Can no longer swipe to change pages on touch screen #420

Open cassidyjames opened 4 years ago

cassidyjames commented 4 years ago

Maybe something changed in Handy?

danirabbit commented 4 years ago

Looks like drag and drop from buttons is interfering. There's a commit in Hdy master that makes me feel like you might be right

cassidyjames commented 3 years ago

Sounds like we need to open an issue upstream. @danrabbit do you happen to remember what that commit was? :sweat_smile: I guess looking before October 2, 2020 could narrow it down.

danirabbit commented 3 years ago

@cassidyjames so, this one has a sus title but I haven't tested it

danirabbit commented 3 years ago

It looks like there's some discussion from November here that seems to point to a similar issue in Phosh

this issue still persist on latest release. (elementary 7.0 Horus)

Is there any other significance of the drag other than pinning apps to the dock?

Given that this happens due to a conflict with drag and drop, I have a suggestion. What if dragging immediately doesn't initiate drag&drop events, but triggers the swipe gesture. In order to drag and drop, one has to touch and hold for a second before moving. It's a common interaction on smart phones (there's usually a haptic / vibration feedback when drag and drop is initiated). Also may be touching and holding and not moving the finger before removing the finger can trigger the context menu.

@SubhadeepJasu yeah I would be in favor of long-press-to-edit. This solution makes sense to me and like you said is a common interaction behavior on other platforms

SubhadeepJasu commented 9 months ago

Great! I'll make a pr of this then.
