Understanding Touch Messages

Touch messages are processed in cell areas (Tap, Panning, Pinch, and so on); however, in header and footer areas (column header, row header, corner, and column footer) and the scroll bar area, touch messages are treated as mouse messages.

For example, a panning operation on the column header becomes a column selection action (similar to using the mouse). GcSpreadSheet does not scroll.

GcSpreadSheet provides an InputDeviceType property that returns the message's device type.
