org file is: *Item1

After dragging, The source org file is:

  • Item2 :PROPERTIES: :ID: 8E7514E0-0E2B-46D3-AB4A-F88F2720662E :END:

The target org file is:

  • Item1 [[id:8E7514E0-0E2B-46D3-AB4A-F88F2720662E][Item2]]

Interesting idea. Let us think on it. In hyperbole parlance the source buffer is where the new link is placed, and the referent or target is where the item linked to lives. So any drag would be from the source of the link to be created to the referent. V9 can make similar links with just a key press when you have the just the two buffers on screen. We would just need to add this specific link format.
