Basic Information

These pages provide a brief
tutorial and overview of the MyGesture Editor capabilities.
To get the latest version of the MyGesture Editor, check
our
Downloads Page. You can play with the editor even if
you don't have a FingerWorks product yet. Just load a "demo"
product configuration in the Devices->Offline Editing...
menu after you've installed the utilities.
For this tutorial we are
using an
iGesture Numpad as the FingerWorks device to be configured.
All of our products can be configured using the MyGesture
Editor in a similar fashion.
First, lets take a quick
look at the some of the menu buttons used in the MyGesture
editor:

Factory Defaults
|
This button loads
in the default configuration for the current
FingerWorks device. It will remove all
custom changes made to the configuration. |
Open / Save
Customizations
|
These buttons will
load in and save user customization files.
FingerWorks device customization files are
written in the
Extensible Markup Language (XML) and have
the extension .xml. The current
customization file loaded in the MyGesture
Editor will appear in the title bar. The
above picture shows the file
MyGesture_tutorial.xml file loaded. |
View Printable
Gesture Map
|
This will create a
nice table layout version of your current
gesture set that you can print and use for
reference. You must be online to view the
pictures of the gestures.
Here is an example of a map created using
the default iGesture Numpad configuration. |
Import / Export
Library Module
|
Library modules are
similar to customization files but are used to
load specific gesture sets without overwriting
the entire configuration. Multiple modules
can be loaded at the same time. |
Transfer to...
|
The transfer to
button sends the current configuration to your
FingerWorks device. Please see
Transferring your settings for more info. |
Next we will look
into using the
Feature Selector to set device operating parameters.
