Quick Menu

This menu provides a host of handy shortcuts, alleviating the need to memorize a plethora hotkeys and gestures.

One particularly useful item is the Interactive actions. One may tire quickly from the repition of simply beginning interactive actions using the mapped chain of gestures. It requires memorization of multiple gesture chains and then flawless execution. Once that has been achieved, however, the real work of the hand has just begun. As a quick, anti-fatigue alternative, use the menu instead.

How it works

Activate the menu by hotkey or gesture (Default hotkey is Win + A. Default gesture is Swipe Left, Swipe Right). Think of this menu like extended options for the standard windows menus...

Navigational tips

This menu is quite navigable -- you can navigate using no hands via the Leap Motion Controller! Here's an exhaustive list of the ways to navigate:

1. Menu item hotkeys: Each menu item starts with a number. If you press this number on the keyboard, the menu navigates to that option. This method is fast.
2. Keyboard

   Hotkey	Action
   Up Arrow	Moves selection up
   Down Arrow	Moves selection down
   Left Arrow	Exits out of current menu.
   Escape	Exits out of current menu.
   Right Arrow	Submits current selecton.
   Enter	Submits current selection.
   Numpad Enter	Submits current selection.

3. Mouse

   Hotkey	Action
   Wheel Up	Moves selection up
   Wheel Down	Moves selection down
   Left Click	Submits current selecton.
   Middle Wheel	Submits current selecton.

4. Leap Motion Controller: A semi-opaque circle will apear which acts as a pointer. It tracks the first finger which comes into view of the controller. Hover over an item for 1 second to submit the selection. Place the circle completely off all menus to exit all menus. To go back to a previous menu, simply place the circle on the item you wish to select. Note: due to limitations of the Leap Motion Controller, it is recommended that you navigate using at least 2 fingers
