Not sure what the solution is.
I see to options:

  • make this keybinding work with emulate 3 button mouse enabled
  • use another keybinding and fix the status bar

I'm not sure if it can be made to work? Alt is used to simulate the MMB, so it can't be used here afaik.

We can make ctrl double-click do edge ring select if emulate MMB is on, just like we did for loop select?

@brecht Sure, that sounds fine I think.

Agree with Brecht. But in that case You guys should change image helpers in bottom bar(first image is post). For avoid misunderstanding

Emulate 3 Button Mouse does not update the status bar at all. Not sure if this is doable, because it's not on the keymap level - would be nice though.

William, if to speak honestly I'm a big fan of "Emulate 3 Button Mouse" because default navigation hotkeys with always taping on midl button is very uncomfortable(maybe review this hot keys). And it would be great when you checked "Emulate 3 Botton mouse" all hotkeys stays the same. Like edge loop, edge ring selection etc.
