That trackpad gesture support where it actually tracks with your finger movement looks really nice. Is this typical in Linux distros now, or is elementary going above and beyond the rest with that?
- mssdvd 5y agoGnome 40 can do the same.
- Flex247A 5y agoBut overall, it's much smoother in Pantheon than in Gnome 40.
- solarkraft 5y agoIt’s not typical at all. Only in the recently released version 40 Gnome has shipped what feels like a prototype of this. Before then only the obscure Wayfire had a similar gesture for desktop switching (actually good) and there were a few projects hacking it up with simulated keyboard shortcuts (obviously not the same at all).
- amilios 5y agoHonestly I think this is the most exciting thing, and I'm very glad to see support for it from the DE itself. Currently I think as someone else mentioned it's only GNOME that does it, otherwise you have to use hacky third party programs like touchegg which essentially just emulate certain keyboard shortcuts. So don't even think about finger movement tracking
