Gesture |
Description |
---|---|
Tap |
The tap gesture is used to select or highlight an item, such as a riser, and show its tooltip (analogous to pausing the mouse over an object). |
Long touch |
Touching and holding an item, such as a riser, is used to trigger a drop-down menu on events that support it (analogous to a single mouse click). |
Short drag |
Can be used interchangeably with long drag for either scrolling (on charts with scroll bars or moving around on maps) or for marquee data selection. On charts that include both scrolling and marquee selections, a short drag will scroll and a long drag will do a marquee data selection. |
Long drag |
Can be used interchangeably with short drag for either scrolling (on charts with scroll bars or moving around on maps) or for marquee data selections. Note that if a chart supports only scrolling or only marquee selections, then a long drag does nothing. On charts that include both scrolling and marquee selections, a short drag will scroll and a long drag will do a marquee data selection. |
The following image shows a tooltip that appears when you tap on a riser (for example, the pie slice with the largest data value).
The following image shows the options available for a marquee data selection, also known as lassoing (for example, when a long drag is performed over the two pie slices with the largest data values).
