the pressure of the fingertips

Post by fre » Tue Feb 08, 2011 11:32 am

hallo,

i programmed an application for the iphone and tested it on a G3.

i have made a curious observation. my on mouseup function only works if my fingertip has a definite pressure. when the pressure is low, the on mouseup function is not working. i have tested other iphone apps and there i can not notice that behaviour.

does anybody watched that before ? can i manipulate that ?

best
fred.

Hi Fred:

I wrote a calculator app and noticed that many of my "touches" were failing just as you described. What I did is instead of using mouseUp messages, I changed them to mouseDown and my app became very "esponsive".

You might want to give that a try.

Cheers
