iPadOS issue fixes

[g2mediagroup]

Need to be able to select multiple objects on iPad like in Tinkercad and/or a round button to press/hold as well to do “shift key” actions. And how to do rotation of view? The cube is waaaaay too sensitive…ONE finger, TWO finger, THREE finger gestures to sort out quicker/EASIER navigations would be great!

@g2mediagroup, welcome, and thank you for writing from the iPad. Some of this exists already:

• Select several bodies: since 1.85.0 the long press menu has Select multiple (hold a finger still on a body or on empty space for half a second). Then each tap on a body adds it to the selection or takes it out again, until you tap empty space. Reload the page, or restart the installed app, to get it.
• Turning the view: one finger on empty space turns it; two fingers zoom (spread and pinch) and move it. If a finger that starts on a body should turn the view too, switch on Touch rotate in the camera bar.
• The view cube: dragging it turns the view like dragging with the right mouse button, and there is no setting for how fast yet. Do you mean the cube, or turning with a finger on the plate? And what would you want one, two and three fingers to do, as Tinkercad does it on the iPad?

@g2mediagroup, the guide has a new chapter for tablets in 1.86.0: Tablet and touch, with the gestures, selecting several bodies, the long press menu, the pen and what to know on the iPad. On a touch device the start page points to it once.

@g2mediagroup the hint that points to the tablet chapter did not show up on an iPad in 1.86.0, because Safari on an iPad answers the question "is this a touch screen?" differently from one iPadOS version to the next. 1.86.1 recognises an iPad and an iPhone by what they call themselves, and the card now also appears in the editor, once, after about 15 seconds, for when the installed app opens straight in a design. Reload the page to get it; the installed app needs a restart.
