"For existing Flash content developed with mouse input in mind, Flash Player will automatically convert the touch events into mouse events. This allows Flash content designed for the desktop, to work seamlessly on touch-based devices."
I can't wait to try http://www.dontclick.it/ http://www.dontclick.it/ on a touch based device!
- pan69 16y agoWill work just fine. On a touch device you use your finger to move the mouse, what would be the problem?
- thamer 16y agoNo it won’t. Touch events being transformed into click events means that a finger touch and swipe will be translated into a clic & drag. How do you differentiate click & drag from hover & move?
- not_an_alien 16y agoClick & drag events: mouse over -> mouse down -> mouse move Hover & move events: mouse over -> mouse move Since that website does not take mouse down into consideration (taking no action), then yes, 'click & drag' would work perfectly well.
- marr 16y agoOne problem would be that at best you still have a finger blocking some screen content, and at worst your whole hand is blocking. Is something in the upper left corner an "on-finger-over" that brings up a chunk of text you need to read? Uh oh. Another would be constantly having to make the effort to not lift your finger(s). Need to reach for a pen so you can write down what you are seeing on the screen? Is that a "let-go" or a "hang-on-a-second-pretend-that-didnt-happen" gesture? These are limitations of touch interfaces. Touch is not panacea; it's the finger painting of the computing world. That's why it appeals to those who need simple.
