Question

Possible issue: multitouch interface/drag targets AIR 3.8.0.1430 Windows 8

Noticed an issue with touch interface when compiling using AIR SDK 3.8.0.1430 (latest SDK and testing using latest AIR Windows player-both 3.8.0.1430).

Testing on Windows 8 Pro desktop with full multitouch screen.

Touch fails to work using  SWF compiled to AIR and played via latest Windows AIR player. (Mouse click drag works OK with AIR player; this issue only applies to touch/drag.)

Touch for drag targets works OK if using latest Windows 8 Flash player 11 to play same compiled SWF.

Leads me to think there may be a bug affecting touch when dragging an object (if compiled using latest AIR SDK and played back using latest AIR player on Windows 8 multi-touch screen).

(BTW same AS3 compiled as AIR Android APK plays back fine, including multitouch drag, when tested on Android JellyBean 4.3 tablet with latest AIR Android player.)

I noticed this AIR compiler/player issue learning scripting from: AS3 source code and source file-FLA-, plus tutorial, at http://www.emanueleferonato.com/2011/11/08/as3-version-of-nodes-engine-full-playable-game-with-infinite-solvable-levels/. (tested with mouse click as in this code, and also tested by adding multitouch classes and event handlers: made no difference.)
