Other methods to click

I find the thumb-click thing not relay working too well. Maybe because of the previously mentioned lack of accuracy on the thumb recognition in issue #4 ? Some ideas:

  1. Scissors Click (saw that in a video): Point at the screen with the indexfinger and middlefinger. Bring the two fingers together as if you cut something with a scissor.
  2. Use of the Tap Gesture (will get the "mouse" jumpy?) 3 ...

As for (2)

I believe if some response delay is allowed, then a gesture shouldn't bump the mouse but rather be recognized by the software as one.. but that's less practical if the finger location still needs to represent relative location on screen. Therefore I think a two handed approach should allow both conveniently conveying relative position and a click gesture.

The one thing to take care of, in that approach, is that merely introducing a second hand into the Leap's sensing area for some other two hand gestures, would not trigger a click. I think it's doable.

But this is different than the current two hand approach used here, so you should probably fork it to change....
