Slider reacting to wrong gesture on touch devices

[nealoke]

First of all thank you for this over the moon great component 🔥

My issue is relevant on touch screens and I'm not sure if it is a problem of the component itself but I would love some suggestions / fixes for this issue.

My slider is horizontal and I have a few rendered below each other. When trying to navigate up and down the page and accedently touching a slider it also moves and thus blocks my navigation.

The ideal solution I can think of is a prop that could turn off this behaviour like interactHorizontal and interactVertical.

Example of the issue

Yep, right now we do not lock gesture direction.

PR is welcome.

@paranoidjk is this possible at all? :) Just wondering how I could help, but honestly I would have no idea on how to to such a thing 😨

@nealoke calculate gesture move direction in touchmove, eg: https://github.com/react-component/gesture/blob/master/src/index.tsx#L341

So it is already available in this component? or am I missing something? :)

Any progress on this issue?

@DieterHolvoet I did not fix this as I am lacking time :(

[DieterHolvoet]

Chances are I'll get some time at work to fix this issue during the coming week, I'll keep you posted.

Hello everyone!

The issue with the slider and touch screen seem to still exist. Are there any updates on the solution? Is there a workaround for it?
