Not responsive to touch screen?

[Stephan-P]

What's wrong, and with what software version?

Operating System: Windows 10
CEmu version: CEmu 1.1dev (git: d0fd69f)
Describe your issue:
Using CEmu as a TI-84 emulator only, I find that it is not very responsive to touch screen.
Key presses on the touch screen (or Smartboard) are barely registered.
Possibly related: Skin scaling is set to 70%

What are the steps to reproduce this issue?

1. Setup CEmu with just the Display and the Keyboard, all other docks and windows disabled, Menu and status bar disabled.
2. On my particular laptop I had to set the scaling to 70% for best fit in the screen canvas
3. Try to control the TI-84 through the touch screen

Any logs, error output, screenshot, other comments...?

Could you test using the touchscreen with the latest development build? If possible, also test if touching multiple keys at once works.

That's better, but there are still problems:

• Touching a key and then dragging off of the key doesn't release the key (until the touch is eventually lifted, wherever that may be).
• Windows' default touch and hold to right-click behavior should be suppressed. It's too easy to accidentally activate CEmu's key hold.
• Multi-touch is to be foiled by another default right-click trigger.

Another suggestion, if possible: expand the hit-boxes for keys when using touch slightly beyond what is displayed. For the rectangular keys, I'd suggest adding roughly 15-20% of their width to every side (including top and bottom). Might get a bit weirder for the arrow keys.

We just need to be sure we can still activate key holds using touch in some way.

Also, I realized we need a way for CEmu to have a GUI option to disable the keyboard interfacing in case someone uses an on-screen keyboard.

@Stephan-P any news?
We're aiming for a release sometime soon - any feedback (you can try the latest development builds) would be helpful!

[Stephan-P]

Yes of late, I've been a quiet, yet daily user. I'll install the latest development build today and test out how it works on touch screen and smart board. I've got some time for that. Further, I hope that these 1-2 pixels offset in the positioning of the keypad Dock have been fixed. I'll get back to you before tonight. Stephan

Note that you'd need to try that one: http://jacobly.com/CEmu/master/latest/CEmu64.exe since the MSVC builds aren't working lately.

[Stephan-P]

Yeah, I noticed that the development builds got stuck on september.
So, I'll use Jacobly's now.

[Stephan-P]

Alright!
Jacobly's build works well on my touch screen as well as the Smart Board.
AFAIC this issue can be closed. NICE!
