Inconvenient panning

@arkhenstone Tested in firefox, the panning is weird, it moves without button down event.
I will have a look at it along with the shitf + click, thanks for reporting

Hi @mbuczko ,
Zooming and Panning together is carried out in a number of different ways. I got the inspiration for the current behavior in ApexCharts from plot.ly, but I think your suggestion to allow panning while holding an additional key is not bad.

Another option to avoid going back and forth the toolbar is to allow zoomin/zoomout by mousewheel/pinch gesture and allow panning by mousedown/drag. This way you never will have to reach for toolbar multiple times.

I will keep this ticket open, so I have it in my to-do list, thanks!

@junedchhipa Shift+click to pan like in plotly would be very nice to have too

@pribilinskiy I just checked out panning in plotly with the shift being held, and it is indeed a very good UX experience.
I will definitely think more about this. Thanks

Either this, or just make a double arrow cross like when you drag a windows on any OS. Any desktop OS have this symbol for moving windows around. The way it is now is complicated because it moves on its own just by hovering the chart. Look at amCharts lines chart demos for an implementation of this feature.

Shift+mousedown = panning enabled.
Firefox bug while panning fixed.
