The "pinch to change" is kinda bad, since.. mice. But the drawing itself is interesting, the constraints makes it a very enjoyable experience, but do try not to assume people are using a touch screen,.
Thanks, yes at first I was thinking of making it working on touch devices only. However, I'm a bit confused about your 'pinch to change' comment. If you want to zoom in/out you will have to use CTRL + [-/+]. Do you mind explaining a bit more? I feel like Im missing something here. Thx
Yes, it's the text on the bottom of the canvas when creating a new one, it says " Pinch to change dimensions" which is a bit confusing to someone using a mouse, and as far as I can tell, "zooming" with mwheel and control or +/- does something else (it zooms the page, which is not the same as "changing dimensions".
That said, I had a lot of fun with this, bookmarked :)
Oh yes right, this is very silly I know. It's only because changing the dimension values on touch screen is awful (need to focus on the input field then then tap the number). While on desktop, you can scroll on the input field to change it's value, which is more convenient.
Sadly, I made the "Pinch to change dimension" only on touch screen because it handle the pinch direction, so it can update x/y independently or together. While on desktop, the scroll would scale x/y together only.
Hm, if I know the dimensions I want, then I find typing in the actual numbers far easier/more comfortable than the pinch gesture, as the latter is inaccurate and kind of uncooperative. I don't find typing on mobile “awful” at all.
