Option to pan with right mouse button on windows

[TextusGames]

It will be good if we can pan with right mouse button  and still access  context menu. It can be implemented if  this way: if we click with RMB and not drag and than release mouse button there will be context menu and if we click and drag there will be panning behaviour. 

Unreal engine do this way. Here i am using just RMB for panning and for context menu.

It howewer should be an optional behaviour becouse i think there is some people who prefer fast using of context menu ( Press and hold  than choose menu command and than release in oppose to right click then choose menu comand than left click)

But i would prefer to rather have right mouse pan(if click and drag) and context menu on mouse release(if where was no dragging).

Depending on your mouse model/settings you may use the scroll-wheel button to pan as well. Have you tried it?

Yes i do pan with scroll-wheel mouse button in affinity, but i personally to find it easy to pan with right mouse button(i think panning  is very freakuent operation in my workflow). Plus i am using program there i pan with right button, and then i switch to affinity i have to pan with  scroll-wheel button, this is a little inconsistant workflow.

I hope in the future there will be option to pan with right button.

Use X-Mouse to remap your right mouse button to behave like the middle mouse button. Tested in Photo, and works like a charm. I use the portable version.

I remapped the side buttons on my mouse to behave like the middle mouse buttons. X-Mouse allows you to remap the mouse buttons for each individual app you use, if required.
