Support plotclick and plothover on mobile devices #385

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

On the iPad and other mobile webkit devices, these events don't seem to fire 
when touching the charts that are being drawn. Example here.

The crosshair gets positioned correctly, but the plot events don't work.

That's weird. If somebody can find out what's causing this, it would be cool. 
The crosshair is using mousemove just like the plothover events. I can see why 
multitouch gestures could interfere with the chart interactivity, though, 
somebody needs to think this through.

According to the apple docs, it may be because the element is not "clickable" 
to iOS. In fact, when I make the grid hoverable and clickable, and then tap a 
bar in a bar chart, it does get darker/highlighted, though my plothover event 
doesn't seem to fire. If it's just hoverable and not clickable, nothing 
happens. I had to make the grid hoverable and clickalbe and bind to plothover 
for everything else and to plotclick for iPhone/iPad/iPod.
