Menu interactions



Hi,

A lot of menus interactions are based on movement events. This is truely problematic immediatelly when one uses a touchscreen. (Clicks without movement)
And it's really easy and very common to make clicks without movement.

Touchscreen example:
When one clicks a menuitem, it does not activate it, instead it moves the cursor on the item.

Normaly one moves the cursor on the item first. The item gets the focus (and movement handlers will be run) and clicking will work fine. This is really a problem with touchscreens, because you have to click and move if you want to activate something.

Any suggestions how the situation should be handled?

(Because these two input devices are pretty much different, it may be impossible to make a solution which is good for both devices.. ?)
