Does anyone know what is the status with 'greedy mode' support? It appears that there is no movement on either this or the ability to disable gestures resulting in various onliune postings for how to hack the .cpp to disable these.
Personally: Unity's current denial of multi-touch access to applications essentially makes the operating system unusable for certain applications. Try drawing with 3 fingers under Unity. Or are we saying the Unity design pre-dates and outranks painting? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.

Steps to reproduce: ---------------------------- 1 Install touchegg by "sudo apt-get install touchegg" 2 Start touchegg in terminal 3 Try out some multi-touch gestures and notice only upto 2 finger touch are recognized 4 Now either use metacity, gnome-shell or compiz (with unity plugin disabled) as your window manager 5 Repeat 2, 3 and notice all gestures defined in ~/.config/touchegg/touchegg.conf work fine. I think the best solution here is to remove multi-touch capabilities from unity and put them in a separate compiz plugin like drag handles is now. This would allow easy customization of gestures and the plugin can be turned off so 3rd party apps can take control.
