What is Mouse Gestures or Mouse Stroke?Mouse Gestures allow you to operate a computer with simple symbols drawn by the mouse pointer, which means you don't have to touch the keyboard or even click on any menus at all! It helps you control your computer faster and easier than anything else.
(Tip: Some programs refer to mouse gesture as mouse stroke.)
If you want to activate a mouse gesture in Internet Explorer / Firefox / Opera, you have to hold the right mouse button, move your mouse, then release the right button.
With our Mouse Gesture System or Gesture Recognize Engine, the only thing you need to do is moving your mouse to draw a symbol, a letter shape or the trace of a mouse gesture. No need to hold any mouse buttons or press any keys.
With our mouse gesture engine, you can activate any mouse gestures anywhere on your screen. It is not limited to a specified window or an area.Unlike other engines, we don't track the clicking of the mouse. We just track the mouse movements. You may download our products to have a trial, and you will find how amazing would that be!
For example, the image left is the default mouse gesture for mgSwitch. (A letter "C" ?)
To activate this gesture, the only thing you need to do is moving your mouse to draw the trace following the arrows. Doesn't it look like writing a letter "C" on the screen? It's so simple.

If you don't like the image track, you can disable it in the "mgServer Config". Here is the screenshot:
