Not quite what I meant - as in, for scrolling frames and such. I’m assuming the new PointerAction system would make this possible in future without breaking compatibility with some older games?

Yay! Going to update my SmoothScroll module to support this when I have a chance.
Thank you for giving us more control over user input!
EDIT:
Added trackpad support and actually fixed other issues. SmoothScroll is finally complete!

If they do add that, then mouse users will be the only ones left with choppy ScrollingFrames.
I hope they eventually add it for everyone, making my module obsolete!

Correct me if I’m wrong, wasn’t the two fingers to move the camera position around released a long time ago? I normally use a trackpad and that’s how I’ve been doing it. It doesn’t work on Windows, but it’s been like that for a while on Macbook.

Yeah, I wrote a module for it. It has minor downsides, read the thread for details!

Great update, this would allow developers to create new UI functionality (e.g. panning and zooming on a map). Does the future Windows support require precision touchpad compatible drivers? (first seen in Windows 8 I think)

Thank you for saving us with this update! Now we won’t have to worry about right button then move the trackpad, wayback in the days. Thank you Roblox!

Mac trackpads seem to be designed for gestures and likely connected via the old mouse events!

Makes sense, now windows users can join in on the fun

To clarify, on Mac you previously had to push 2 fingers down in the right corner to activate a “right mouse button hold”, which isn’t great and was difficult to do for longer periods of time. Now you won’t have to push down on the trackpad, you can just glide 2 fingers together across the trackpad, and you will be able to switch quickly between 1 finger (cursor) and 2 fingers (camera). Also, we didn’t previously support pinch in/out to zoom.

The only thing new I saw here was 2 fingers for camera look around. I’ve been using the trackpad since 2016 and i’ve always used pinch to zoom in/ zoom out

same here on my old windows laptops, in addition to being able to move the camera by tapping and dragging with two fingers, but this is an official implementation of those features. some laptops map these gestures to the physical mouse alternative; e.g. pinching as opposed to scrolling with the wheel, two-finger tap as opposed to right click

Finally! This is going to make the Roblox laptop experience so much better.
