#3 Swipe for forward/back when reviewing

[Alex Kelly]

I see that it has been years since there have been any updates, so I realize this may be a shot in the dark :)
When viewing an SGF file on a touch screen device (storm2 in my particular case), you have to bring up the soft keyboard (which then covers half the board) to hit the "4" and "6" to go forward and backward. It would be nice if you could swipe left to go backwards, and right to go forward.

Since you have added touch areas at the bottom left and right to handle the menus, instead of doing a swipe, you could do touch points at the top left and right to go backward and forward. Either would work.

Hi Alex,

Interesting. I don't actually remember adding touch areas for the menus. :) I checked the sources to refresh my memory - TinyGo implements hooks only for scrolling, moving cursor and placing stones. So I think the menu areas you have are provided by the device.

The feature actually looks useful. I am thinking of more generic solution. I would add 8 areas on sides and corners and make them configurable through "Options" menu.
1 2 3
4 # 5
6 7 8

The actions would be:
* 4 - backward, 5 - forward
* 6 and 8 for the menus
* 2 - prev variant, 7 - next variant

Please let me know if you have ideas for other useful actions.

Yes, having configurable hotspots would be even better. The actions you mentioned are the same I can think of off-hand that would be the most useful.
