Curious about how drag and drop works

Click to select a document, hold the button down, drag it to where you want it, and release the button.

 

Well you click an object and (without letting go of your click) you drag the object to your intended destination and then release your click.

I can't tell if you're joking or not, but I guess I'll humor you if you are.

Oh!

Man I forget the name of the setting but it's there, trust me. Just try them all, you'll find it.

 

On my '08 MacBook (and '11 MacBook Pro) it delays the release of the mouse button when tap-to-click is enabled.

I can just double tap+hold to click and hold onto something;
drag it over;
lift up my finger and reposition it quickly and it won't release the mouse button;
keep dragging from the new point as if nothing happened.

But I believe this works only when not physically clicking on the trackpad. Just when tap-to-click is on.

 

I think you over think the problem.
I don't know if you people really do it as you say. I mostly just use it as if there was a button.
You get to your file with the index finger. Press with the thumb down on the bottom of the pad where there is the least resistance. Than move around with the index finger while just keeping the thumb down.
I think actually moving the finger that is pressing down is just unnecessary friction. You also don't have to press down everywhere on the pad when at the top half it really takes quite some effort.

You can use it like every other touch pad with a button at the bottom and two fingers on it at the same time. It is smart enough to get what you want that even works with the Windows drivers which are otherwise rather stupid.
