Touch support

From v7.0, the DHTMLX Suite library includes built-in touch support, so interacting with DHTMLX-based apps on touch devices is more comfortable and predictable.

info

Check the example in the Snippet Tool to try out the functionality on your touch devices.

On a touch screen, a tap works like a mouse click. Click events, which fire when you click or double-click an item, keep working on touch-screen devices. Note that mouseover events do not trigger.

Touch support works for all DHTMLX widgets and recognizes the following gestures:

  • Double Tap — to edit items
  • Press and Hold — to call the context menu
  • Drag — to resize and reorder items, and to change the value in Slider, ColorPicker, or TimePicker
