Click on touch device

[darsain]

I'll look into it. By that I mean I'll try to find some articles or docs regarding click events on touch devices and incorporate that somehow to Sly, as I don't have any device to test it on :) So anything I do for mobile is basically by faith. But it seems that touch events support was successful if it works for you, and there are no other issues :)

The other question: no, forceLeft and forceRight are not supported navigation types.

@lolo34140: do you have by chance also enabled content dragging? do clicks work when you disable content dragging?

Content dragging was enabled by dragContent option in earlier version, and drag option in current API.

Thank you for your answere.

I try with this :

I can click on an item with a touch device but I can't scroll. I can't have the both (finger swipe and finger click) working together.

On ipad and iPhone the scrolling is very slow and buggy. However on a PC this is smooth.

And for the forced position, is there any way to forced on left?

I'm sure this problem was in a very small path length required for a mouse to move before Sly will initialize dragging. This length is 10 pixels, and is OK for a mouse, but it seems to be too low for touch, as that is a lot less accurate.

The commit referenced above implements a ternary statement where if the click started with a touch event, the minimal path for initializing dragging is bumped to 50 pixels. Don't know whether it is enough though. Needs to be tested.

Yeah, @lolo34140 isn't wrong concerning the click on iOS devices. Af first, i wasn't sure whether it was jsFiddle messing up - testing a fiddle on an iPad is awful.

But i moved the code to a local test server, and had the same issue.

Dragging is fine, but the click event doesn't fire on iOS/touch devices, but does on non touch.

I might add that disabling Sly brings back the click functionality on iOS / touch devices. So it appears Sly is interfering with something :/

This issue is described in more detail in #27, so I'm closing this one and moving the conversation there.
