I am having a problem with onPress events when using a touch screen. Everything works fine in Firefox on my local machine, but when it is running on the touch screen, it requires two presses. It isn’t a double click either… It appears that one press is setting focus of the btn/mc and the second press actually initiates the function associated with the onPress event. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
