Silica: Does not allow swipe back/forward if content is zoomed
I see below as a major issue but not sure how this can be solved. So please vote this if you agree. stuff like this should be solved IMHO.
I know there may be similar discussions about this already but this question is related to silica ui in general and not X/Y application because I see "bug" as an silica UI issue and not something that need to be "fixed" in one app and left in another.
This time a talk about swipe back/forward in application when content is zoomed like in a webbrowser or gallery application. More exacly when content is zoomed there is no way to navigate/backward in page stack.
you can't even do this by adding a pulley menu item with "goback"/goforward. For example see my tiny webbrowser app. The only solution is to "zoom out fully" before you can call pageStack.navigateBack()/forward and zoom out is only possible by user interaction. This issue is also shown in jolla gallery app.
Possible solution? would be: when user reaches end of "content.x", delay 1 sec then activate "navigateBack()/navigateForward()" signals... as it is implemented now in webkit you just get a "white area" when reach end of webcontent. and in gallery app nothing happens..
Its kinda hard to describe exact how I mean this could be solved, but I hope you get my idea :)
You should add the solution as an answer to your own question, so that users can vote on the best solution.
Also I added the tag "bug", since I see this as a (major) bug.
