Hello,
I currently use my mouse right button to draw, and use the drawing feature to generate multiple actions, and I love it.
I have a trackpad, and was wondering if it is possible to activate drawing mode using the trackpad?
Thank you
There are many ways to do that.
You can use the default setup that you also use for your mouse. In that case just click the trackpad with two fingers and draw.
Personally I prefer the "3 Finger Drawing" gesture (or 4 finger drawing), which is specifically made for this. It allows you to just draw by moving three fingers
In general you can use any trackpad gesture to start the drawing recognition via the predefined action "Start Recording Drawing / Mouse Gesture". To end the recognition, it's often possible to use the "Execute Named Trigger After Release" functionality:

Hi Andreas,
I like the BetterTouchTool's design that trigger the same drawing recognition by different devices, e.g., right-click of mouse and any trackpad gesture. So that I don't need to set mouse gestures and trackpad gestures separately.
But I still wander if it is possible to start drawing while thumb is put on the bottom edge of trackpad and stop recognition after thumb leaves the trackpad.
This feature has been implemented in another software BetterAndBetter_BAB_Mac手势_Mac切换app_Mac快速打开app_Mac效率神器_Mac平滑滚轮 (better365.cn) (I'm not sure whether it has English version).
