  • SELF-REVEALING SYMBOLIC GESTURES
    Publication number: 20150007117
    Abstract: A computing device implemented method includes recording, in response to an initial user activation event, a first path of a first portion of a direction-specific symbolic swipe gesture. In response to a pause in the direction-specific symbolic swipe gesture, a selected number of possible symbolic gestures are displayed based on the recorded first path that reveal system commands that map to the symbolic gestures. A second path of a second portion of the direction-specific symbolic swipe gesture is recorded. In response to the recorded first and second paths of the direction-specific symbolic swipe gesture and a trigger, a first system command is accessed that maps to the first direction-specific gesture.
