track pad & Big Sur?

I have an iMac along with the Track Pad. Love it...but when I updated to the latest OS, Big Sur - the track pad quit doing the click & drag. I can't find a setting in the track pad to fix it! Any suggestions?

iMac 21.5″ 4K, macOS 11.2

Track pad has 2 levels of click, confusing I have a Macbook Air 2021, my wife has a Macbook air 2019, and its the same on both. I found this in Textedit, but it also occurs in Safari. If the cursor is on a word, and I click down and hold, I get the start of a selection and I can drag to select. However, if I don't drag, but instead click down even harder without raising the first click, a window opens with the Dictionary/Thesaurus. My problem is that I am having difficulty stopping at the first level of press, so have difficulty starting a selection drag. I spoke to Apple Support and they didn't know about 2 levels of click. I was given a Genius bar appointment to investigate!

Macbook pro trackpad not working to select portions of a clip in iMovie I'm using my macbook pro with Big Sur 11.1 installed and using iMovie 10.2.2. I was able to select a portion of a clip in the browser using the r+click+drag on my track pad and it was very glitchy and finicky but I could get it to work up until yesterday. When I press and hold 'r' the small yellow box appears and only sometimes the larger yellow box appears with the handles. but when I try to click and drag the handles, nothing happens. So I can't select any portion of the clip! Any suggestions?
