Currently I’m only implementing the basic multitouch gestures that all
the systems seem to share:
- scroll/pan
- swipe
- pinch
- rotate
I could pass on *all* touch events, not just gestures, but I’m worried
it will result in a deluge of ‘<touch-event> is undefined’ messages
whenever the touchpad/touchscreen is used. Passing on all touch events
might be what’s needed to work up a touch version of strokes.el,
though.
(I think swipe may be a touch‐screen only thing as I can’t get it to
work using my touchpad, it just seems to result in scrolling. Or maybe
it’s just not what I think it is.)
