Title: Middle click optional action
Post by: scud on January 06, 2022, 15:57:44

I think that middle click on track from playlist should be optional in setting, for the user to be able to choose arbitrary action like: "file folder", "file info", "copy to clipboard", etc.
Currently that middle click action is hard-coded set next playing track.
That "set next playing track" can be default action for users who are already accustomed to such behavior of middle click.

No, I think it should not. The action is "add to playback queue". This behavior was introduced in winamp and we still keep it for UX compatibility.

Adding possibility to customize middle click will not break compatibility, because default action for queue will stay as it is.
Adding possibility to customize something is good thing, not bad  ;) Because AIMP is better than winamp, so why we should follow blindly something which is obsolete...

Hallo,
I would like to give some of my opinions to help developers...

I have never used mouse wheel in Winamp for anything else but to navigate inside the PLAYLIST and to change VOLUME UP/DOWN in the main window.
It is a bit frustrating when wheel is on the track line and I want to change the Volume, but, accidentally,  I manage to go FORWARD/BACKWARD track. It should be changed the way to terminate that option or to SEEK track only with the WHEEL pressed.
