I did that but after about 15 minutes of pure frustration remembered that 
there is such a function and found the gesture in Anna's quick reference 
card booklet.  Actually having to review the list of gestures one at a time 
caused me to begin my search.  Who wants to get famous or more famous by 
making a reference card which shows action needed before gesture?
