I have and early '08 MBP now with 10.6. Saw the Apple video on the multitouch in the new MBPs. Set it up in sys pref and tried it. Works great. Any tips on how you use it?
 
Multitouch, use it for Expose

In Firefox use multitouch, use it for navigating between tabs, moving forward and back.

Also use tap to click a lot
 
I'm finding other uses for multitouch. Like in Xcode you can toggle between header and implementation files with 3 fingers. I try 3 and 4 finger swipes in all my apps. Hopefully there's more.
 
Multitouch, use it for Expose and Spaces.

How are you utilizing MultiClutch with Spaces?

I love Spaces, use it everyday but since getting my 13 MBP I can't use any keyboard shortcuts so resort to activating Spaces using an Expose corner...but i'm curious how you're using MultiClutch and Spaces??

Yeh, dunno why I wrote Spaces, didn't mean that at all.
 
Im assuming hes trying to say that he disabled all of the multitouch features in SL

Personally when I 1st got MultiClutch thought I was gonna be setting up gestures for most of my most used apps but turns out I mainly only use it for FireFox.

3 finger gesture to the left to open up a closed tab and 3 fingers to the right to open up a new tab.

I guess i'm not a fan of using nothing but fingers all of the time...




...unless its a girl.
