Dismiss when touching outside - without consuming the touch event?

[znakeeye]

Using v1.3.4. When showing a tooltip, it gets dismissed automatically when touching outside of it. However, there seems to be no way to not consume this touch event.

In my use case, I show a tooltip like "Swipe down to refresh". So, as a user I try to swipe but nothing happens - the touch event closes the tooltip and then nothing. Obviously, the touch event got consumed so I need to swipe a second time. This is a bit confusing.

Opt-in to not consume touch event
Perhaps this could be improved. In some scenarios, it is desirable to allow the touch event to continue routing. Something like:

.setConsumeTouchOutside(false)

Hi, you can implement it using the below codes.

.setDismissWhenTouchOutside(false)

Nice. So I would explicitly dismiss it myself? On touch?

Yes, you should invoke the dismiss() method explicitly if you want to close the popup.
Or you can set the setOnBalloonClickListener and close the Balloon when users touch the inside of the popup.

Thanks. The suggested method works. Though, it would be even better if this could be built into the library :)
