GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 733436
Annotations unusable from a touchscreen
Last modified: 2018-05-22 12:24:53 UTC
Testing from an unstable environment is quite difficult, but I think that the annotations are not usable from a touchscreen: the “main” popover here pops immediatly, the “annotations’” one should pop on a long press.
Besides this issue, does Sudoku otherwise work well on a touchscreen? In particular, are the buttons in the number pad big enough to press accurately? Would you be willing to check the other 15 games for touchscreen issues and file bugs for them as well? We don't have touchscreens ourselves and probably won't get one of the Foundation's touchscreen laptops to test with until late this year or early next.
By the way, the class we need to use to fix this is [1] [1] https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/unstable/GtkGestureLongPress.html
I don't see the annotations feature on a recent sudoku, but generally sudoku works fine, it works well even for my huge fingers on a normal-sized sudoku window on a 15-inch screen. Is annotations still a thing, or this can be marked as obsolete?

If you're holding Ctrl when you open the popover, then the numbers you select in the popover will become annotations. Also works by holding Ctrl and typing numbers. But if all you have is a touchscreen... I guess Ctrl plus typing might work, but I don't doubt there's no way to do it with presses.
