[Mod - Happy Thoughts]uming that nowadays most of the controllers use a mouse with a scroll wheel (including an additional click button), I suggest to offer the possibility to use this 3rd mouse button not only for the zoom, but the integrated click as well for additional functions of the tag items. This means basically that a the tag definitions would feature an additional column for the definition of the middle button function.

Especially for items which feature two different dialogs (f.e. speed IAS and mach), a third option offering to clear the set value would be pretty smart. Of course this would need as well some additional tag functions (mainly a function to clear each temporary value that can be set), but I think they are easy to create.

Finally this would enable f.e. for the speed to either open the list for IAS speeds with the left button, open the list for mach speeds with the right button or clear the [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned value with the middle button.
