Hand guide

Every hand position, in order.

Your right hand is the mouse. Your left hand moves 3D models. Here is each move, from the first wave to letting go.

Fine control

Slow down for small targets.

Pinched hand with middle, ring and pinky fingers pulling down

Pinching slows the cursor a little. To slow it more, pinch, then pull your ring finger down. Your middle and pinky fingers go with it.

The cursor moves in finer steps the further you pull. Let your fingers up and it speeds up again.

Scroll, grab, dictate.
