Working with Touchscreens
The following tables contain actions and their corresponding gestures for touchscreens in Creo View in two modes: navigation mode and multi-selection mode. You can perform the gestures with your fingers or with your hands. For instance, to zoom out using a very large touchscreen, you may want to use both of your hands to pinch:
On a small screen, you can achieve the same gesture using only two fingers of one hand:
To switch between modes, touch and hold three fingers for more than three seconds. Refer to the status bar to determine what the current mode is and to find out which gestures are available.
