Trackpad Gestures for Google SketchUp?

Dear friends,
I'm using a Macbook Pro and the trackpad with gestures and finding it extremely usefull.
Not using the mouse anymore as now my hands are always on the keyboard. And I also found my carpal tunnel issues are disappeared since I started using the trackpad gestures.
So my question is if you know how to setup gestures on the trackpad so I can rotade 3D objects in SketchUp.
Does anyone know anything about SketchUp and Gestures?
Is there any program around to create personalize gestures? I thought it would have been poissible with Snow Laopard but it is not.
Thanks!!!!

Possible there is noone around that knows something?????? :O

Is there a way to change the trackpad gesture for "show desktop?"

I find the "spread with thumb and three fingers" gesture kind of cumbersome. Is there a way to change it in system preferences to something else?

Just FYI, someone on another topic suggests spreading all 5 fingers at once to reveal the desktop and I, personally, find this FAR more effective (I couldn't do the 3 fingers + thumb either).
They also said you could use use fn+11 and that seems to work too.

Can't get trackpad to recognize three finger tap gesture for left click

Hello,
Hoping someone can help me. I am new to mac and just got a mbp 13. I have magicprefs installed so I can add various trackpad gestures. I have it set up so that when I do a 3 finger tap it should equal a left click. No matter what I do, the trackpad doesn't recognize this.
The trackpad recognizes the 2 finger tap as right click just fine, so I'm not sure what the problem is. Do I have to enable or disable something in the system preference trackpad box to allow for a left click gesture?
Any help would be appreciated-I use left click a lot and it would be great to just do this with a 3 finger tap. Thanks in advance.

Google Sketchup app for the iPad?

Does anyone know if there is any plan for a Google Sketchup app for the iPad?

Might be a questions best asked of Google.
Have you checked the app store?

Is there an official list of all multi-touch gestures for Lion?

from Apple?

>Open your user guide for the computer
Where is the guide? Stored inside the iMac or do you mean the little booklet that came in the box? Those little booklet don't have much information.
> or open Trackpad preferences.
Not all gestures are in the Trackpad preference, for example, the 3 finger tab for word definition is not in there. This is the reason I wonder what other gestures might there be that I don't know.

Trackpad gesture acting weird.

I have a 13" MBP, purchased Mid-2012. It has been wonderful so far. I use most of the trackpad gestures frequently. I have searched high and low for an answer to my problem. My trackpad has been flawless up until the last week. Show Desktop is a gesture that I use a LOT. Within the past week that gesture seems to do it on its own. If I just touch the trackpad sometimes Show Desktop will activate. I narrowed it down to when I swipe from the bottom left corner to the top right corner is when it only works. And it's only that gesture. I have tried everything I can to fix this. I shut off all of my gestures, restarted, shut down, and even re-installed Mountain Lion. None of that worked. Although I use the gesture a lot, it gets annoying quickly. Just wondering if there was any explanation to this and if it's just me. Thanks in advance.

I must also add that when I figured out the gesture from corner to corner, it was only using one finger.

What versions of Macbook Pro do not support all trackpad gestures?

What versions of Macbook Pro don't support gestures for left and right scrolling on the desktop in MIssion Control.
I have several MBPs and to be honest, I can't remember what hardware supports these Lion features.
Help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jim P.

Additional info: there are a small subset of 4,1 MBPs that have the multitouch trackpad. I have one, purchased in late March 2008, just after Apple announced the feature was added to the MBP. I can scroll left/right in MC.

Simultaneous trackpad gestures gone in Lion

I used to be able to perform trackpad gestures at the same time as clicking down on the trackpad. This has gone in Lion; now when you click, no gestures can be performed at the same time. Can this be turned back on?
Examples of where I used to use it (and I did it a LOT):
• Click down on a file, then with my other hand I'd do a 4 finger swipe up to show the desktop. This is an easy way to drag files to folder on the desktop/pen drives etc.. without having to do it in finder.
• Same as above, but with a 4 finger swipe down to being up Expose. When dragging files in/out/to/from different applications, it's nice to be able to do this all from the trackpad.
I know for the second one I can just press F3 to bring up mission control, and there's probably an easy solution for the desktop as well, but it just seems weird that since upgrading to the new OS, I actually lose functionality from the trackpad.

I was having the same problem, I found a fix by changing the preferences to without inertia and after a reboot it fixed the problem, I can now scroll with inertia. Looks like a .plist got jumbled.

Back/forward trackpad gestures in other places (Finder, Firefox, ...) in os x lion

the two finger slide effect for browseing history (of a tab) in safari seems such a cool new feature
however , I couldn't figure out which trackpad gesture shall I use to navigate in other applications
such as finder to browse one folder up....
does anybody know any solution?

To get it to work in Finder, you have to set 'Swipe between pages' to 'Swipe with 2 or 3 fingers' in Trackpad preferences.

Trackpad gesture spaces switch turns screen gray

After upgrading my AirBook to Mountain Lion, I frequently have an issue where a single finger trackpad gesture to the left or right edge of my screen causes my entire screen to turn gray. The only way I've found to get my screen (and spaces) back is to use a keyboard shortcut to go to a different space than the one I had been in; a keyboard shortcut to activate the space I had been in does nothing.
I have an upgraded ML installations on an iMac and a MacBook that do not exhibit this behavior.
Has anyone encountered this and found a fix?
TIA

I found now BetterTouchTool where I can set up nearly everything as gestures on mouse, trackpad, keyboard, and and and.
A absolute mighty multi setting tool, very cool.
I just configured my old and beloved gestures in:
Gestures / Trackpads / Global / Four Finger Swype Right / Predefined Action: Application Switcher
I activated as well:
Action Settings (Window Snapping etc.) / Settings for predefined actions / Use special application switcher
Which is even more comfortable as the former origin gesture was.
I used "Advanced" Settings.
So now I won't be sad for the missing of this former useful gesture anymore, if this great app won't crash or be suddenly not free anymore etc.
Strange, that Yosemite just skipped this great gesture but never mind, other things are great therefore.

Missing preview fullscreen zoom and trackpad gestures

in 10.5 it was possible to zoom a picture or pdf in preview's fullscreen mode with cmd and +/-.
but in 10.6 it seems to be no longer possible. some say that you still can zoom in fullscreen mode with trackpad gestures. but is there a solution without trackpad gestures on an older MacBook?
this problem leads me to the general question if it is possible to do trackpad gestures on an old macbook by pressing any extra keyboard key in addition to a one or two finger trackpad action?
thank you for hints.
hans

thank you.
for viewing pdf's i use skim now. it still can zoom in fullscreen.

MAC OS X Leopard and Google SketchUp

Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has run into any Google SketchUp issues, once they have installed Leopard? I have noticed that after I installed it that SketchUp is slower then before, and that while I am using the program, I will frequently get the Beach Ball icon when doing a simple task like clicking a grouped object. If anyone else has had this problem or has heard of any fixes, please let me know! Thank you very much!
Daniel

Please go to http://groups.google.com/group/Sketchup-Pro/topics and we'll hunt this down for you and post back results (the noise of what's happening probably not that helpful here). Please note computer model (memory, graphics card, etc...), OS version (e.g. 10.5 / 9A581) and we'll test the appropriate configuration. Apple has been VERY good to work with on these issues. The only issues we've posted thus far are at http://sketchup.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=79634
Thanks.

Safari trackpad gestures font resize suddenly disabled in 10.8.2 after update? Can't find way to re-enable.

Hello, I rarely come here for help but I am really puzzled...
Safari trackpad gestures font resize were suddenly disabled in 10.8.2 and I wonder if it was after a recent update?
Can't find way to re-enable. Checked everywhere (Touchpad, Accessibility, etc.).

I had a similar problem with my mac. I connect via Airport and one day after I updated some 3rd party software I had the same experience with Software update. I also couldn't connect using Safari however Firefox worked fine and as expected the Network was hooked up and running fine. I didn't try adding an Administrator account which sounds like a good idea since I just did a backup of my system the night before. I cloned my mac from my external drive and everything worked fine. I believe that a system file was corrupt which was causing my problems. So if the new Administrator account doesn't work it's a system wide problem and you options would be to archive and install or using a backup if one is available. Good luck.

How to use trackpad gestures with Windows 8 Developer Preview?

I have installed a Windows 8 Developer Preview on my MacBook via BootCamp Assistant. I found that it isn't support the trackpad gestures! (ex: two-fingers tap to right-click)
So how can I use the trackpad gestures with Windows 8?
Thank you for all reply.

The BootCamp drivers that you can download and burn to a disc via the Boot Camp application in Mac OS can be installed in Windows 8 (run setup.exe from the disc while in Windows 8, preferably by right-clicking and choosing "Run as Administrator") and will allow you to use all of the current features of the touchpad (including two finger clicking/tapping). Once you have installed the drivers as described above, you can then click on the arrow in the System Tray and right-click on the black triangle that is for the BootCamp control panel. In those settings you can change how the touchpad responds to your taps, clicks, etc.

Where did the swipe gestures for web browsers go?

If you configure your trackpad settings for "Swipe between pages" TO "two or three fingers" you'll get the functionality back on firefox. To also correct the issue on Magic Mouse, if you happen to own one, configure the same setting to: "one or two fingers" under Mouse settings.
