I have a very weird problem. In my cordova app on iOS I am getting a pop-up text-select magnifying glass when I long-press anywhere in the app.
Example:
The bubble at the top is locked to the top of the screen, and follow my x-position when moving my finger from side to side.
I have tried to add the following css which people say should fix my issue:
* {
-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0,0,0,0);
-webkit-touch-callout: none;
-webkit-user-select: none;
}
This does not help. Looking at things in the web-inspector, I can confirm that this css is successfully added to everything. I have tried a bunch of different variation of the normal touch-callout: none
and user-select: none
everyone suggest and nothing seem to help.
I have also tried to remove all javascript and all CSS except a simple variation of the above mentioned, and the magnifying glass still appears.
How can I get it to go away? Is there any plugin that can be causing this issue? Any help is much appreciated.
Cordova plugins:
Cordova version: 5.1.1 iPhone 5s with iOS version: 9.0.1
Thank you for that Automatico! Saved me from a lot more frustration.
Since then however it looks like that code has been merged into mainline cordova and can just be enabled by adding
<preference name="SuppressesLongPressGesture" value="true" />
to config.xml
That worked perfectly for me!
