Whoa, awesome! I didn't know this existed!
I have questions!
- How much of that shift-to-get-other-colour-buttons support is still
in the image? So far I haven't touched the default world menu bar, which
is mildly inappropriate for small and/or multitouch devices.
- What other ideas about mapping multitouch to Morphic interaction are
out there I have missed and am in danger of reinventing?
Also, I am intrigued by the idea of simply having each touch be mapped
to a Hand. It seems like the obvious way to do things, on one level, but
doesn't quite fit my fuzzy intuitions for how (multi-finger) gesture
recognition might work on another level. So:
- When you were working on this, did you have any thoughts about
deficiencies of the Morphic model wrt multitouch/gestures/etc., and then
did you have any ideas about what to change and how to change it?
I'll try to cook up a little demo like that sometime soon.
Tony
