      Description

      Follow-on from JAL-2077 - it looks like the way Jalview detects middle-button drags doesn't work any more on OSX. On a real three-button mouse, you should be able to click with the middle button on the alignment area and drag to change the font size and aspect ratio. CMD+Left-click apparently does the same thing (see last comment on JAL-2077 and Oracle mouse event tester for proof), but Jalview doesn't pick it up.
