A simple gesture-based joystick menu
Command Stick Extension
Navigating to a menu item becomes a single gesture. The real value comes with repetition – users go from navigating a menu to inadvertently learning a gesture. There is no limit on how fast gestures can be performed.
How it works:
1: Summon CS using ctrl+right click or by double right clicking
2: Drag around the circle to select a menu item
3: Release to execute the command
4: The space is reused allowing multiple commands to fit within the small footprint
**Important** : Extensions cannot run on internal chrome pages such as new tab.
Command Stick offers rapid access to:
→ dial scrolling
dial zooming
scroll to top
scroll to bottom
new tab, close tab
toggle full screen
refresh page
zoom reset
copy, paste, cut
delete, undo, redo
share (Twitter)
select all, unselect all
audio accessibility assistance
navigation on select webpages
and more!
By default CS summons on second right click – this will display the context menu on initial right click and CS on the second. To swap CS to primary right click, toggle the option in the context menu.
We are currently developing the framework for users to configure custom commands – watch this space!
