6 TopicsIncorrect touch coordinates on the internal screen of Honor Magic V2
Problem description: On the Honor Magic V2 smartphone, when using the internal screen in an unfolded state, Microsoft Edge incorrectly registers touch input. The touch position is shifted by approximately 5 mm vertically, making the browser nearly unusable. Details: Edge works correctly on the external screen when the device is folded. All other applications (system apps and those from the Play Store) work without this issue, confirming that screen calibration is correct. The problem persists after reinstalling Edge and clearing the cache. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open Microsoft Edge on a Honor Magic V2. 2. Unfold the phone and use the internal screen. 3. Try tapping on elements in the browser. 4. Notice that the touch coordinates are vertically offset (up) by approximately 5 mm. Expected behavior: Touch input should be registered at the correct coordinates, as it works in other apps and on the external screen. Device and software details: Microsoft Edge version: 132.0.2957.129 Android version: 15 Device: Honor Magic V2 Additional information: The issue persists the standard, Beta and Canary versions of Edge.52Views1like0CommentsPoor performance specific actions
Hello, I wanted to start this discussion as I didn't saw threads about these issues. Sorted by importance First: Specificly on MS Edge no matter on which version there's a seriously noticeable window drag delay when dragging the window on a touch enabled device using your finger or a pen this issue is not present when using the mouse. Also not present on Firefox or other windows apps I don't use chrome as Edge is just top notch. I noticed that the GPU on edge does not get that much utilized compared to firefox when dragging also when the device is plugged in this issue gets weaker not gone but less noticeable might suggest that this is connected to Edges power saving measures? Second: Scaling PDFs especially when drawing got slower I know alot has been changed in order to have the best performance for pdfs but maybe there can be done more to prevent these lags. Third: Regarding vertical tabs the animation feels really choppy and downgrades the experience a tiny bit Hardware Specifications: Surface Book 2 i7-8650U Intel UHD 620 iGPU Nvidia geforce 1050 dGPU 16GB Ram Do others also experience similar issues?932Views0likes1CommentHas the Edge team forgotten that touch screens exist?
Chromium Edge is completely lacking in touchscreen support and I have seen no mentions of them planning to add any in. Legacy Edge was much better for touch screens. I find it odd, to say the least, that Edge now lacks touch support considering that Microsoft sells tablets. Among the issues: Touching and holding doesn't show the square that indicates a right-click. How long is long enough to trigger a right click? You'll just have to guess and hope. Touching and holding a button on the toolbar has the exact opposite problem. The square appears, but it doesn't disappear after you stop touching the screen. Inability to reorder favorites bar items with touch Inability to reorder extensions on the menu bar with touch You can't select text (with touch) without triggering a right click. It's also different from the rest of Windows, where a single tap selects text. Autofill items have a delete button, but only on hover. You can't easily use a touchscreen to press that button without knowing the location of that button beforehand. Collections lacks touch support (otherwise a great feature) Inability to drag text or images into collections Collections and collection items have a selection box, but only on hover. You can't easily use a touchscreen to press that box without knowing the location of that box beforehand. This is a much less important thing, but there's no rubber-banding effect when scrolling in Collections.5.5KViews11likes10CommentsSomething new popped up in Web Capture and PDF viewer | touch writing button
Edge Version 89.0.752.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) The button doesn't have a tooltip yet but what is does is basically enabling/disabling writing on the screen on touch-based displays. it has no effect if you are using mouse and keyboard, but when you use Edge with a touch screen display, you can only write on the web capture or PDF while that button is toggled, if it's off, you can't write/draw anything. as always, it might only be available to a few insiders.1.8KViews1like1CommentAre there plans to enable touch screen compatibility in the Windows version of Chromium Edge?
Are there plans to enable touch screen compatibility in the Windows version of Chromium Edge? Specifically: Fix press-and-hold right-click bugs Pressing and holding in page content doesn't currently trigger the square to indicate when a right-click has been activated Pressing and holding in the toolbar triggers the square to indicate a right-click, but it doesn't go away Ability to reorder toolbar items (favorites and extensions) with touch Ability to drag text (into a new tab, into text boxes, or into Collections) with touch Modify controls that appear only on hover (e.g. selection tool in Collections and delete button on autofill items) so that they appear all the time so they can be selected with touch (a workaround for the Collections issue to make a "select" button to show the select buttons) Fix text selection behavior to match that of the Windows system and other Windows apps (where tapping a word only once will select it, instead of the current behavior where you have to press and hold and it also shows the right-click menu) for consistency and improved user experience Classic Edge was great for touch screens, and it's a shame to see that there has been no improvement whatsoever in this area for Chromium Edge.1KViews0likes0CommentsNEW FEATURE: PDF INKING Improvements - More Colors and Thickness Slider
