Pinch and Rotate not working in Chrome

[RopoMen]

Hi,

I wanted to use TouchEmulator with Chrome to make my development easier (not needing to debug with ipad). I tested TouchEmulator over here http://rawgit.com/hammerjs/touchemulator/master/tests/manual/hammer.html

and noticed that pinch and rotate is not working with Chrome

OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
Chrome Version 55.0.2883.95 (64-bit)

Tested by adding breakpoint inside

 function onPinch(ev) {
        if(ev.type == 'pinchstart') { /*Breakpoint on this line*/
            initScale = transform.scale || 1;
        }

        el.className = '';
        transform.scale = initScale * ev.scale;

        requestElementUpdate();
        logEvent(ev.type);
    }

Tested that same demo using Firefox 50.1.0 and it went on that onPinch function and rotate worked also.

I'm experiencing the same on

OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
Chrome Version 59.0.3071.115 (Official Build) (64-bit)

I've found information about a PointerEvents change https://github.com/hammerjs/hammer.js/issues/1084 and other similar posts but i couldn't find a concrete reason why this doesn't work on Chrome.

Anyone more info on this?

It works on Safari by the way.

1 1/2 years later, still not working in Chrome @jtangelder :( I've also tested Safari and Firefox which don't work, too.

Im on macOS High Sierra 10.13.5 and using latest Chrome / Firefox / Safari

pinch/rotate don't work for me on chrome 69, firefox 62

macOS 10.14

Does not appear to send any events that Hammer can pick up in any browser tested.

I think it's safe to call this package a dead package.

Thanks @marijntje42 -- that was the missing piece for me as well. Also don't forget that pinch is disabled by default: https://hammerjs.github.io/recognizer-pinch/
