Touch Screen Phones?

[Atom]

I have been thinking about buying a touch screen phone but don't have one at the moment. Does MMF support these and if yes how is the movement done for it?

Also a off topic question - Will there be extensions made for certain versions of MMF only like Java/flash that is better suited for those only? So i guess stuff relating to java code for example or loading stuff like the processing langauge etc.

I am pretty sure they are supported, using the mouse events.
There will be extensions for Java/Flash only indeed - Francois already announced a Java Mobile object that can check special mobile keys not available on all phones.

The touches on the screen is handled by the mouse. XMouse YMouse report the last touched place.
For the moment, multiple touches are not handled.

Touch controls work quite nicely in MMF2 Java, have tested them a lot in S60 5th edition phones. The only drawback at the moment is a nasty bug in XMouse/YMouse expressions, but according to Francois, that should be fixed in the next build of MMF2.

Nice, thanks for the info everyone

Any info on how we'd go about implementing multitouch capabilities?

"user clicks on an object"
and
"repeat while mouse button is pressed"

work too, right?
