Simple gesture support for touch screens

In my opinion, if LO were to change to this non-typing, finger
method, it would lose much of what makes it superior to others.

       Besides the fact that when the fingers get cold, the touch does not
seem to connect with whatever on those screens, and when they get too warm,
oily residue is left on the screen, those smaller keyboards are next to
impossible to click on without hitting more than one key or missing a
connection entirely.

       Yes, there does exist those styluses which supposedly work - these
too are affected by temperature changes;
          and for some reason, each one I've purchased has been stolen -
why, I haven't a clue; left the mini-computer & took this stylus both times.

a couple of other points. This is the users mailing list the primary function is to help users solve problems. However it is a good starting off point for discussion. To actually get devs interested you could try:

http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice

A feature request can be entered in the bugzilla:

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/

Again, primarily a resource for reporting bugs but all kinds of changes are considered.

Cheers
