Extend touchpad magnify and rotate gestures support to Web #2963

Hey all,

I recently ran into an issue where I wanted to add two-finger pinch/zoom to a webassembly-compiled Bevy app I was building.

However it looks like magnify and rotate gesture recognition is currently limited to MacOS (#2157).

I'm not too familiar with Winit's internals, but I'd be interested in adding a webassembly implementation to support these gesture events if possible.

Hm, I'm not sure we should, it's not supported but we could polyfill it of course. See the MDN documentation on how to polyfill this.

Safari has actually a dedicated API (MDN) for it, which we could definitely implement.

@kchibisov do we intend to polyfill this for other targets too if they don't have official support for it? I saw in #2157 that Wayland and Windows support it, does X11 support it?

kchibisov commented 1 year ago

I think X11 should also support this, it's all coming from the libinput.

Alright, let's just go ahead with this then.

@megaboy101 PR's are welcome, I'm happy to review one. Feel free to ping if you need any guidance!
