"Samsung Galaxy Note" TouchEvent not supported?

[Anonymous]

I've been playing around with scaleform, and noticed that i was not able to achieve TouchEvents with scaleform mobile on my Samsung Galaxy Note. Unless there is something I overlooked, I believe that my Phablet(phone + tablet) should be able to support TouchEvents using Scaleform Mobile?

The following code returns "Not Supported". I should make mention that GestureEvents are supported on my phone.

package  {
 import flash.display.MovieClip
 import flash.events.Event;
 import flash.events.TouchEvent;
 import flash.ui.Multitouch;
 import flash.ui.MultitouchInputMode;

 public class DocumentMain extends MovieClip
 {

 public function DocumentMain():void 
 {
 if(Multitouch.supportsTouchEvents)
 _dText.text = "Supported";
 
 else 
 {
 _dText.text = "Not Supported";
 }
 }
 }
}

We definitely support touch events on Android devices. What version of Android are you using? Have you tried any other devices?

I have not tested this out with any other android devices yet. I'm using "Samsung Note SGH-I717M" Android version "4.04".

I will post back here if i get the chance to test this on another android device.

Sounds like you have the latest and greatest. Try using MouseEvents instead of TouchEvents. I need to do some research, and when I have a better answer for you, I'll be sure to let you know.

I can confirm that your code reports "Not Supported" on my end too, on a Samsung Galaxy.

Ok...I have found a solution for you. Add this line of code at the beginning of your constructor:

Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.TOUCH_POINT;

Here is a sample file for you to test with: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/39898937/MobileDev/touchsupport.zip

Can you confirm that multi-touch is supported? While im getting the "Supported" text I still can't get any sort of multitouch to work, only single touch points. Still haven't had the chance to test this on any other phone, but as soon as I get a hold of one i'll post the results.

I attached a small piece of code that I would assume should be a very basic example of multi-touch in action. I am able to only get one ball to appear, as apposed to one for each finger.

Yes multitouch does in fact work. I've tested it myself. You might also try MultiTouchInputMode.GESTURE which allows you to do pinch zoom, etc.

I'll try out your sample file and get back to you.
