Re: DG2: How much is mobile-only?
Hi all, Swiping in DG2 is NOT mobile-only. Just click and drag in the desktop, and it should work.

For those things requiring multi-touch, yes, it would be nice to see the engine support that on the desktop too. http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=8446 -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ambassa...@fourthworld.comhttp://www.FourthWorld.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Re: DG2: How much is mobile-only?
I don't like presumptiously imposed limits like that. Many Windows laptops and tablets are touch capable, and apps could benefit from swipe gestures. Heck, even with a mouse, as the pointer is merely an extension of your finger. ~Roger On Thu, Dec 28, 2017 at 1:22 AM, Richard Gaskin via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > It seems the swiping in DG2 is mobile only - is that correct?

DG2: How much is mobile-only?
It seems the swiping in DG2 is mobile only - is that correct? What other DG2 goodies are currently only usable on a mobile device? The desktop has become very influenced by mobile design trends. Apple's even begun the move to integrate the two. And the desktop is still where businesses bet on workhorses, and where developers make more money. Much of the new DG would be great on the desktop. So I hope I'm just missing something... -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ambassa...@fourthworld.comhttp://www.FourthWorld.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
