Touch Events don't work on desktop touch monitors in Chrome

created 6 years ago (modified 6 years ago)

Starting with Chrome v71 the previous touch detection mechanism is disabled by default (see this post). As a result, scrolling stopped working in ScrollView, DataGrid, List, TabPanel and other widgets.

While we're researching if it's possible to integrate the new API in our code, you can return the previous behavior as follows:

  1. Open "chrome://flags" in the Chrome browser and find the "Touch Events API" item.
  2. Set Touch Events API to Automatic or Enabled (the default is now “Disabled”)
