For today’s tip, we want to highlight what is in my opinion the most useful of all Chromebook trackpad gestures: the tab scrub. With this simple gesture, you can move quickly and easily between all your open tabs without the need to move your mouse cursor a single pixel on your screen. It comes in handy when you are bouncing back and forth between multiple tabs and doing repetitive functions. It also comes in handy when you need to do things like move between open Gmail tabs and accounts as well.
Even better, there’s no need to turn anything on to get it working. You simply need to place 3 fingers on the trackpad surface, slide left or right, and watch the highlighted tab scrub through all your open tabs. Go ahead, try it out. Open a few tabs and move between them. If you’ve never used this shortcut, your usage may now be forever altered and you will quickly become spoiled by Chrome OS. No other OS has this feature and I’m not sure any other ever will. Once you get used to having it, it makes the absence of it incredibly hard to live without.
