Gestures

The available gestures depend on the current "Pointer Mode". There are two modes available:

Touchscreen Mode

This mode provides a standard touchscreen experience. The mouse pointer will jump to any point the user taps on the screen. Click and drag can be accomplished by briefly holding down then dragging the finger. Scrolling is performed with standard 1 finger swiping.

GestureDescription
1 finger swipe Scrolls the view.
1 finger tap Left Click - Moves the pointer position to the tap location then sends left mouse button down and up.
1 finger tap then
hold and drag
Left Click and Drag - Moves the pointer position to the tap location and drags.
1 finger long press Right Click - Moves the pointer position to the tap location then sends right mouse button down and up.
Pinch Zooms in and out.

Trackpad Mode

The touch screen acts like a giant trackpad. Tapping the screen will result in a left mouse click at the current pointer location (NOT where the user tapped on the screen). Sliding a finger across the screen will move the mouse pointer the same distance from where it started (NOT to where the finger is).

GestureDescription

1 finger tap Left Click - Sends left mouse button down then up where the pointer is currently located (NOT the tap location).
