Subject: gnome-games: please add click-to-move mode to gnotravex (and others?)
Date: Tue, 02 Aug 2005 19:28:18 -0400
Package: gnome-games
Version: 1:2.8.3-2
Severity: wishlist

Please add a preference item for "click-to-move mode", like in the
recent upgrade to aisleriot.  In this mode, the first click starts
moving a piece/tile/card, and the second click "drops" it whereever
the cursor has moved -- you don't have to hold the mouse button down
while moving.  On laptops with touchpads and trackpoints, I find it
easier than click-dragging.  If there are other tile-moving games that
don't have it, they might also benefit.

 This was apparently fixed a while ago with this change:
