golang slides on android - quirks

[Shivakumar GN]

There seem to be js/css quirks with golang slides (talks.golang.org) on adroid tablet (samsung galaxy tab2 to be specific).

I am not much of a js/css person. Reporting the symptoms here.

One can swipe between 1-3 slides. Then url editing needed for #4. Now slides 4-7 are swipe-moveable.

This repeats every 3 slides. Individual slide does not fit well into a screen. On zoom out, every group of 3 slides seem to be a single canvas.

Since these are slidy based, I checked the slidy presentation on w3c. Every slide movement required a url editing !

Unlike goland slides, w3c slides could not be zoomed out.

I changed the settings to "desktop site".

    - golang slides continued to have the same problem.

    - w3c slides worked fine with a *tap* equivalent to mouse click ==> useable on a tablet

I've had no problem with needing manual url tweaking on android 2.3.4's stock browser (normal size phone, not tablet), but have noticed that about 1/2 the time while viewing in landscape orientation, changing slides results in a slide being partially off-center toward the right (so the left-most 15% of the current slide is cropped off, while the left 15% of the next slide is visible). This doesn't occur in portrait orientation (though it's displayed quite small), and can be worked around in landscape by not releasing the swipe that changed slides (thereby physically "holding" the slide in its correct position).

Clarification: manual url tweaking hasn't been needed on my android 2.3.4 stock browser.

Checked with regular phone with V2.2.1 - no issues with default browser.

The tab is with V4.0.4 - has problems with both default browser & chrome.

Seems to be a corner case and not an item for this mail list.
