Multi-Touch Interface

The Lyft multi-touch interface is designed for ease-of-use. According to your location in the software,
the multi-touch behavior changes.
The backstage view uses, dialog boxes, and setup wizards, the multi-touch behavior is standard: a
short tap on an element of the GUI enables the associated function, exactly as it would at the click
of a mouse. The table below summarizes the various behavior according to the view you are using.
