Anyone know if I could use Better Touch Tool to enable the 3 finger drag track pad gesture to work by using the command key as a modifier? I want to enable 3 finger drag but I don't want it to change my other 3 finger gestures to 4 finger ones (which is why I thought I could just use command+3finger move to drag windows). Sorry for the noob question, just got BTT. Very excited to see what all I can configure this baby to do :D
 
I don't believe there is any way to setup a 3-finger drag gesture using BTT. You could enable the 3-finger drag option in the Trackpad preferences and disable the ones it switches to 4-finger gestures. Then go back into BTT and setup the disabled gestures again manually to be 3-finger gestures instead of 4-finger gestures. Not 100% sure this will work without making the 3-finger drag gesture buggy or nonfunctional, but it's worth a try.
