I don't know why this is considered resolved, this is not resolved. Using snapshot 13w17a there is no right click button mapping. Typically Button 2 is mapped to a control + click but control + click just activates a standard left click. It makes the snapshot impossible to play on a mac laptop.
Does anyone know--is there a way to downgrade lwjgl or is that crazy? If so wouldn't that fix things for us? As far as I'm concerned, this is a game breaking issue, even if Mojang aren't responsible directly.
Hey Grum, there's no need to be condescending. The fact is, most of us are talking about our laptop trackpad, not a mouse. On a laptop it is much quicker to modify a single button with control than it is to switch your thumb between a left and right click like on a PC laptop.
Most of us kept starting new threads knowing full well there were others because each one we started was subsequently locked without a satisfactory answer.
Since you've got a stick up your butt about "no right click" let me bring you up to date on Apple hardware. MacBooks have no button at all. It's one big trackpad, and you can click down part of it. Rest another finger on the trackpad when you click, and you've got yourself a "right click" menu. For every function except games, this is FASTER than a windows laptop with two separate buttons, because the thumb doesn't have to move at all. It just so happens that Minecraft interprets this natural modified click by scrolling through the hotbar. An imac or mac pro, likewise, comes with a mouse capable of a traditional left and right "click", they just aren't buttons. But none of us are using a desktop--that's the point.
As for "hacks" etc, the game works perfectly in its present state. There is no weird behaviour. I can drop a single item from the stack using the K key which I have assigned that to.
Wait so you're seriously not going to fix this for the new release? Well, maybe the optifine guys will work something out. The modding community has always worked much harder and been far more innovative than the MC dev team anyway (only Notch excluded).
There is no way to get control+click back. There might be eventually, but not now. Also please click "vote" at the top because that's the only way Mojang will consider this important.
We have told @Ezekiel this before but he does not listen. Two-finger-click for right click is incredibly cumbersome and slow in Minecraft. It also ends up spinning you through your hotbar half the time. Dumb.

I say we start a fund to hire the OptiFine guy to build a fix.

Agreed about sloppy, in general. They pushed through another cycle to give us...the carpet update? Wow...
Everybody who wants attention on this issue: VOTE AT THE TOP. That is how to get Mojang's attention.
