Why Apple now wanted to push the trackpad for desktop, was not clear to me.
On the laptop trackpad for me has always been to connect only an annoying fallback when there is no time or place is a mouse - because drag and drop is simply inconvenient.
And so it is here!
For everything you need at least one finger more!
Moving objects need is 3 fingers as opposed to a forced-held mouse button in the mouse.
Although (keep pressed =) depressing the entire trackpad would be possible - the pressure point for this is however so high that you can not drive around sensibly with your finger.
Who many objects on screen rumschiebt (video editing, etc.) will hate the trackpad!
Why is the Magic Mouse actually think?
Because they (X / Y mouse position X / Y + finger position) can simultaneously control 4 axes,
the trackpad but only 2 (finger position X / Y).
Since I control the pointer with the mouse position, sufficient for the Magic Mouse:
-rumfahren hold down the mouse button to move
-1 Finger wipe to scroll
-2 Finger Wipe the leaves
When Magic Trackpad is always at least one finger more:
-1 Finger controls the cursor
-2 Finger scrolling
Move -3 finger
For the simple click you can indeed specify that an tapping the trackpad is sufficient - for drag and drop, however, is not enough:
Here I must stay on the pad - and then it is not recognized as a click, because you do the same thing if you just want to move only the cursor.
So either create a right click lock - this is the pressure point of the trackpad but too sluggish - permanently depress and then rumrutschen is ergonomic madness.
So remains only to move three fingers at the same time to lay on the pad and then rumzuschieben.
The range of motion is of course no longer particularly - and if you have to re-ansetzten because you are already on the edge of the pad, would transpose the mouse with the mouse have been possible and easier. If you want to move a file, and ends up on the edge - is a just the reverse so that the file does not end up sonswo.
A pointing device that provides the basic for years selbstverstänliche techniques such as moving Objektem on the suddenly become the puzzle screen is for me personally a retrogression and no progress.
Therefore, I have the Magic Trackpad returned and kept the Magic Mouse.
The ergonomic mouse is certainly not - but I have survived already 14 hour work assignments without pain.
