Advanced gestures recognition

Note: Advanced gesture recognition settings only apply to Windows.

You can choose "Wacom" or "Application" as your gesture recognizer. This is a global option and will apply to all of your applications, unless you create Application-specific settings.

WacomThis is the default selection. It will provide a consistent touch experience across applications: a 3-finger touch gesture will work the same in both Application A and Application B. This selection allows you to create custom 3-, 4- and 5-finger touch gestures.
Application Select this option if you want the currently active application to control your 3-, 4- and 5-finger touch gestures. Windows will pass the gesture to each application. If the application supports that gesture, it will be activated.

Different applications will have different ways of responding to the same gesture. For example: a 3-finger gesture in application A might perform one behavior, while the same 3-finger gesture in Application B might perform another.

Note: The Advanced gestures tab is disabled when you select the Application option.
