Using xinput, I captured touch events on the dock's Applications Grid Button. For comparison, I captured touch events on another portion of the screen, away from the dock.
The results are very interesting... When I click on the Applications Grid Button on the dock, five (!!) Touch events are registered. These five events are enclosed by only one Touch Begin event and one corresponding Touch End event. However, when I click on another portion of the screen, only one Touch events is registered, enclosed by one Touch Begin event and one corresponding Touch End event. This is how the dock should behave. Please see the attached files. I've inserted comments in the output to make it easy to count the events: Touch_Events_For_Dock_2017-11-08-01-PS.txt # (A) TOUCH BEGIN # (B) - TOUCH #1 # (C) - TOUCH #2 # (D) - TOUCH #3 # (E) - TOUCH #4 # (F) - TOUCH #5 # (G) TOUCH END Touch_Events_For_Screen_2017-11-08-01-PS.txt # (A) TOUCH BEGIN # (B) - TOUCH #1 # (C) TOUCH END Description: Ubuntu 17.10 Release: 17.10 Codename: artful Package: gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock Version: 0.7.1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1725384 Title: On touch screens, the apps icon in the dock does not open when touched To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock/+bug/1725384/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
