Ciao BTC Just general comment on "touch tools" & "gestures". This is not observation on your excellent tuning of Hammer.js which is working well, I think. But has some bearing, I think, on its reception and documentation in TW.
I only just began to get my head round cross-platform issues. Its been quite difficult to differentiate what are intrinsic issues from implementation issues. Your latest works well so it easier to see the "problems"--well, better, "differences." I try be brief ... -- there are some variations between platforms, due, probably, to their OS? One thing is the "gestures" tend to differ a bit. Its not so much a problem. But on each platform (& maybe browser too?) there is a kind of gestural finesse you need to learn (in your hand) to make the use seamless. I think that is a normal problem. iOS, Android & Windows do work a bit differently. -- finger/pen tap rate and mouse-clicks I think is an issue. I can click a mouse at speed. I can tap a pen only slightly slower. Finger is relatively sluggish. This can matter for practical usage on TAP. On desktop (mouse click) rate is a doddle, on tablet its not always (finger) perfect at the default speed. *Suggestion: Maybe a more upfront "performance tuner" for TAP Rate could help alleviate such issues between platforms?* I'd like spend a moment on WINDOWS touch-tablets. Its quite a complex situation. On a SurfacePro 4 with Win10, for instance, you could be in "keyboard" (physical keyboard) mode, or "tablet only" mode--and in both cases either with or without a mouse and, or, a stylus. Too many combinations to test thoroughly. But... -- PINCH looks unworkable as the OS, I think, reserves it as basic to its own working for global sizing; -- PRESS (for the sound in your example) doesn't work reliably. Sometimes it does. Sometimes it doesn't. I will try it in other browsers than FF to check if its an OS or browser issue. -- SWIPE works as expected -- PAN works well. BUT you need learn a specific gesture in some circumstances so as override the OS default behaviour first. If you want more info on this issue let me know. On Windows 7 touchless Desktop, as expected I could make everything work except pinch, (which desktops, basically, don't support). I think the point in this, without having to get bogged down in a million variants, is simply to document that * you need to play a bit on each platform/browser combo to finesse its exact gestures.* Best wishes Josiah -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
