Gestures - ADDITIONAL MAPPING SUPPORT + general feedback on gestures
Puppy Dreamer
This will only appeal to a certain audience who uses gesture based mapping. BUT- I think with additional support added it COULD appeal to EVERYONE.
Gestures are something that can be used for:
RLV commands
Accessibility support
Gamers in secondlife
Friend interaction ESP if don't use voice
Presets for DJ's, Hosts, or sim Owners
+ MANY more uses!
CURRENTLY: We have no way to change the "default" mapping of using ctrl and alt for LOT of opening of menu's. There is no way to remap this in modern viewers as it could break things. See here for these specific keybinds I am referencing- https://community.secondlife.com/knowledgebase/english/keyboard-shortcuts-r369/
WITH THE ABOVE INFO IN MIND: Why in heaven's do we ONLY allow- SHIFT or CTRL as the first "qualifier" keybind. Considering most letters and others are used via ctrl and we cant change them? If we could add more support for combinations, we could have increased access to gesture mapping and utilize the keyboard better. I know I cant be the only one who uses nearly every option available for accessibility, fun, and interaction with others?
WHAT I AM ASKING: If we could add more support for gestures and allow more mapping. I won't be greedy and ask for third party control support for gestures, but any additional support could go a long way for some folx. If we could at min get ALT + SHIFT AND ALT / SHIFT on the FIRST qualifier box- would be good but allowing either side to have the same button options would be way better- that way we can do tons of diff combo keys and re-use buttons over and over (such as Q, Q+Q, W+Q, E+Q, etc etc)
ADDITIONALLY: Adding in general more supports for gestures as we get SLua implemented would be great. For the "Library" section- could add more Key-Moments / Calls such as -stop sound- -stop ALL animation (I'm aware you can via a sub click under animation but it's not as intuitive)- and I have heard others mention channeling- while I can see it works via chat, would be nice to think on reworking make easier flow too. I also wish to have a button SOMEWHERE in inventory or menu to STOP all gestures- like we have in avatar health. Sometimes u mis-click or drop a keyboard and it GOES OFF- and u need to be able to stop it all.

This could open up a lot of Cool Options

Adding to this: Please can we get consistent key naming for non-US keyboards? Half the special keys in the list are effectively unusable on UK keyboards, as the symbols are on entirely different keys. This feels like something that should've been figured out long ago.
