Feature request: pan using touchscreen without changing tool #168

Closed ianbrody closed 1 year ago

ianbrody commented 3 years ago

It would be really great if, after disabling drawing with the touch screen, dragging the touchscreen with one's finger would instead pan even when the drawing tool is selected. I know I could change the tool for this, but it's an extra step and I'm used to other drawing apps (e.g. xournalpp, but probably most of the non-web ones) that do this. Second-best would be for two-finger drag to act as panning (this is what awwapp does).

PR #111 is a work-in-progress to address this (two-finger drag specifically). I should try to get to finishing it to at least support this functionality.

I feel like one-finger drag isn't a great idea, because it would be easy to accidentally drag while using the pen and resting your palm. (Some tablets aren't perfect at palm rejection.)

2-finger drag with touch drawing disabled is now implemented. (A while ago actually; I forgot this was a separate issue.)
