Resources for mapping mouse triggers

The following resource controls the mouse trigger mechanisms:

triggers.mapping (Class: Triggers.Mapping)
``Mapping mouse triggers for the Desktop'' discusses triggers (which are double-clicks or drags of the mouse buttons) and how to associate actions with specific triggers using the trigger_actions clause in rule files. These trigger actions can be modified or completely redefined.

Although xdt3 offers flexibility in mapping triggers, you are advised against modifying this mapping on a whim. The trigger mapping has been optimized to the particular mouse supplied with your system. The /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/XDesktop3 resource file includes alternate trigger mechanisms that are commented out. You may want to try using these definitions as an alternate. See ``Mapping mouse triggers for the Desktop'' for a detailed discussion on this issue.
