lua callback for mouse Drag?

[klauweg]

Is it possible to have a lua callback (onAction()) for Mouse Drag (release) to get the selection?

It is possible, not via a callback (onAction) but via a keybinding. With PR #2606 (merged 3 days ago) you can bind MouseLeftDrag, MouseLeftRelease, MouseRightRelease, MouseMiddleDrag etc to any action (just like you can bind a key event to any action), in particular you can bind it to a lua function.

Also with PR #2605 (also merged 3 days ago), if you bind a mouse event to a lua function, this lua function receives *tcell.EventMouse with information about the mouse event (x,y coordinates and so on).

It works like a charm.
Thank you!

Actually I've realized it does work with onAction callbacks as well. You can try:

function onMouseDrag(bp)
    micro.InfoBar():Message("dragged")
end

function onMouseRelease(bp)
    micro.InfoBar():Message("released")
end
