4、Swish for macOS
Xiao Bian found that many Apple notebook users around do not like to use the mouse, but prefer to use the touch pad, because the touch pad of Apple notebook is not only light sensitive, but also has many gesture touch functions, such as sliding forward and backward with two fingers, dragging with three fingers, opening the dispatching center with four fingers, which is very convenient to use. Swish is a software specially designed to enhance macOS gestures. It can add more efficient gesture operations for you. When you are familiar with it, it is not only cool, but also very convenient.
In order not to conflict with the system's own gestures, the Swish gesture can be used only when the mouse arrow is placed at the top of the software. In addition, we can also perform a series of shortcut gesture operations on the dock icon, such as closing unused files, quickly opening the software and splitting the screen. The gesture is the same as the menu. Of course, it may take a while for a novice to become familiar with it, but after becoming familiar with it, you will fall in love with it.

You can move, resize, center, use the screen grid, and so on - all without touching the mouse, which can be customized to create a command sequence bound to a shortcut, This simplifies complex movement and sizing operations.
