@shedrock - OK just tried it and it works.

Save the code below as "SwipeRight.xml" and put it in the keymaps folder in your userdata (wiki) folder on your tablet:

xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<keymap>

<global>

<touch>

<swipe direction="right" pointers="2">Menu</swipe>

</touch>

</global>

</keymap>

Restart Kodi and you can then use a two-finger right swipe to open the blade menu.

@bsoriano - other skins (eg xonfluence) have similar keymap files, so you could maybe add it to Amber if you want?

I've put it at the moment in the general (global) fallback option so it may trigger other menu actions on other screens, but it could perhaps be narrowed down to just specific windows if that is the case and some of the triggers are undesirable. But as a general quick hack it works for me on my Android tablet.

@DarrenHill, excellent, thank you! I will add, perhaps initially just for the media windows.  I will put this in the next version (latest as of a few minutes ago is 3.1.6, this will go on 3.1.7)

Regards,

Bart
