Activate with: Mouse/Trackpad

It would be nice to be able to show the Radial Menu with:* Mouse/Trackpad** Shaking the mouse - - (Like you do to show the mouse pointer)This allows those of us who prefer the mouse (over keyboard shortcuts) to simply "shake" our mouse/trackpad and instead of showing "where the mouse pointer" is at - the Radial window pop's up at the mouse location.

Great suggestion! We are also planning to implement trackpad gestures and hot corners which would fit perfectly together with this. It’s likely not possible to completely replace and override the native shake to reveal cursor logic as it’s tied into the system, but we should still be able to implement a wrapper on top to show the Radial menu upon shaking the cursor.
