touchmove prevent default/signature capture doesnt work on a windows tablet

Question

i have a windows tablet here and am working on signature capture for a web app.

on an ipad and droid you can use

$("body").on('touchmove', function (event) {
    event.preventDefault();
});

to lock the page in place as you sign. this isnt working on the windows tablet. any ideas?

*just found out that it works in many scenarios by pressing F11 for full screen. it would still be nice to have a non full screen solution.

Answer 1

Internet Explorer does not implement the proprietary Apple touch events. You will need to bind to MSPointerMove as well.

See Touch Input for IE10 and Metro style Apps for further information as well as examples.
