Hi Jurgen and others,
I didn’t mention that I do have track pad commander enabled. I also
should have said that a single finger double tap does work in some places as it
does on the iPhone, example on a close button or in the extras menu. but in
other places such as mail it doesn’t. As I spend a lot of time in the mail app
not mastering the track pad there is pretty mush a dead end for me.
I think. few years ago I tried to make a custom gesture for enter but failed.
I can give the VO J assignment a try. Still without a enter function I expect
I’ll hit a wall again in another app.
I had hoped in the last few years something might have changed for the track
pad.
Thanks for the great info and tips.

Hi Eric,
I'm not aware of a successful standard gesture to open e-mails via the Trackpad
Commander.There’s no gesture equivalent for Enter.
But what I’ve done was to define my own gesture for VO + j in VO utilities. Now
I’m able to use this gesture to jump to the preview pane and back to the
e-mails table.
Good luck.
