Hello,

i would like to select/deselect entries in the download queue with the middle mouse button. The selected entries should remain selected even if other entries are selected.

It's not going to happen. Middle button activates scrolling when there are items out of view.

Regarding selection logic, have you tried selecting while holding CTRL?

Hello,

yes i always use CTRL (because I have no other choice), but would liked to have an alternative so i don't always have to use the keyboard. I never use middle button for scrolling when there are items out of view. I'm used to selecting in Directory Opus with the middle mouse button so i don't always have to use the keyboard.

I also only have a 3-button mouse. Maybe i'll buy a new one with more than 3 buttons, but i wanted to avoid it.

Can't middle button scrolling be switched off to enable the middle mouse button? Adding this new setting would be great for usability.
