Two Fingers Move and Zoom

Hi,

Thank you for the new Planearium! (I have a bone disease, which impedes me to pronounce the T in plane-arium).

I like that there are planets now, I was really missing this feature, I have to constantly jumping between telescopius, stellarium theskylive etc…

I wanted to report a bug, but somehow that field is not showing up anymore.

So here is the problem(on last android, Honor Magic 7 Pro):

As I movin my two fingers to move around the sky, I can accidentally raise or lower the distance between them, and thia triggers zoom function. Now the problem is, at that point, no matter how hard I try, it can only Zoom, but can not move. If I lift my fingers and start with zoom, the results is the same.

The info window about the two-fingers navigation has also disturbingly long delay.

I hope I could help with these Infos.

Have a nice day!

Gabor

Hi Gabor,

Welcome and thank you for your feedback!

The two finger drag causing a zoom is something I bumped into and increased the threshold to try and fix it. Clearly I could do better.

Regarding the two-finger navigation delay, I’ve noticed this too. I’ve just slashed it to half. Bear in mind the two-finger navigation is only needed when the planetarium is embedded on another page. In full screen mode you can pan around using only one finger.

Both issues are addressed in version 5.15.7. Let me know how it goes!

You do help with your feedback, I appreciate it!

Hi,

Thank you for the quick response and fix!
I wasn’t aware, that that this is not happening in fullscreen, now is clear, thanks again!

Now I open and write an another report :smiley:
