Description Brian Withnell CLA 2019-01-23 09:34:07 EST 
The preferences have a dialog for configuring keyboard actions, even those that are standard (like ctrl-v) but it appears there isn't a similar configuration for mouse buttons. It would be useful to be able to assign any of the 16 mouse buttons I have on my mouse to do whatever action I want. Mice don't just have 3 buttons any more ... eclipse ought to be able to assign actions to those that linux itself passes to the program.
