unity - Double Triple-Click brings up Switcher -- how do I change this to revert Triple-Click to be middle click again? - Ask Ubuntu


behavior in 16.04: triple-click middle click (this assumption, can't middle clicking, behavior consistent middle clicking) , opens link in new background tab in firefox. switcher was/is tiny , looks shit, works fine.

behavior after upgrade 16.10: double triple-click (but interestingly not single triple-click, nor double double-click, nor double single-click) brings nice looking switcher love use alt+tab. looks great. it's not tiny , doesn't shit. wonderful if alt-tabbing used switcher, because it's large enough visible, background color in keeping ubuntu's theme , matches dock.

i triple-click go being middle click. can't find anywhere set this, , it's sad because can't open links in new background tab in firefox without old functionality.

11/7: within past couple days, i've noticed pages huge or small text. ctrl + 0 puts zoom original. however, today realized double-clicking (left click) cycling font size between bigger, smaller, , original zoom. causes this? can turn off? mention because may related these strange changes in triple-click behavior in firefox.

12/9: within past 2 days, can triple-click in firefox again. however, have very careful right-most finger. has in small area in top right corner of trackpad, or nothing happens.

1/12: reinstalled 16.10 because old account boot me out after login. no tiny switcher, still getting normal switcher on double triple-click, , still can't triple-click open links in new tab in firefox. can middle click on mouse, suggest reason, triple-click on trackpad not emulating middle click. found solution: https://www.reddit.com/r/ubuntu/comments/5807p9/tip_for_ubuntu_1610_use_dconfeditor_to_allow_you/

does know where/why double triple-click opening switcher??

found solution switcher problems.

the "tiny switcher" compizconfig settings manager's window management > application switcher. disable keys activate it. sucks.

go ubuntu unity plugin > switcher tab make sure keys enabled there. that's "very nice looking switcher" people think of ubuntu's default switcher.

still have absolutely no idea why double triple-clicking pulls switcher.

still don't know how revert triple click middle click / open link in new background tab.
