26 Hog 4 Operations Manual
2.2.2 Multi-Touch and Touchscreen Gestures
The Hog 4 OS family of consoles have built-in touchscreens that are capable of responding to
a variety of multi-touch gestures that provide convenient and intuitive methods for interacting
with the user interface of the Hog application. Most external touchscreen monitors that
feature multi-touch input are also supported by Hog 4 OS for multi-touch gesturing.
The following multi-touch features are available on both Hog 4 PC and Hog 4 OS consoles
when a multi-touch screen is used:
Plots: zoom in/out using two finger pinch and spread gesture; vertical and horizontal
navigation of the plot area using two finger touch and drag
Any Window with scroll bars: vertical and horizontal scrolling using two finger touch
and drag within the frame of the window
File browser: open context menu (cut, copy, paste...) using single touch and hold
Spreadsheets: open context menu (copy, paste) using single touch and hold on a cell
Internal Keyboard: type capital letters by holding shift key while typing
Virtual Wing Window: use multiple touch points to adjust the faders and press buttons
Important: Hog 4 OS multi-touch does not allow for multiple windows or touchscreens to be
controlled at once. For example, if a console operator is working with elements on the right
touchscreen and a second operator touches the left touchscreen the touches will likely
interfere with the cursor position and the goals of the first operator. Furthermore, most
elements contained within a window can only be activated one at a time. For example,
pressing two lists in the list directory will not result in execution of both lists.
