An alternative technique to execute a command in the marking menu involves
gesture behavior. This is useful when you are well conversant with the marking
menu layout and need a faster way to execute commands. Hence before using
gesture behavior, a little practice with the marking menu to develop some
muscle memory (familiarity) around the layout of the marking menu is helpful.
A gesture consists of starting the marking menu (right mouse down),
immediately dragging the cursor to the location of the intended marking
menu wedge and releasing the right mouse button before the entire marking
menu is displayed. If these operations are completed within 250 milliseconds,
only the selected wedge is briefly displayed to confirm that the operation was
performed.
Here are the steps for executing a gesture,
1 Start the marking menu (right mouse down).
2 Within 250 ms, drag the cursor in the direction of the wedge for the
appropriate operation.
3 Release the right mouse button.
During the drag gesture, a trail is visible in the canvas, showing the cursor
path. When you release the cursor, the selected wedge is displayed for a brief
time span. The command corresponding to this wedge then gets executed.
