What I meant when mentioning galaxy s and Motorola xoom was that pinch zoom is supported within a browser. I've heard upgrading galaxy s to 2.2 removes this but I never bother about upgrading os on my phone.
In my case multitouch and pinch zoom in particular works with native browsers on both mentioned devices. It also works with web view instantiated by phonegap without any problems. On the other hand HTC Desire hd we also use for testing does not offer multitouch for the native web browser and the webview of phonegap. So once again it depends on a combination of the os and the browser ;-) -----Original Message----- From: Greg Allensworth [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, October 21, 2011 5:54 PM To: Dominik Mikiewicz Cc: 'Richard Greenwood'; [email protected]; 'OpenLayers mailinglijst' Subject: Re: [OpenLayers-Users] Zoom out on Android On 10/21/2011 8:46 AM, Dominik Mikiewicz wrote: > Android 2.1 on galaxy s does support pinch zoom.

On many droids such as my HTC Incredible running 2.1 and 2.2, the pinch is used by the OS to magnify the screen. It's not a browser window resize nor a mouse event passed into the browser; it's much like using the screen magnifier on other OSs. That's nice to know though, that some droids do support pinch. Hopefully future ones will too, as I like the pinch effect a lot. -- Greg Allensworth, Web GIS Developer BS A+ Network+ Security+ Linux+ Server+ GreenInfo Network - Information and Mapping in the Public Interest 564 Market Street, Suite 510 San Francisco CA 94104 PH: 415-979-0343 x302 FX: 415-979-0371 email: [email protected] Web: www.GreenInfo.org www.MapsPortal.org Subscribe to MapLines, our e-newsletter, at www.GreenInfo.org _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/openlayers-users
