Launch Apps By Touchpad Gestures-Synaptics Scrybe

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could open Mozilla Firefox just by drawing an “M” on your laptop touchpad ? I guess yes. Synaptics Scrybe is one such free tool that lets you open webpages or applications just using some touchpad gestures.
Let me guide you through this simple tool to ease it up a bit.
1. Download Scrybe Beta and install the package. Keep connected to internet while the installation is on. You will be prompted to restart the machine once the installation completes.
2. Now when Windows starts again, you will see the icon in the tray bar.
NOTE : Since this is the beta version there are certain bugs that are still getting reported. One of them is that, it doesn’t start on its own after re-logging in or system restart. In cases like these, you have to restart it on your own.
3. After it has started working you can use it by drawing the gesture on the touchpad while holding down Shift+Ctrl keys(this is the default settings).

Learning And Practicing TouchPad Gestures

1. Double click the tray icon to open the Control Panel for the tool.

2. You will now see a list of gestures to control several shortcuts and places(websites/directories). Just select anyone of them. The gesture will be shown in the right pane. You can look out for a button named Practice to the right, which will help you practice the gestures.

Creating your Own TouchPad Gestures

1. Go to Control Panel(Scrybe). Click the Add a New gesture button.

2. Now define the gesture parameters like name, type(visit website/launch app), the website/app to be opened and the gesture itself.

To tweak the settings, just use the Preferences button in the Control panel window. For more information on how to use the app visit their tutorial page.
