StrokeIt

Minimize

I seem to have broken StrokeIt. I cannot tell you how devastated I am.

In trying to teach StrokeIt a new gesture, Down - / Down - Down, I apparently over-wrote the normal / Down gesture which originally minimized the current window. I tried to reset the / Down gesture. I tried to teach StrokeIt the / Down gesture. Nothing sticks. Nothing works. I even uninstalled StrokeIt and Reinstalled it, complete with a reboot, telling it to over-write all the other settings I had successfully implemented, just to get that original / Down gesture to work. And StrokeIt still doesn't recognize it! Please help! I've lost one of my favorite gestures!

NT 4.0 Service Pack 6a, Dell Optiplex GXa.

BTW, this application is wonderful.

In .9.2, there was a bug in certain circumstances where StrokeIt would not re-learn gestures. This is probably why it wouldn't re-learn the / Down gesture. This has been fixed in the latest beta.

Since you've already overwritten your custom settings, you may want to try uninstalling strokeit, manually deleting the Program Files\StrokeIT directory, and then reinstalling.

Good luck,

Jeff

Jeff,

Thanks for the ideas. I had been working with the latest version, 9.2a, so I don't know what the problem is. And to complicate matters, at some point StrokeIt started recognizing the minimize stroke again. Who knows?

Should StrokeIt differentiate between "Up - Right" and "/ Up - Right"? I can't manage to teach it to differentiate the one from the other. Am I doing something wrong?

Jeff.

You will probably not have much luck getting strokeit to differentiate between "Up - Right" and "/ Up - Right" because it's curve smoothing algorithm will probably straighten the "/ Up -Right" into "/ Up" or "Up - Right"
