drag + zoom in LensWindowManager

[Daniel Blaukopf]

Hi Johan,

1. You are correct that it is Monocle that is being maintained, not Lens. So it would be better to get a fix in there.
2. There is an automated test framework for bugs like this in tests/system/src/test/java/com/sun/glass/ui/monocle. If you open a JIRA there then we’ll try to add a test for this case. This tests can still be run on Lens as well (for now).
3. Do you mean we get a TOUCH_PRESSED event when two fingers are already on the screen and one is moved?

Thanks,
Daniel
