Yeah, nothing special we can/should do "downstream". The drag distance Vesa mentioned is only for drag'n'drop operations, won't help in the flickable use case.
There are however patches attached to the related QTBUG https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-35608 which would allow the QPA plugin to change the startFlick distance. ** No longer affects: unity8 ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Opinion ** Also affects: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: qtdeclarative-opensource-src (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: qtubuntu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1267580 Title: [gestures] swipe is too sensitive, makes long-press difficult Status in Ubuntu UX bugs: Fix Committed Status in “qtbase-opensource-src” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “qtdeclarative-opensource-src” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “qtubuntu” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “ubuntu-ui-toolkit” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: Activating the long-press event on the Dash is often difficult, because the slightest amount of movement will turn it into a swipe event. Especially when operating the device one-handed, it's very hard to keep your thumb still enough to activate the long-press. Can we allow some about of "wiggle room" so that a swipe isn't a swipe unless it's moved some reasonable distance?
