Is Touchpad-Two Finger scrolls-pinch zoom supported? - Remix OS for PC

I succesfully installed remix os on my surface pro 3. Everything seems to be working fine except for the fact that I don't have two finger scroll or pinch zoom on my mousepad/touchpad. Is this just not supported yet in the OS?

You can enable pinch in and pinch out on Settings>Experimental features (you have to press Ctrl+Alt+Touchpad swipe). Two fingers in the same direction is not supported, I think.

Yes I'm having the same issue. The touchpad works as a mouse but no scrolling or zoom (gestures). I've enabled the "experimental" switches in the settings but that did not help.
Thanks.

So...mouse cursor is just not doable?

I did a search and found several posts about mouse functionality...basically jumping from screen clickable element to element...but no cursor.
Has anyone got an actual cursor to show up on the screen?
Is it even possible?
ubuntu?
I'm running vegaN 5.1 and I get cross-hairs when I use my mouse (imho, its better than a regular pointer). Seems to work fine for me...

I also get a cross hair on VeganTab with my USB mouse. If I remember right, I don't think I got one with my bluetooth mouse.
I get a crosshair too running VEGAn 5.1.1

Off topic question: How are there 4 rows in Pulse in that video? My pulse has 3, with it set to small tile/text size
I get crosshairs, but clicking doesn't do anything, and the mouse is 90 degrees off ( left goes up, up goes right, etc.) Anyone got a fix??

The older version of Pulse (I think one version back - do a search in the applications/themes section) allowed for more rows per screen. The current version only allows the 3 you mention. I'm sure you can dig up an apk of the older version if you prefer it.

Reformat text when double-click in browser?

On my old Dell Streak, and my Asus Transformer, I can zoom in on text until it was a comfortable size and double click it. This word wraps the text to the size of the screen.
I can't seem to do this on my beautiful new SGS2 The menu option "Auto fit pages" doesn't appear to work this way (although it is better than nothing)
Is there a way?
If u do search you'll definitely find answer in forum. I use Dolphin HD browser which does it with no probs.

I use Dolphin and it doesn't do it. Neither on any other application. So what's the solution?
On my old HTC it worked on anything I did it on.
I don't think that there's a solution for this (at least in the stock browser that I use), though I'm fine with the 'Auto-fit pages' option on.
What you're asking for is exactly what "Auto-fit pages" is for, and it works perfectly for me. I can only guess that something is different between our devices (branding changes, different FW versions etc..)
Despite being overkill for such a small issue, is trying a different ROM out of the question?
Solved it by enabling Pinch-zoom button. That is the -/+ that shows up in the bottom right of the browser when you touch the screen.
Strangely you have to use this and zooming with your fingers won't work as stated by this thread.

Pinch-to-zoom doesn't do it, but double tapping to zoom in/out does.
Double tapping won't get the zoom you require it will zoom to fit the screen.
Try enabling Pinch in Dolphin browser. It works and is already enabled in stock browser.

Not true. It zooms to suit the "Default zoom" setting.
The first attachment is normal viewing, and the second is after I double-clicked the top left of the article. As you can see, the text is reformatted to fit the screen (not the other way round), and it is more than large enough to read. This is with default zoom set to medium.
I know this is an old thread, but I found it by searching for a solution for this problem as I now have a Note with the same issue, on ICS.
I think it's Samsung’s fault. It worked perfectly on my Galaxy nexus.
however, the good news is that there is a solution.
Download ICS browser+ from Google Play. Its great.

You have to double click twice... First double click = zoom, second double click is text refllow.
After the second double click you can pinch and zoom to any desired level and the text will reflow accordingly :good:

Tried it but it won;t work. I did the automatically text reflow too option too and when I zoom in just past the screen it automatically zooms out.
Even if I do a double tap it automatically zooms out.
Maybe it's my firmware. I'm on stock "I9100XWLPD". Could you or anyone else that got this working let me know which "exact" stock firmware you have so I can give that a try?...
^ Tried 3 other Stock ROMS this morning and no dice with this working on ICS Browser+.
Which exact Stock ROM versions are you guys getting this to work on?...

Quill

The dev of the app quill resized it correctly for flyer. Pressure sensitivity works great and so does palm rejection. Just thought I'd give the heads up

The pen detection for HTC devices is included in version 6.2 and higher. You can get it on the Android Market or download the apk for free from Google Code
Thanks for your help in debugging/testing!

Is there a preferred way to get in touch with you for more testing?
I currently have both the Flyer and Jetstream. Pen input works on both with pressure sensitivity.
I can't seem to get zooming to work at all.
I have a number of suggestions as well. I had actually been thinking about forking your code to make adjustments

Press the 4-diagonal-arrows icon. Then you can pinch-to-zoom, at least it *should* work ;-)
I do check up on XDA threads; or PM me if you want...

Hi! This method works well. But when I double tap, it zooms just a tiny bit. About 5% is my guess.

Double tap switches between fill screen width and fit everything on screen. If your virtual paper is almost the same as the screen, then the change can be very small. Try e.g. A4 paper and rotate the tablet into landscape, then you'll see a huge change.

Got it. This app is perfect. Just one suggestion- Please enable pinch to zoom in quill/pencil modes so that we can zoom in to write with 2 fingers and drag with one finger. This allows writing to be more neat. at the moment I have to switch between quill and drag mode to and fro.
:: I have also noticed, while the htc note app recognises only 2 pressure levels, quill registers at least 4 different pressure levels.
I applaud the developer for getting the pen response implemented very well. I guess I was expecting more features with all the excitement, but it does what it says well. Not a replacement for the HTC notes app, but a nice little handwritten sticky note app.

Your palm will often trigger single-finger touch events, so we can't use those in the fountain pen / pencil mode.
Its intentional that the 2-finger move gesture while writing doesn't change the zoom - otherwise it is hard to fill a whole page with evenly sized handwriting.

I understand but please give thoughts on enabling an option to enable 2 finger pan and zoom.

Great app, would he nice to have the eraser button work on the pen but other than that this is awsome
Just wanted to say that quill is a great app.
Is this working with the View. The market says not compatible and when I try to install the apk I get a Parse Error.
i think it works on HC version, isn't?

I got the same error with the stock gingerbread, you need HC. I still prefer the stock Notes app. Syncing to evernote is brilliant.
Pen input mode?
There are 3 pen input options in v8.1, I tried all 3 but could only get my scribe stylus writing to appear when the "any touch event writes on screen, no gestures" mode is active. This is not so handy because I lose out on the gestures. Anyone get their scribe to work in the other modes? Seems like it should recognize the scribe in all modes!
I'm on wifi-only Flyer with latest HC release.

Maybe a difference with the software or hardware...are you on View or Wifi Flyer? HTC pushed Honeycomb update or did you install a custom/Globatron ROM?

How I get this game map to zoom out?

I tried with Assistive Zoom app from Google Play Store. Doesn't work at all.
Also tried Two finger pinch. Not working. From the Experimental features option.
I don't know what else to try out.
Try double left click to zoom in and right click or esc to zoom out.
Another option is to double click left but hold on second click and move mouse front/rear while holding.
Didn't work.
It funny I can hold Ctrl+Alt+Right Click and then use the wheel to zoom in or out on the browser. But won't work in the game map. Gotta be a bug to where it doesn't work in the games.
This isn't the game issue because I can zoom in and out on the Android Phone/iPad Pro Tablet without a problem.

The guy talked about apps checking the multitouch functionality also if u were to use developer menu in phone it would display 3 fingers therefore this quick setting disables multitouch above 3 points (the debug menu option to show presses displays always all the presses)

I have no idea what you are talking. I confirm that the one plus 5 is supporting multi touches without any issues. If a certain app doesn't detect more than 3, then it is app specific issue.

Im saying that if u enable 3 finger to screenshot functionality some apps and even the debug menu of oneplus 5 has issues with recognizing more than 3 touches, you don't use the tester apps on google play store that check the multi touch capability in software what you see when you enable the dots on press in developer menu is a lower level implementation of displaying this thing maybe the screen driver handles it itself.
