Turn advanced gestures on/off
Turning on advanced gestures gives you two additional gestures, previous
and next, and also changes the way you make the back gesture and the
forward gesture in Web. Having these gestures on or off affects the way
you can switch among open applications on your smartphone.
•
Previous and next gestures: The previous and next gestures let you move
among your open applications without first going to Card view. The
previous gesture is a full swipe from left to right across the entire length
of the gesture area. The next gesture is a full swipe from right to left
across the entire length of the gesture area. Use these gestures when
you have more than one app open and an app is displayed full-screen.
By making the previous and next gestures, you go from full-screen view
to full-screen view of each app. The order of applications is determined
by the order that you opened them or arranged them in Card view.
•
Change to the back gesture and to the forward gesture in Web: The
back gesture still goes from right to left in the gesture area, but you must
make a shorter swipe, from the centre outwards. The forward gesture in
Web also requires a shorter swipe.
