Ever since Lion I've been using Better Touch Tool in order to have the three finger tap gesture trigger a middle click. Now, in Mountain Lion, Apple has changed the in-line dictionary definition gesture from three finger double tap to three finger tap. I am finding that sometimes I get middle click and sometimes I get a dictionary definition. How can I disable Apple's dictionary definition gesture?
Edit: sometimes I am getting both a middle click and a dictionary definition.

Ivarr08 over 11 yearsYeah, I just kept three finger tap as lookup and made three finger click to be middle click. It takes some getting used to but its bearable.
