[opensource-dev] USER STORY for not so far future
As a user, I want to use a multi-touch device (iPad, Android, etc) to control Second Life. The simple technical issue is getting the tablet to talk to the viewer. Of course, the hard issue is creating the insanely great multi-touch interface. For example, touching tablet could re-aim camera. making little walking motions with your fingers could make you walk. two-finger movement could enter mouselook and move. I thought of this because I saw a Mac paint program (on the big screen) where the controls such as palette, color, brush, are on an iPad. Looked really cool.

Not understand sorry... This isn't a LL problem. You can already use iMouse to use your iPad, iPhone or iPod as a multi-touch trackpad and via control panel you can bind multi-touch gesture to keyboard shortcut... -- Sent by iPhone Il giorno 21/ott/2010, alle ore 15:52, Ponzu lee.po...@gmail.com ha scritto: As a user, I want to use a multi-touch device (iPad, Android, etc) to control Second Life.

Now that would be a great thing to document on the wiki - think you can write it up, Francesco? ___ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
Re: [opensource-dev] USER STORY for not so far future
Yes, it is a great thing, but the kind of control I imagine is not tied to keyboard short-cuts. At least, I don't think there is a keyboard shortcut for sit-on-that-chair, or look-to-the-left The background is that I think that the keyboard commands in SL were created by a combination of gamers (wasd) and 3D software users (ctl-cmd-shift X). I am trying to imagine what the fundamental operations are in SL, and then what multi-touch gesture each should map too. Think Tom Cruise in Minority Report... Ponzu waves hand to send emailwsh damn, still there. Guess I'll have to pretend to click on the imaginary button.
