Jul 27, 2014 at 15:09 comment added Bob @VirtualDXS As Oliver pointed out, it's sufficient for the question to mention that it's an issue with multitouch in the title or body. IMO it's not really a distinct enough category to warrant another tag in addition to [tag:touch*], nor would it be particularly useful for filtering (one of the main purposes of tags).

Jul 25, 2014 at 21:10 comment added Dessa Simpson I think the multitouch tag should only be used to specify problems with the multitouch feature specifically.
Jul 25, 2014 at 15:12 comment added Oliver Salzburg @SeanAllred That's a valid point and I would agree that not every touch device supports multi-touch. But the distinction shouldn't be important enough to require a specific tag.
Jul 25, 2014 at 14:58 comment added Sean Allred @OliverSalzburg Of course not; that would be absolutely useless. Tags are supposed to be general categories of problems, and I think it's incredibly presumptuous to think that "these years all devices support multi-touch". Maybe that's just me and my exposure though.
Jul 25, 2014 at 14:28 comment added Oliver Salzburg @SeanAllred There is no requirement to have a specific tag for every single kind of problem. In fact, that's exactly not what we want.
Jul 24, 2014 at 21:20 comment added mpower @SeanAllred we can add opposite tag because of usage. question edited

Jul 23, 2014 at 17:21 comment added Sean Allred And if it is a question about a device that freaks out when multiple touches are recognized or not recognized? What then?
