1013899 - Support Samsung's Finger Air View (hover preview)

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect, P5)

Description

[Brad Lassey [:blassey] (use needinfo?)]

We can do link previews on hover or support tooltips.

To support, we need to add <action android:name="com.sec.android.airview.HOVER" /> to the intent filter

Ian, is there anything you'd want to do with these events?

Whoa. Maybe! 

Adding Yuan and Anthony to get their brains thinking about this too :)

Air view could be very useful to allow web developers to trigger CSS :hover rules on touch screens. Having this support on the browser would instantly enable :hover selectors which web developers put on stylesheets and never got it to work on mobile.
