    [OPEN] [#933] [3.2.1] Drag/Drop Issues DropTarget and touchscreen

    I opened a new thread as this is a super critical defect for us and it slightly different than all the other ones i opened on drag/drop. Took us a long time to figure out the problem.

    Issue: On a touch enabled laptop, drag and drop is broken in our grids. In a non-touch enabled laptop, it works fine.

    Cause: the problem is that the touch enabled laptops dont register the mouse click/press event to initiate the drag. it only works on LongPress. Problem is that 99% of our users have a 24 inch monitor hooked to their laptop and dont even use the touchscreen. But by having a touchscreen, it causes the drag to require a LongPress.

    Resolution: it should work on Click OR LongPress if the screen is touch enabled. It should not be either or.

    The example below highlights the bug easily. i tested (code below) on the client machine and it works only with LongPress. I tested it in Chrome (and set device to laptop with touch) and it was able to replicate the problem also.

    Customer also opened his laptop and tested on his real touch screen and the longpress worked fine.

    Thanks

    Hi @Z,

    Thank you for the report and the investigation!

    Please try this override:
    Ext.view.DragZone.override({
        init: function (id, sGroup, config) {
            var me = this,
                //triggerEvent = Ext.supports.touchScroll ? 'itemlongpress' : 'itemmousedown',
                triggerEvent = "itemmousedown",
                eventSpec = {
                    scope: me
                };
    
            eventSpec[triggerEvent] = me.onItemMouseDown;
            me.initTarget(id, sGroup, config);
            me.view.mon(me.view, eventSpec);
        }
    });

    much better. let me get this deployed for the customers to verify.
    Thanks!

    customer verified that this fix is good and is working well.

    please flag as bug and commit to SVN

    Created an Issue.
    https://github.com/extnet/Ext.NET/issues/933

    As for the fix, it was a fix for your scenario. But in general, the itemlongpress should not be ignored - otherwise it is not going to work for touch drag&drop.

    At the moment I don't see a good way to distinguish the cases automatically and use itemmousedown/itemlongpress accordingly.

    Please note that while this fix is good.... It causes a problem if you try to scroll.

    Load 500 records.... Then load in ipad. Try to scroll but it thinks u want to drag/drop.

    If (touch only) then longpress
    Else click

    Key is touch monitor with mouse should click. Ipad should be long press.

    Thoughts?

    Yes, it is exactly the problem I was talking about.

    Probably, this override is better in your scenarios:
    Ext.view.DragZone.override({
        init: function (id, sGroup, config) {
            var me = this,
                triggerEvent = (Ext.supports.touchScroll && !Ext.isWindows) ? 'itemlongpress' : 'itemmousedown',
                eventSpec = {
                    scope: me
                };
    
            eventSpec[triggerEvent] = me.onItemMouseDown;
            me.initTarget(id, sGroup, config);
            me.view.mon(me.view, eventSpec);
        }
    });

    Yikes!
    What about my chrome and FF users? How about Ext.isDesktop?

    Also, with viewport.autoscroll to false, on Android, the zoom in/out doesn't work consistently.

    Also can not do find docs for Ext.supports

    What about my chrome and FF users?
    Please clarify does something not work for them properly?

    How about Ext.isDesktop?
    Yes, that is a nice idea. There is no Ext.isDestop, but there is Ext.os.deviceType.
    http://docs.sencha.com/extjs/5.1/5.1...rty-deviceType

    Also, with viewport.autoscroll to false, on Android, the zoom in/out doesn't work consistently.
    Please clarify is that related to the drag&drop fix? If it doesn't, it is better to discuss it in an individual thread.

    Also can not do find docs for Ext.supports
    Please follow this link:

    Hello @Z!

    Did you change your original code on this thread to work on touch devices, or is it still the code that you needed the fix (like Daniil's provided override) to make it work?

    I just tested your example on to-be-released Ext.NET 4.1.0 and the example worked:
    - on an android device with Chrome for Android 48
    - on a desktop with google chrome 49 in touch emulation in both 'mobile' and 'desktop with touch' user agent emulation modes!

    If your code above should not trigger "trigger" events due to the drag-drop limitation, I suppose this issue has been fixed!
