<p>Good idea regarding the pressure-sensitive touch reaction :)</p>
<p>When doing a quick search I found this JavaScript library: <a class="x_moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://pressurejs.com">
https://pressurejs.com</a></p>
<p>I quickly tested it on my Android tablet and it seems to work well! Maybe I'll make use of this in the future.</p>

Tobias, (all)<br>
<br>
I don't do mobile development, so if this is beyond the realm of easy implementation... ignore it. <br>
<br>
The limitation of android apps in this area has always been lack of pointer... which turns into mistaps (mostly caused by fingers 3x th size of the target). I'd like to see pressure sensitive touch which would work like the 'hover' functionality in Bibletime...
a light touch would pop out a box with essential part of the definition, and a more firm touch then opens the full definition either in the main window or a sidebar like area. It's not exactly like the hover in BT, but touch sensitivity enabled provides a
pretty close functionality. Again, I know most androids now have pressure sensitivity built in... but I don't know if it's easily accessible as just a tap. <br>

<p>Hi Jeff,</p>
<p>I am still planning to develop that interlinear functionality that I wrote about in February, I have not started yet ... but will soon.</p>
<p>The interlinear visualization used by BibleHub is actually nice! I could imagine to do something similar in Ezra Bible App.</p>
<p>I am currently not targeting mobile use with Ezra, but certainly tablets (Windows and Android) and the user interface is also touch-based. In the future we may see an iPad version as well.<br>
</p>
<p>You already find a strongs dictionary functionality in Ezra, similar to what other frontends are doing, with the typical mouse-over strongs-word / dictionary update. But that only works on the desktop due to the mouseover limitation.</p>
<p>Focussing more on being touch-friendly is one of my goals for new functionality in Ezra. In fact, for me personally my Android tablet has become the primary device for this software ... at least for casual study.<br>
</p>
<p>I'd also be curious to see screenshots of your work!</p>
<p>I'll be keeping you posted whenever I have something ready to try. I am personally not a Greek/Hebrew expert, but nevertheless I enjoy some tool-based original language study. I'd be happy about getting feedback from users like you in the future!</p>
<p>Blessings,<br>
Tobias<br>
