Trackpad Gestures
These are the default settings that we recommend. However, you can customize actions associated with each gesture in the preference panel. You may need a little practice to find the correct way to perform the gestures.
You can perform these gestures even when your hand lies horizontally. If you usually rest your thumb on the trackpad, the program will simply ignore your thumb.
