It’s not really ‘multitouch’. It’s basically the same thing as mapping our mouse driver to a key command. We’ve had similar capabilities for quite some time.

Well, there’s isn’t a tool for it, but it’d be easy to make.

We have mouse drivers already available that can do things like dispatch a left/right click or scroll event when there’s 3 fingers, etc. So someone would just need to make something that’s configurable where you can set what you want to control. For example, instead of having 3 fingers scroll, you could set it to fire a alt + 3 key command or something. Does that make sense? It’s basically like having a configurable mouse/keyboard driver.

well yes I knew that, but what’s cool in this one is that you can map some action like 2 fingers rotation or draging, so those are touch based gestures, so more advanced than scrolling or click…

3 finger scroll is a touch based gesture. Also right and left click using 2 fingers is also a touch based gesture and that’s why I used those as examples. :D It’s really the same thing, but mapped differently. It’s really not anything more advanced than mapping a simple touch gesture to a key or mouse command which is what some (not all) of the mouse drivers do.

but can we map action to gestures without a particular software like this one ? and this one is very nice too because you can configure the mapping for each .exe…

Is there any program that lets you map more than 2 finger touch and gestures to mouse or keyboard events?
Or has anyone an idea how to write a software for that ?

also tried it with some games but only one works perfect.
Disciples 3 for example doesn’t work well when zooming or rotating. also it doesn’t recognize touch as click in game, only in the menu. In Game you have to drag your finger in a direction to click, thats very strange.

And as long as the software is only capable of dual touch it would be nice to map more than 2 fingers if you have a real multitouch tablewink
