Default behavior for dragging in core about chise.js HOT 4 CLOSED

I found this section ( http://js.cytoscape.org/#notation/gestures ) in Cytoscape.js documentation. In thiis section the gestures in this issue are mentioned too. Also, I could not find any option to change the behaviour of them. Therefore, I think that this gestures may be fixed and it may not be possible to change their default behaviours without changing Cytoscape.js core code.

@maxkfranz Anyway we somehow can change this default behavior? We want the old behavior.

from chise.js.

The old behaviour was based on timing, and that's no longer supported at all. It did not support pressing a key to enable box selection mode. By and large, users did not discover or understand the timing feature.

Panning is default, because that's a standard gesture in lots of apps. It's what users tend to expect.

The only way box selection becomes the default is if panning is disabled. So, you can use a mode with a toggle -- maybe by a button. Just disable panning when in your select mode. You can make select mode default if you like.

Let's close this since it looks like it is not straightforward to change default Cytoscape.js behavior.
