If users have the Remote Link app installed on their mobile and tablet devices, then they are able to control their computer through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connections like a remote controller. The final tab within the Smart Gesture window is ‘Mobile Control’. If this option is not selected, then people will have to implement this function manually when they want to sync a mouse to their laptop computer. On the upper menu within the user interface, the second tab is ‘ Mouse Detection’ which allows the application to automatically disable the touchpad when a Bluetooth adapter or USB cable is connected to a handheld mouse. Lining the bottom of this window are the button choices: ‘ Set all to default’, ‘OK’, ‘Cancel’, and ‘Apply’. This motion would initiate Microsoft Cortana, notifications, and task views or switch pages within the browser. The bottom area is dedicated to ‘ Three/Four Fingers’ selections: whether or not the community desires to tap or swipe with multiple fingers to show the menu. There is an additional specification under the ‘Scroll’ category which details the preference of either moving in the same or reversed direction to scroll with two fingers. These actions are correlated to the ‘ Show pop-up menu’, ‘Scroll’, ‘Zoom’, and ‘Rotate’. The second panel displays the abilities possible with two fingers: tap to display menu, swipe around horizontally or vertically, pinch to zoom in and out, and rotate with two fingers clockwise or instead counterclockwise.

Within all of the sections regarding the number of fingers, people can choose to select all, some, or none of the action choices.

Their capabilities are labeled as ‘ Select’,’Activate’, and ‘Drag’. Each panel within this window can be tailor-made to the user’s touchpad preferences.īeneath the ‘One Finger’ pillar, people can select and unselect the options: tap to choose, double touch to activate, double touch while holding then drag. Within the ‘Gesture’ tab, an encasement with animations being displayed is adjacent to columns of text options: ‘One Finger’, ‘Two Fingers’, and ‘Three/Four Fingers’. Upon opening the ASUS driver from the device manager, the window will have an upper menu bar: ‘ Gesture’, ‘Mouse Detection’, and ‘ Mobile Control’. While the touchpad driver is helpful to an extent, user reviews express software issues: problems performing the declared actions, lag, etc.

Recognizing the necessity to include the requested colloquial actions into their devices, the ASUS team devised a system that will adapt the machine to peoples’ preferred gestures, which include reformed clicking, dragging, scrolling, tapping, etc.
