How can I differentiate a touch that should scroll the native android scroller as opposed to selecting an object within that native android scroller?

mouseUp tends to select objects within the native scroller inadvertently

mouseDoubleUp is tough because of how accurate you have to be on mobile to hit the same location, leaving the user smashing the phone several times before it registers.

I am thinking some sort of script that would recognize the user holding their touch down on an object so that say if the user holds their touch on the object for .5 seconds, only then it will select the object. Anyone have any success at this?

All Android scrollers work like that. The initial touch hilites the line but the selection disappears as scrolling begins. IOS has properties to control that but Android doesn't use them.

Thanks- good to know.
