viewer: please add touch screen controls. It's a mess...

Hi,

I am looking for a way to adjust the behaviour for the viewer on a windows tablet. Control by FINGERS.
So far I use a horizontal setup with two pages. Let's say page 1 and page two.
If I swipe left, the behavioir is like expected, page 3 and 4 for are shown. BUT of I only TAP on the right page (2), page 2 swipes over to the left and page 3 shows up on the right. So only half of the job is done, and I would always had to tap twice to accomplish the same as with a "swipe to the left".
A bug I assume.
Also I prefer to tap on the left page to go forward. Instead the default behaviour is to go backwards. Nothing to change that either...

Next thing, if I hold the finger on some word I would assume a selection and some markers to extend or shrink the selection. BUT instead you can only select one word max, if you are LUCKY. If happens that you move your finger just a tiny bit during you hold and try to select a word you have scrolled like 80 pages back or forward.
You HAVE TO use a mouse to select things.

The symbols for closing or enlarging) the windows (inspector, table of content, etc) are like almost two pixels x two pixels. Unusable for fingers.

In short: Although a good reader, for tablet users it is not a pleasure.
I wish there were some settings dialog to adjust those things.


OR is there a possibility. If not I'd really recommend putting them up in priority todo.

Many thanks.
