+[8.50b14] W8.1 Touch, no context mnu for Folder Sync Dialog

[Max Born]

Hi, as usual, let me start by saying that Total Commander is the most useful piece of software that any Windows User can find out there. Great work. There are free alternatives, but still TC beat them on features and performance.

In this case, I’m writing because I’ve been trying to use TC on a Windows 8.1 touch-screen device, for a while, and it’s getting belter with every release, but still there are some issues.

As only one bug per post should be reported, in this post I only what to talk about, the context menu (right click) not being “reachable” by a long-press on the touch screen (as is the default for Windows 8/8.1) on the Synchronize Directories Menu (windows Form). At least on the form that runs in a separated thread.

For instance, after comparing two folders, I tried to “long-press” (right clic on the touch screen) on one of the listed files and nothing happened.
By the way, it would be really useful to have a “go” (enter) touchable-button close to the command line field to use on touch devices without having to go for the touch keyboard and press “Enter”, but I’ll create a new post for that feature request.

Thank again for TC and for listening.

Indeed this isn't currently supported - I had to add special case for the main window too, because it behaves strangely when using touch input. I will try to add this also to the sync tool.

This should be fixed in beta 15, please try it!

Anyone, please?

If there isn't any reply to this thread within the next 7 days, I will move it to fixed bugs.
