FYI, gestures will be removed

Post by admin »

The non-documented "gesture" feature, experimentally introduced 10 years ago in v10.40.0106 - 2011-10-18 20:27 was never really developed any further and now looks like an evolutionary dead end. I will get off this horse in the next beta.

Actually i even remember that implementing, wow i'm old. :lol:
Maybe it didn't develop in anything because most of users didn't even know it's there and ideas/requests were not coming...

Or maybe the time wasn't right. Hand gestures may be a key input method in the future.
