This should make you scratch your head

Did you know on a pixel 3a you can use your figerprint sensor to scroll in the web browser.

@trwidick I have moved the thread to specific category

This is to demonstrate this functionality of a built in mouse, may be useful to know on other devices, I did not change code or add anything to enable this.
Some one could write an app and make it in to a mouse.

@trwidick It doesn't work like a mouse, but more like arrow keys, as I understand. It requires a special type of fingerprint sensor, so it's not available on all devices. I am surprised it works in UT though.

@dobey or like a mouse wheel ?

@trwidick hmmm doesn't seem to work for me. Do I need to do anything special to enable?

trwidick

@rdl85 Nothing just pixel 3a, any website on the morph browser and rc 2021-w24

After fresh reinstall i cant get it to work- I must have done something. This is now my to priority to figure this out

rdl85

@trwidick interesting. Only difference is I am on stable. Hope you can get to the bottom of this.

trwidick

@rdl85 Been trying for hours. I cant get it to work anymore. Enabled all the settings I had. Went back to rc, going to try dev because i was bouncing back an fouth between then. Also was using UT tweeks... I stumped, maybe I have defective hardware. I wish i wouldnt have wiped my device, but was trying to solve calling issues.

@keneda From what I've read online it just sends up/down/left/right.

trwidick

@dobey That seams about right from what I experienced. Still trying to figure out how to activate. Moving to Dev Channel right now, going to see if i cant read what device it is.

trwidick

@rdl85 I found it again, still dont know what caused it. Seams to be the morph browser its self. I have reset my phone 7 times but i got it. Video coming soon of bugs and features. Can anyone tell me the log path to upload of this.

Remember me of the nice Blackberry cursor.
Really neat

@trwidick sorry I don't think I can be of much help here. Maybe see if you can find the porter/maintainer's forum handle and bring him into the conversation. This is the person listed on the device page as the port's developer: https://forums.ubports.com/user/fredldotme

@rdl85
It's Alfred @fredldotme on this forum and he is already aware of this issue.
He said yesterday that he will start investigating this topic this week.

trwidick

@applee Yes I watched it. It was awsome. I think this is less of an issue and something we can use to our advantage. Im thank the comunity for looking in to this. Thank you all.

@trwidick Maybe try it on other places like a text field or the app drawer. Morph sometimes has issues with focus where inputs like keyboard stop working.

rdl85

@applee thanks. I didn't want to flag him with the use of his handle (I think he has a few other issues he is tackling at the moment) which is why I simply added his forum user page if we wanted to escalate the issue. Regardless, glad to hear he is aware. Cheers
