6 touches = cancel?

Magnusviri

I was just playing with the Touch Explorer example and I noticed that 6 touches produces a touches cancel, getting rid of all touch events. Can't the 6th touch be ignored? It's pretty hard to accidentally put down 6 touches on my iPhone. It might be easier on my iPad though.

Unfortunately it's the default behaviour of the system. But iPad can handle touches with more than 10. :^o

BTW, on my HP TouchPad/android I can get up to 11 touches (did not check if 12th or more would cancel, because I miss more fingers to test it...). If 6th touch would be ignored, you could not implement for example a piano keyboard.
Did not test my iPad (yet). BTW, I was using modified version of TouchExplorer, as the original supports only 5 touches.
Edit: I got also 11 touches on iPad, so don't know what is a limit.

Ok. (%)
