elementary OS to gain multi-touch gestures |
 |
The elementary OS team has announced that version 6 of their operating system will include support for multi-touch gestures. "One of the most hotly requested features for years has been to have multi-touch gestures in elementary OS, and with 6.0 I'm excited to say that we will deliver. Like the dark style preference, delivering a great multi-touch experience is a little more complicated than it seems on the surface. There have been some 3rd party tools to detect touchpad gestures and then trigger actions after-the-fact, but it wasn't until recently that we've had the technical ability to provide smooth, responsive animations that track 1:1 with your finger movement across a touchpad or touch screen." The new gestures will allow users to use multiple-finger gestures to navigate the desktop and perform such actions as switching workspaces and maximize windows. Details and examples of how these gestures will work are covered in the project's blog post.
