Gesture and webviewer

MIT App Inventor Help

Hi all,
I have my app that uses webviewer.
Is there a way to navigate inside webviewer pages by using my mobile gesture?

Well, I do not know, but afaik, it's not possible due to the fact that you can't place another component over another, the WebViewer in you example. If this was possible, you could use a canvas for detecting the swiping. But, I do not think it's impossible. There may be a way...

You should be able to scroll up and down, left and right, if the web page is big enough, with one finger, and you can zoom with a two finger pinch/unpinch

Yes, but @marco75sa’s problem is that he wants to use these blocks for the gesture left/right:

component_method (1) component_method

Yeah, quite the exact thing @marco75sa wants to avoid :crazy_face: Well, if you say it's not possible (am I right), then @marco75sa should think of another way...

Yes but it will not be overlapping the WebViewer, which means you have then a jerk transparent space. :unamused:

a few years ago I played around with this
