Touchegg not registering gestures on Gnome 3 Shell #84

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Running Gnome 3 on Ubuntu 11.04, Touchegg will only recognize 
gestures/multi-finger-taps while the mouse pointer is over a window. Trying it 
on an empty desktop or the tray doesn't work. This means that 
2-finger-right-click is not accessible.

I never use Gnome Shell, but I think that don't allow to use right click in the 
desktop. You can configure it with "Gnome Tweak Tool" to allow create icons and 
others

Yes it does, if I deactivate touchegg, it works fine. It seems to be a problem 
with utouch, though. It doesn't report gestures properly with Gnome 3, 
currently. So this is probably not a problem in touchegg.

Hi!

Can you run geistest in a terminal and make gestures over the desktop and other 
windows?

Anyway you can deactive the Touchégg two fingers tap gesture and use the 
native synaptics tap, the only problem is that you will have problem if you try 
to use composed gestures with two fingers (tap&hold with two finger or double 
tap with two fingers)

geistest does report the gestures, but they only work if the mouse ptr is above 
windows. but the workaround with using the native two-finger-tap works, thanks

Really I don't know which can be the problem, have you reported it in the 
uTouch web page??

Thank you!
