Suggestion: Pan with middle mouse

[sbrl]

I keep trying to do this, and it doesn't work! Is there a setting? Then I don't have to stop building something just to pan across the game field.

This is in a browser, you'll need to somehow override scrolling...

....but middle mouse doesn't do anything at all for me at the moment anyway in the standalone version or in Firefox, @Aurumaker72?

Edit: Wouldn't

event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
return false;

do the trick in a addEventListener event handler?

Im guessing it is doing something behind the scenes. Just a question: MMB panning would be kind of painful on the fingers, it isn't worth it. You can always just use the pippete tool to reselect the item.

My finger is already on the mouse wheel to zoom out/in, so it makes sense to be able to keep it there rather than switching between the left mouse button and the middle mouse button all the time.

Furthermore, I already use the pipette tool. The panning here I'm talking about is zooming out and then panning over t another factory I've built for example. I'm unsure as to what you're getting at there.

Can you close this?

@Aurumaker72 I'm not sure I understand. Both the issue linked to and the PR attached to it are closed without being merged.
