Notes:

• Recapping the gestures.
  • Features only available in Jelly Bean.
  • Tips on getting the gestures right: relax and practice.
  • Gestures can be reassigned in TalkBack Settings.
• The global menu.
  • How talkBack menus work.
    • The touch, explore and lift method.
    • Watch where you put your finger!
    • It's not a circle, it's a wheel.
  • Global reading options.
  • Quick navigation: easy screen overview.
    • The content of the wheel in quick navigation scrolls forward and backwards as you move around.
  • Static options.
    • TalkBack settings.
    • Pause feedback: a demonstration.
• The context menu.
  • Granularity controls.
  • Cursor controls.
    • Focus must be on the edit field.
  • Navigation controls.
    • Navigation controls are specific to webviews and affect their behaviour when swiping through them.
    • BUG: Controls will not appear unless you swipe into a webview.
• Conclusion: These menus are key to making fullest use of available accessibility features and we can expect new features to appear there.
