Topic: [Bug] Double-tap+drag to zoom is not working on Chrome for Android

Posted under Site Bug Reports & Feature Requests

Bug overview description.
Chrome 109.0.5414.86, Android 10. E621's mobile mode support disabled. If you double-tap the screen and pull down on the second tap it would normally zoom in to show thumbnails better, but now this doesn't happen. The only way to zoom now is with the pinch gesture. This double tap+drag zoom gesture works fine on other webpages, but it no longer works anywhere on e6. Changing to desktop layout on the browser doesn't change anything. Works in Firefox 109.1.1.

What part(s) of the site page(s) are affected?
Every page.

What is the expected behavior?
Double tapping the screen, holding down with the second tap, and then dragging downwards should cause the page to zoom in. This makes one-handed navigation simpler than using pinch to zoom.

What actual behavior is given instead?
Double-tapping on an element still works to zoom into it specifically, but when the press is held and dragged there is no zooming-in.

Time of incident (if applicable).
It's been happening for at least the last two days. Only had issues after the migration, i think.

Can you reproduce the bug every time?
Yes, closing Chrome completely and reopening the page doesn't change anything.

What steps did you take to replicate this bug?
The double tap+drag gesture normally works on every page with the site's mobile mode support disabled.

Errors or other messages returned (if any).
None

Can you please confirm this is e6 specific? I can't get this to work on any page with chrome.

I can confirm it does not work with opera on mobile either. Furaffinity, inkbunny and every other website I can use the double tap+drag but not on e6.

I too have this problem. It works on every other site i normally use but hasn't worked on e6 for around 2 days. Firefox works as intended.

I can also confirm that it works on every other page just fine. It even works fine on my old e621 tabs that I did not refresh (before the last migration).

As previously mentioned, it works fine on inkbunny and furaffinity's desktop view. I'm not sure if it functioned on e6's mobile mode support seeing as it doesn't on furaffinity's mobile view as well. Maybe someone else can weigh in if they're missing it.

Edit: to add, works as intended on Gelbooru's desktop mode but not mobile mode.

Ah, sounds like the feature that lets you disable that in some browsers?
I'll have to look up the name... one second.

:Edit: Right, something like this.

Has anyone checked if it has that in the mobile version's code?

A dependency I added does something like this. I have since removed it and the gesture will work again in the next update.
