Simulate gestures in the iPhone Simulator iPhone
Thu, Mar 13 2008 at 7:30AM PDT • Contributed by: jamieflanagan
You can simulate the 'pinch to zoom' gesture of the iPhone in Apple's Aspen Simulator by holding down the Option key while clicking the mouse in the area you wish to pinch. This brings up a pair of dots that represent your fingertips.

Not a hint...a feature

Normally I don't complain about common knowledge hints because ... well, more hints are a good thing. However, this "hint" is directly covered in training videos.

Don't forget to use Shift while holding Option to lock the two "fingers" positions relative to each other.

Do you really think it's a good idea to be publishing hints about material covered under Apple's NDA?

I can see you in Boston 1773.

"Guys, do you really think it's a good idea to be tossing all this tea into the water?"

It's asinine to have an NDA on an SDK. That's Microsoftian. Toss the tea!

Do you really think that any component of the now-publicly-released SDK -- which has been downloaded (and therefore disclosed) over 100,000 times -- could still possibly be considered to be subject to a Non-Disclosure Agreement?

I didn't download the devkit and was wondering about that. Thank you for clarifiying this!
