JGD Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Hi guys! I've just found the most exciting article about haptic feedback on OS X apps… It seems Apple is experimenting with it already! http://www.wired.com/2015/03/apples-haptic-tech-makes-way-tomorrows-touchable-uis/ Which reminds me of one of my favourite features of Freehand (though it was extremely annoying for everyone else nearby), which was sound feedback (namely for stuff such as snapping). I wonder if Affinity could stand to benefit from these brand-spanking new trackpads that Apple is sure to be rolling across their whole Mac lineup very soon (the 13'' Retina MacBook Pros already have them, too, so it shouldn't take more than two or three revisions for them to trickle up and down the other product lines – maybe even including the external magic trackpad and mice?)… Maybe you could implement some sort of quieter form of feedback that leveraged those newfangled capabilities? That would be incredibly cool, IMHO. As for the implementation of said features, I have no idea whether Apple is using private APIs but, even if they are, it stands to reason that those should be included in the next version of OS X and Xcode, am I right?
