Choose how an edge is triggered

Run different actions on the same edge with a key held, a rest first, a corner, both sides at once, or a circle.

Each row in Settings → Controls, under Aden Edge, has a trigger: how your finger moves to run it.

  1. Choose … on the row.
  2. Pick a Trigger:
  • Slide: one finger along the edge.
  • Rest, then slide: leave your finger on the edge for a moment first.
  • From a corner: start in a corner of the trackpad.
  • fn + slide, ⌥ + slide, ⌘ + slide, ⌃ + slide: slide with that key held.
  • Both sides together or Both sides apart: one finger on each side edge, moving the same way or opposite ways. Aden stops the page from scrolling while you do it.
  • Circle, key held: hold fn, ⌥, ⌘ or ⌃ and draw circles anywhere, like turning a knob.

Two rows can share an edge when their triggers differ, like Brightness on a plain slide and Undo on a rest first.
