[PD] Cannot get [hid] to work properly with my mouse

[James Dunn]

Yes I see what you mean. If you are on linux you could try [linuxevent] 
from here:

http://at.or.at/hans/pd/hid.html

I use this on Arch due to this bug:

http://sourceforge.net/p/pure-data/bugs/889/

[linuxevent] has finger detection so you can use this to gate the data 
stream.
