Gestures anytime soon?
« on: March 24, 2015, 07:57:34 AM »
So as I (and doubtlessly others) continue the move towards tablet and touch based computers I was wondering if PM will be adding touch based controls into any of the updates on the table. Specifically swiping in the preview view to move to the next file and pinch to zoom?  Maybe a 2 or 3 finger tap to open the IPTC editor?

What OS platform do you use?

Right now it's Windows 8.x on a Surface Pro 3

I have added some gestures already, otherwise you would have found PM completely useless on a Surface.  Two-finger context menu, and two-finger scrolling have been added so far.

Does the two finger scroll work to move between files in the preview window?? I only tried the one finger swipe and I know that doesn't work so I have to peck at the arrows in the upper right corner. Any chance zooming will be coming in the near future?

Possibly.  I have to find time to work on it.  I'm spread a bit thin working on other priorities.
