Gestures with multitouch in Ubuntu 10.10

Ubuntu Design

Gestures are a powerful interaction language that will be as relevant for desktops as it is on phones and tablets. Ubuntu 10.10 has a gesture framework that allows for gesture chaining or composition into rich “gesture sentences”. You can use multi-touch gestures for window management with Unity in 10.10 Netbook Edition or on your desktop ...
