Summary0006463: Cannot immediately use touchpad when rotating objects or when moving
DescriptionTouchpad works as expected when player is standing still and it is used to turn player in any direction.

1)
It is not possible to rotate objects using a touchpad without first holding down shift before pressing z. Only pressing z will not work.

* Using a mouse, objects can be rotated in all directions (expected)
* Using a pointing stick (aka trackpoint), objects can be rotated in all directions (expected)
* Using a gamepad, objects can be rotated in most directions (expected) except direction roll, as reported in 0006462
* Using a touchpad, objects cannot (immediately) be rotated in any direction (unexpected)

2)
It is not possible to rotate player using touchpad when moving in any direction (forward, backward, strife) without first holding down ctrl or shift before pressing any of wasd-keys. Using a mouse in combination with wasd works as expected.
Steps To ReproduceOn a computer with a touchpad:
* Hold an object in front of the player (e.g. by pick up a small box or a candle)
* Press and hold z on keyboard (to manipulate the object)
* Interact with the touchpad
* Object does not rotate in any direction (unexpected)
* Start over by releasing all keyboard keys and hold the object in front of the player
* Press and hold shift
* Press and hold z
* Release shift
* Interact with the touchpad
* Object rotates pitch and yaw (expected)
* Keep z pressed and also press shift
* Move finger on touchpad left and right
* Object rotates roll (expected)
Additional InformationWorkaround:
* For rotating object: press and hold shift before pressing z, then release shift (if needed) before interacting with the touchpad.
* For moving when walking: press and hold shift or ctrl before pressing any of wasd, then (optionally) release shift/control before interacting with the touchpad.
