Just got iSSH and for the most part I love it. I am able to connect to
my OS X machines using VNC which is great but I can not seem to click
and drag. I've tried holding the left "mouse button" but I can't drag/
move anything. Is there a way to to this?

Also it seems when I'm SSH'd in to my machine and I go from portrait
to landscape the tool bar does some odd things, even disappearing all
together.

Dragging is a little touchy as the screen tries to scroll at the same
time. I intent to fix this in the following release by either
freezing the screen or having it work using a two-finger tap.

Regarding your second funky bug, this has already been addressed in
the version presently awaiting review.

Have you considered making a single tap a left click (similar to most
touch pads)? I also like the tap, then tap /drag in order to click and
drag. That might work well.

Failing that, locking the screen while holding the left or right mouse
buttons would work like a charm, I think.

My bad: I didn't realize a single tap did a left click (it didn't seem
to work that way at first).

At any rate, tap, tap/drag might introduce a delay in single clicking
by tapping that could be undesirable, now that I think of it.
