Touchscreen support
« on: December 19, 2011, 06:54:25 am »

Hi,

I've recently bought a touch screen and setup a passive Win7 PC as a jukebox for my living room.

Unfortunately I found out that MC doesn't support that type of input properly. Touch scrolling is not implemented so I need to click the tiny scrollbars to scroll through my library. Attempting to touch scroll usually results in items being incorrectly drag & dropped. The same goes for the trees in the left panels and in most parts of the software where there are scrollbars.

I'd love to see better support for touchscreens in future versions of MC, would that be possible ?

Cheers,

  J.

Try a "flick".  "Grab" and "throw" the screen.

Use Theater View and the skin called "Obsidian touchscreen".

I assume you're using MC17.

Hi,

Thanks for the advice, the theater view works perfectly. The "playing now" screen with the pictures (which I assume come from flickr) in the background is great, I'll be using that tonight for New Year's eve !

Thanks again,
