This article describes modifying the device value, “TOUCH_SLOP” which enables changes in the touch sensitivity on Elo I-Series devices running Android OS
This value specifies the distance a touch can wander before the device determines the user is scrolling in dips.
The default TOUCH_SLOP value is 20 and can be adjusted up or down depending on your application. Increasing this value increases the distance a touch can still 'wander' and be considered by the system to still be intended as a touch and not as a swipe.
To modify this value, follow the steps below:
- Establish an ADB over IP connection with your device. (See the following article for steps on this: https://myelo.elotouch.com/support/s/article/Android-Using-the-Android-Debug-Bridge-ADB-Utility-for-Debugging-Over-Wi-Fi)
- Edit the attached XML file by specifying a TOUCH_SLOP value.
- In the provided XML, we have already configured at 100. Edit as needed.
- Once ADB is connected, push the attached XML file to the following path: adb push elo_cust.xml /eloconf/conf/
- Reboot device to apply new value(s).
- Repeat as necessary to find a solution suitable for your needs.
