Enabling panning everywhere

[FloErwerth]

Hi there :)

I have the problem, that the gestures are not enabled when touching outside of the canvas. I could confirm that by drawing a box with the size of the canvas and when trying to tap / pan / zoom outside of the canvas it does not work.

Is there a way to enable gestures everywhere in the graph?

Hi @FloErwerth, thanks for the question. Right now, there isn't a way to configure it to be the entire canvas. We have it setup with the dimensions wrapping just the plotted area of the chart:

    <GestureHandlerRootView style={{ flex: 1, overflow: "hidden" }}>
      {body}
      <GestureHandler
        gesture={composed}
        transformState={transformState}
        dimensions={{
          x: Math.min(xScale.range()[0]!, 0),
          y: Math.min(primaryYScale.range()[0]!, 0),
          width: xScale.range()[1]! - Math.min(xScale.range()[0]!, 0),
          height:
            primaryYScale.range()[1]! - Math.min(primaryYScale.range()[0]!, 0),
        }}
      />
    </GestureHandlerRootView>
