Methods

enable

intel.xdk.multitouch.enable();

Description

The enable method tells the application to start listening for multiple touch events. Once this method is called, we take over the normal touch event interface.

This capability comes at a cost to device resources, so it should only be used if your app requires multitouch events. This command will be ignored on an iOS device.

Platforms

• Apple iOS
• Google Android

Example

// This app requires multitouch events,  so enable them.        
intel.xdk.multitouch.enable();
