Is there any way to enable the Drag Lock feature using a Magic Trackpad 2? This is where you tap twice and hold the second time to drag an item, and then release the trackpad when you want to stop dragging. This is similar to double-clicking and then holding, but using taps instead of clicks. I really hope this can be done!
Got a tip for us?

The ability to drag items using a three-finger gesture is an option for trackpads that support Force Touch.

This is the iPad forum. Not the Mac forum.
If I am understanding your needs correctly: Tap and hold with pointer finger, drag with thumb or middle finger.
Settings > Accessibility > Pointer Control > Double-Tap to Drag > Without Drag Lock
Seems to be working well on my new ipad (bought like a couple of days back).
