Out of curiosity, why would you need that ?

Hi,

in the backgammon on computer, tips are displayed on mouseover.
It is not possible on mobile.
I'd like to add a specific mobile action for tips.
May be gesture.tap.hold or something like that.

should I use instead a onmousedown and a setInterval ?

all the best

If you tap and and hold for a second or so, the tooltip should be displayed on mobile devices.

I've tried

dojo.query('.token').connect('dojox.gesture.tap.hold', this, 'hlodTap');

but it doenst work (even with tap, it is not detected by my mobile :s )

It's too bugy.
On my current game, I've developped a "help/safe mode" to overcome this issue.
Basically you have a switch somewhere near top of screen to toggle this mode on/off, and once you are in this mode :
- all clicks related to an action are disabled , so no misclicks possible while trying to display the tooltip
- "tooltipable" elements get an "?" icon added on top left (and an "?" cursor)
- clicking on such an element now display the corresponding tooltip
- clicking again on it or anywhere else remove the tooltip.
I can share some parts of the code if you are interested.
