I already opened up an issue on this, but I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone could help.

The problem with the ChartRangeFilter is that I can't change the date range by selecting and dragging the control.  It just doesn't move at all.  This is both in the Google playground, and in my code as well.  This is a wonderful visualization for time series data, and it's a terrible shame that it doesn't work on the iPad.  It works just fine on Safari 5.1.7 on Windows.

Any help that can be offered is appreciated.

This is a general problem with touch-screen devices.  IIRC, the problem is with the browser, not the charts, but maybe someone on the dev team can confirm that?

Inter-operability problems are always an art at determining which component is at fault, and even then it often doesn't really matter if the other party doesn't want to fix the problem. 

I found similar functionality in a different charting lib that works on the iPad, but it isn't as good as Google Visualizations.  It seems very hard to find a good visualization tool that has a clean separation between the model and the view.

Does anyone know of any good replacements?

This is also a problem on my Android device.  Unfortunate if this is the case across the board--the project I'm working on is supposed to be cross-device AND have a ChartRangeFilter/similar capability.

Yes I have tried this with both the Ipad and Samsung Tab2 10.1 and neither device will operate with the ChartRangeFilter.
