+1, I'm maintaining a similar kiosk app where everything but single taps (even drag and drop) is disabled to prevent users from (accidentally or intentionally) messing with the page layout. We're still using single-touch panels though, would it be possible/useful to disable multi-touch on the driver/X11 level for this use case? >>> (FWIW, tap and drag already worked with the touchscreen that I'm >>> using. >> >> Tap and drag work in WebKit1 using a recent enough GTK+ version, because >> those features are implemented by GtkScrolledWindow. >> >>> Although oddly right-click via EmulateThirdButton appears to have >>> stopped working somewhere between 1.8.1 and 2.4.5, but as this was >>> also Debian wheezy => jessie the fault may lie elsewhere.) > > If it helps, GTK+ went from 2.24.10 to 2.24.24. > > > _______________________________________________ > webkit-gtk mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-gtk > -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, / Best Regards, Sven Schwedas Systemadministrator TAO Beratungs- und Management GmbH | Lendplatz 45 | A - 8020 Graz Mail/XMPP: [email protected] | +43 (0)680 301 7167 http://software.tao.at
