Function 2: Gestures
This is a somewhat new age feature, I think it would work best if you have a touch screen computer (or if it works or will at sometime work with smart-phones) basically it worked by making motions with your mouse while holding down the right button. Now there are several motions which you can make, a full list is in the help files of Logos. I have done some experimenting with a few. Such as the right and left, up and down motions. I found the motions for me to be somewhat difficult to maneuver, however I am using a computer with a mouse on a TV tray in my living room. Even with all these things stacked against me, I did get it to work, which was fun. I think that if I spent more time working with these I could get all of them to work and minimize my time with scrolling and focus on more of what I want to do instead and the like with the mouse. However, I already do not use and move things as much as perhaps others would and so this function while neat, seems a little unneeded to me. However I do know that touch screens and the like are growing in popularity, and could honestly say that if I had a touch screen window, that this feature would be one of the highlights of Logos. I do not think that these capabilities are on the smart-phone portions of Logos yet, they may be integrated into the phone already so they would be unnecessary. So basically, it is fun to look at these and if you would benefit from them, definitely something to spend time with learning, but for me it is not very useful at this time.
