Tip-tap gesture support
Hi, I'm moving from MacOS and BetterTouchTool, and I'm missing one type of gestures - the tip taps.
There, I could do a gesture like this: first I hold down finger one and then I tap finger two on the left or right. I can do this many times and alternate between left and right tip taps (I have to keep the first finger down during that duration)
In my case, I used this gesture as a nice way to switch application tabs (in windows this would be a ctrl+pgup/pgdown shortcut).
Is there any way to set this up? If not, I'd like to request this feature.
You can sort of emulate tip taps by fiddling with the finger id trigger in the advanced section of the gestures. Ex: id_1 < id_2 means that the leftmost finger needs to touch before the next right finger does. Unfortunately both need to end with touching the screen at the same time
Tip tap feature would be awesome.
@lukewma I can't find the advanced section of the gestures, to try out your workaround. Can you point me at the right direction?
@lyscop, sorry but I have no idea on how to set this up, as you recommend.
The tip tap gesture should work as follows:
Tip-tap left:
O O start touching or hold
. . .
O O O add third finger
Tip-tap right:
O O start touching or hold
. . .
O O O add third finger

Sorry, l mislead it, it seems the current vision can not achieve tip-tap function.
What I said are double click two or three fingers.
Hello, I tried to use this, but was not able to. I imported properly, got the shortcuts in the "(Global actions)" section, but simply cannot tap to generate the action.

hmm... I am not sure why it does not work in your case. works well for me.
Do you use trackpad? Did you try to enable "precision trackpad"? maybe driver issue?
I have recorded the said gesture (two finger fix variant) using BetterTouchTool (MacOS). I'm trying to use the same gesture using GestureSign.
@motfis: Driver error? It is possible. Macbook 2015's touchpad is not registered as a precision touchpad. To do that, I use an unofficial driver: Windows Precision Touchpad Implementation for Apple MacBook family/Magic Trackpad 2. How can I check if this is the case? Perhaps some kind of event recording in GestureSign?
I tried on touchpad. Indeed, it does not work on touchpad. It seems that gesture sign always registers touch as "Finger 1". Unfortunately I don't know how to trace the touch event. I think only the author can answer it (or someone with more knowledge on this code).

It seems just normal test on screen, but the touchpad can realize how many finger on it, and can not find out what the finger is, so tip tap do not work well on touchpad by set the trigger.
To emulate BTT's tip tap on touchpad, I use a tipswipe like gesture with swipe to bottom (see on screenshot). It is obviously not the same, but feels similar enough.
I second this request. While the "workaround" by wadimw isn't bad, it would be great, if it could be exactly the same as in BetterTouchTool.
