mouse drag without modifier makes click not work

The issue:

• Qtile version: 0.21.1.dev75+g6620786f

in my config.py I am trying to make mouse drag a floating window to change its position without modifiers.

mouse = [
    Drag([],
         "Button1",
         lazy.window.set_position_floating(),
         start=lazy.window.get_position()),
    Drag([mod],
         "Button3",
         lazy.window.set_size_floating(),
         start=lazy.window.get_size()),
]

tho when I drag a floating window, it does move it properly. However, any clicking on a floating window will not work, ex: click tabs in chrome.

not sure if the detection of drag or click have some issue or if I can define what is a drag? say long press button1 more than 2 seconds and move (change x, y) as a drag? ex: change some logic in process_button_motion or process_button_click?

Required:

• I have searched past issues to see if this bug has already been reported.

It’s going to Drag because it’s checking what’s in your config. It looks for Click and Drag objects and sees if the button matches the pressed button.

There’s no magic to drag other than Click objects take priority over Drag ones.
