xTouch and yTouch and Multiple Touch Object

[AndyH]

In the Windows runtime, the multiple touch XTouch and YTouch values do not seem to work correctly with the "A new touch has occured, number 0".

On an iOS device, reading the XTOUCH ( for touch 0 ) and YTOUCH values from the multiple touch object during this event returns the current X and Y position of where the touch first occured.

On the Windows runtime, the XTOUCH and YTOUCH return the last touch position and not where you are currently touching.

So for example, if you click the middle of the screen (eg: position 160), the "A new touch has occured..." fires but the XTouch value returned is -1 (same for YTouch). If I now click to the right of the screen, XTouch returns the last position of 160. The X and Y Touch values are always returning the last touch position upon this event in Windows.

As mentioned, this does not go wrong on the iOS device, it will always return the current X and Y touch positions, it's just the Windows runtime that fails.

Work-around in the mean time is to read XMouse and YMouse upon that event as it will return the correct (current) touch position on both Windows and iOS.
