iMovie-force touch-0

La iMovie update to version 10.0.7Released in early March, it contains some nifty features for the lucky users of one of the new MacBook Pro or MacBook Air that have recently been released that integrate Force Touch haptic technology into their trackpads. This function so commented on in many articles acquires a new nuance within iMovie depending on the context in which we use it, that is, for example when drag the bar within a video clip until the end, the feedback from the trackpad will vibrate to let us know that we have reached the end of it.

Besides being an add-on, it has a utility that makes the user experience is more immersive When editing content, being able to trim the clip and feel on the trackpad each time we drag the cursor and point out where to cut, the good thing is that being sensitive to pressure, the intensity of the vibration increases depends on how let's press it.

Apple showcased this Force Touch feature when it announced the new 12-inch MacBook, which would also be joined by the 13 ″ MacBook Pro with Retina display and the MacBook Air. On the other hand, it is important to note that the Wall Street Journal recently stated that Apple also I would plan to introduce the Force Touch feature on the touch screen of the next generation of iPhone, something that clearly would be a very interesting addition with which to explore new functions of the device.

Clearly in the presentation Apple focused on using this feature to control the way in which OS X or an application responds to different levels of pressure. Already in the OS X 10.10.3 beta versions We can see how they have introduced tools for developers to take advantage of this new function, we will see if in the end all the potential that it seems to hide is taken out of it.
