Send/receive gestures over Universal Control

Open barrettford opened this issue 2 years ago • 9 comments

Examples: Scenario 1: Mac with Jitouch installed shares magic trackpad/keyboard with second mac without Jitouch installed. Use a jesture. Expected behavior: Nothing, second mac should behave as if I do not have Jitouch installed. Actual behavior: Focus suddenly jumps back to host machine and starts doing odd things, like renaming files.

Scenario 2: Mac without Jitouch installed shares magic trackpad/keyboard with second mac with Jitouch installed. Use a jesture. Expected behavior: Expect Jitouch on 2nd machine to intercept and interpret gesture. Actual behavior: Nothing, second mac behaves as if I do not have Jitouch installed.

I know that universal control is sending gesture data over, since I can perform all system gestures just fine. Interestingly, if the host machine has "Swipe up with 3 fingers" to view Mission Control, and the second machine has "Swipe up with 4 fingers" to view Mission Control, the host machine behaves as expected but the second machine can view Mission Control by swiping up with both 3 or 4 fingers.

Obviously, the second scenario is more of a feature request, but it feels like a bug.
