How to disable Gestures? Or make Logos play nice with Intuos?

Hi there!

One annoying thing I am experiencing as I get started is that Logos 5 for Mac HATES my Inuous 5 tablet! I use a pen for most mousing as it is faster, easier on my wrists, and more accurate. 

But...Logos 5 refuses to play nice. Every time I right click on the pen, I activate a gesture, fairly randomly. I suspect the resolution of the tablet, being quite immense, completely fools the gestures algorithm and even minor wiggles become gestures. 

Buit yet...I cannot see how to disable gestures! I have searched in the help online and in app, as well as on preferences. 

This has been one of my fears of getting into Logos all along. It is so amazingly encyclopedic, nanny-like in ways, that one stray move and I have completely trashed a screen I painstakingly developed. I understand I will eventually figure most of this out, but the learning curve seems steep. 

So, at least let me shut off this nanny tool!

Shalom!

    Welcome Stephen

    Logos is not particulalrly (touch) tablet friendly in other ways, but there is no way to disable gestures.

    [:(] On my NON-TOUCH W8 laptop, I keep getting in trouble with unintentional gestures, too. Maybe in Logos. Often in W8. And sometimes, I'm  not sure of which...

    Grace & Peace,

    Well thanks for the info! 

    I am am sure the Logos people are listening...

    aids are useful and helpful, but not always needed or wanted by your user base. So please make the application more user friendly to tablets/pen interface or allow us to disable the functionality.

    i have always thought that gestures are theoretically useful but practically difficult because it depends on my fallible memory. Even now I cannot remember all the gestures in Mac OSX!
