[New Feature]API for Classic trackpad and Passport touch Keyboard

[MerrickZ]

Please provide the API support for listening the trackpad events in BlackBery Classic and the touch keyboard events in BlackBerry Passport.

Thanks.

Touch keyboard events are already there as part of WebWorks.

[MerrickZ]

is there any sample ?
when 2048 is running on BlackBerry Classic, trackpad doesn't move tiles.

The touch keyboard of the Passport can be trapped using the following API

I haven't seen an update for Classic spacial navigation yet in WebWorks.

Not long now for the Classic APIs. ;)

Tim, should a bbui app scroll properly when the user scrolls on the touch sensitive keyboard of a Passport? Is there a minimum bbui version? Or does the developer have to handle?

[tneil]

A screen is just a div with overflow.. I don't know if the browser team scrolls that content or not or only tries to scroll the document.

If the browser team only scrolled the document, then yes someone would have to trap the scroll and scroll the bbUI screen manually

Would anyone build some plugin to capture the trackpad events? Thank you guys :)
