Sorry Ivan that I did not come back to you earlier :o Somehow I seem to have missed the forum notification... While I have not yet implemented this approach, I surely will do so because the current hotkeys that I am using (like PrintScreen and Pause) keep having side effects at times. Thank you David
The assumption is that "it takes me not only two seconds (as usual), but instead like half a minute to bring it back to right-hand mode" means that there is some sort of touch and hold function that should take 2 seconds that isn't working. In that scenario, it sounds like the problem cou...
As an update on this, I was only going to report that in the meantime, I see the problem as follows. It can happen that I work for like a week all day long with the iGesture pad, and it doesn't confuse left and right hand mode one single time. Then, on another day, it would erroneously switch to lef...
Hi Ivan and thanks for the reply. If I get you right, I think that this is a great idea which should make the team of Fingerworks hardware and Autohotkey infinitely extendable... Kind of like, I make the I gesture Pad send a key sequence like "x3F&8" on a certain gesture, and my Autoho...
Just for the record, since parts of this thread seemingly have been deleted for some reason. I just ran into the same problem again, and luckily was able to find the culprit according to the title of this thread. The problem was, I was going to assign an action to the Thump+Pinky(R Spread) gestures ...
Hi forum, I already use certain keyboard keys to transfer information from the IGesture Pad to Windows applications, especially to Autohotkey, in order to trigger certain Windows actions by certain gestures. For example, I use the IGesture Pad to send "Pause" or "PrintScreen" key...
Thanks -- after trying several flavors of VirtualBox and VMLite (which all did not work for some reason; I am under the impression that they are outdated and/or more or less abandoned?), I finally got everything to work with VMWare Player. There, it is actually possible to connect like anything that...
Thanks Torben! The iGesture Pad unfortunately does not even show up in the XP device manager: http://i.imgur.com/QloV8ro.png The "Virtual PC Integration Device" is something else since it does not disappear when the Fingerworks hardware is unplugged. Again -- the iGesture Pad does work in ...
Also here, the link to an old Java version that I just installed in a "XP mode" Windows virtual machine on Win7 64bit, in order to be able to run the Fingerworks Utilities: http://www.oldapps.com/java.php?old_java=10 However, there's still the problem that the Fingerworks hardware is not r...
Thanks for your inputs Dustin, Or, when you're tense and not specifically trying to fix the issue, your thumb curls and then number 2 could cause the problem. For two reasons, I don't think #2 can be the cause for the problem. First the hand swap happens thousands of times after scrolling (with four...
:) I swear that the feature from hell just now struck me after the following gesture sequence: 1.) Selecting some text in Word with the single finger point/drag gesture (that double-clicks, holds and enables drag-selecting afterwards), 2.) Copying the selected text with the two finger copy gesture (...
This is magic, or something. Accidentally, I felt rather energetic the last 2 hours (doesn't happen SO often here), and the feature from hell has not struck me one single time.
so sorry if the questions about your finger length seem personal :D but here is another: Is your pinky so short that the pad could think it is a thumb in a different gesture Actually not quite * , but if it were, and if the pad would think it is a thumb, it would not scroll! So that can't be the pr...
Hey Dustin and thank you for the reply, Trying five finger scrolling sounds especially reasonable if you want five finger scrolling anyway, and it sounds like you do. Yes I think that it is very comfortable. However I still suspect that there was some weighty reason to not choose five fingers for sc...
Guys, I start to suspect that the four-finger up/down scrolling gesture is the main culprit here, because most often, the 'feature from hell' occurs just after scrolling (about one time per minute, day in year out). Therefore, I thought I'd use five fingers for scrolling instead -- this would also b...
Thank you very much Torben for your compassion. Although I think that I have already tried some of my other iGesture Pads, I will try again and report back if anything should improve. After all, our Fingerworks touchpads and keyboards are still unparalleled, indispensable, and in a class of its own ...
Can you guys believe that this feature from hell has pestered me like a 100,000 times now -- and I still didn't manage one single &%*$§ing time to reproduce it intentionally?
OK thank you very much guys for your suggestions. I have a full metal desktop microphone which I touch every time after sitting down and before doing anything else. This probably has saved me a couple of my iGesture Pads alone. Regarding wireless stuff, I don't have any I am aware of at or near my d...
Hi forum, I already feared my beloved iGesture Pad was starting to die since it had developed spurious keystrokes quite heavily. Sometimes even the Backspace key gesture would get stuck and delete everyting in it's path until I managed to unplug the Pad. Cleaning the Pad didn't really help also. Now...
Have you guys seen the AeroTouch App for the Leap Motion device? http://666kb.com/i/cnmz84unxju9o2ll0.png https://airspace.leapmotion.com/apps/aerotouch/windows To me, this looks almost as infinitely configurable as the MultiTouch Utilities by Fingerworks. PS: Touch Typing with Haptix, could be inte...
