ionic-framework: bug: Drag events not working in Android 4.4.2

Type: <span ionic-type>bug</span>

Platform: <span ionic-platform>android</span> <span ionic-platform-version>4.4</span> <span ionic-webview>webview</span>

<span ionic-description>This issue refers to a regression introduced with this commit from 19 Mar.

This is a new issue as desired by @perrygovier. Again (concerning above commit), what exactly do you mean by “Prevent gestures from breaking native scrolling”? Is there a use/test case? I could’t find a related issue.

Here is a codepen that demonstrates the issue (try to drag the red box): http://codepen.io/MartinMa/pen/vOEmVR

Please confirm.

To get it up and running on your Android device, run the following commands using Ionic CLI.

ionic start dragtest http://codepen.io/MartinMa/pen/vOEmVR
cd dragtest
ionic platform add android
ionic run android

As already mentioned by @gregor-srdic, this issue also affects built-in events like on-hold. (see issue 1729)

There is a work around. You have to pass {prevent_default_directions = ['left', 'up', 'right', 'down']} as fourth argument to $ionicGesture.on.

I think preventDefault(); should be the default, if 'overflow-scroll' isn’t present? With the current behavior it breaks drag gestures when using Ionic scroll - which is the default. So it’s broken by default 😉</span>
