Enabling the apple-mobile-web-app-capable feature prevents SVG touches from registering

Looking to enhance touch functionality on an SVG element.

The touch event detection is done using a jQuery-like selector. (Currently utilizing angular JQLite - angular.element()):

.on("mousedown touch", function(event) {

No problems with recognition of touches on desktop and mobile Safari. It works fine even when saved as a bookmark, but including:

<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes" />

in the header, saving it to the home screen.. causes the touch component to malfunction.

Seeking insights into the root cause of this issue or any potential workarounds. Currently running Angular 1.2.27 on iOS 8.

Answer №1

To resolve the problem, I found a workaround by integrating an ng-click directly into the SVG element.

It seems that this issue may be related to Angular's JQLite handling of click/mousedown/touchstart events, or it could be due to a lack of support for certain touch events in ng-click.

Answer №2

Include these lines in your CSS file.

svg {
    pointer-events: none;
}

With this addition, it should now be functional.
