    Anyway to override mouse behavior on maps?

    I would REALLY REALLY REALLY like to disable left mouse click drag when in the middle of the map.

    I am expecting it to pan the map, but instead, it picks up the whole map and moves it on the desktop.

    Yes, I know I can pan the map by pressing middle button, but 30 years of habit are hard to break, and I am constantly moving my maps off the top or side of the screen.

    Please, oh please, tell me that is hidden somewhere in Lua code (so I can change it) ;-)

    And if not, it would be really nice if there was an option to swap those two behaviors.

    I would REALLY like a keybinding option for all of these sorta things. Let people set it to whatever they are used to...

    I totally get the issue you are having. I do it often as well.

    If nothing else I'd like to have frames/windows not be movable unless you are click/dragging the top or the bottom. That is sort normal "Windows" behavior at least (I dont think windows lets you move from the bottom).

    So I am guessing by your answer, that No... it isn't possible at the moment?

    I don't want this as the only behaviour possible. On my second player screen I rely heavily on moving the whole window (maps,story, etc.) around the screen by clicking anywhere in the main map area.

    @Nose66 - I'm not aware of a FG API to do what you want.
