Hi all, I have had my TS since 2003 when my hands started bugging me. I am a mechanical engineer and I do lots of work with Pro-Engineer. The Touch Stream has been great. I hope we are able to see FingerWorks products continue on and improve. A huge THANK YOU to Torben for setting up the web site an...

Here is a simple gesture modification that I have been using recently.
I added copy to the cord lift event of text select. This way every time I select text and end the cord the text is copied. This has some interesting effects when used with paste gesture on the other hand.

Found this on it is an interesting site with a cartoon about the Dvorak layout that is discussed around here frequently. I switched to dvorak on my qwerty TS and have never looked back or at my keys either

Thought I should I should weigh in here because I have had a different experience. I went cold turkey dvorak on my qwerty TS. I am proficient typist but have never taken a class or trained other than use while learning qwerty. I used the same method learning dvorak on the TS it took me about 6 month...

Fingerworks got a fair amount of attention from the music scene for use as a mixing board and synth input device. So that yet another angle for this technology that apple has a stake in.

The images you have are to the best of my knowledge an early version of the full keyboard model called the stealth sometimes ST. This was later revised and replaced by the Touchstream LP (low profile). I am not sure the stealth was actually for sale. The hand print shown on the keyboard was part of ...

This may not suite you but you could always set another gesture to do the reverse zoom. There are actually two gestures for a wheel zoom by default 5finger contract/expand and 4finger drag you could reverse one of them. Using a separate gesture but with the more natural/standard motion will probably...

That sort of interference has been noticed before there were some posts on it in the old forum. I cant find the posts at the moment. Headphone cords can cause problems too. I don't think there were any solutions found other than keeping the phone away from the keyboard.

I was going through the gesture editor and I rediscovered the Numlock till Word function. It does not seem to work for me and I am wondering if any of you are using it.

Ejack83,
Two questions:

What are the rectangular sections on the top and bottom of the unit in the picture you posted?

Is there a usb cord attached or a plug in the keyboard?

Thank you,

I came up with a interesting technique today. Maybe someone else will find it useful. I use special characters in my writing some times mainly ± ° Ø and some others as well so when I ran across an article about holding Alt and typing a numeric code for various characters I decided to find a way to d...

ivanw, I have attempted to create library files in the past with the gesture editor and hopelessly screwed up my config file. Can you make a short tutorial for the process used to create and use the library files? It would make a good addition to the wiki. If it requires messing with the xml manuall...

You may want to check this post out.
Minox added a usb plug to the pad to make a replaceable cord.
There are images of the mod here

I have been able to get the Utilities installed on Win7 (x64). I did not have too much difficulty the installer needs to be run in compatibility mode and you need to in stall the first and then point the installer at the Java engine. The issue I am having is that the utilities are not recognizing th...

Is it possible that the driver is still there and functioning but it is not being recognized by the utilities? Xwinder still works and there is not any loss of function with the keyboard that I am aware of... I am not sure how this works but isn't the driver stored in the keyboard and installed when...

This is a fun project. I had thought of making my own case a while back but I I never did any thing else with it. Torben has many good points I am hard pressed to come up with other changes. I like having a wrist rest but I suppose if the case is thin enough it would not be needed. If the usb plug i...
