TouchVTT

Introduces touch screen support to FoundryVTT. If you have a tablet, a PC or a TV equipped with a touch screen and want to play on FoundryVTT, this module is for you!

Features:

  • Use two-finger pinching and panning gestures to zoom and pan the map. Panning can be turned off for this gesture in the settings (use three fingers to pan if you change this).
  • Move tokens by dragging them with your finger - just as you would with the mouse
  • Move three fingers around on the canvas to pan the scene - no zooming in this mode.
  • Need to right-click to access the corresponding functionality on a game world entity? Just long-press (0.5s) with your finger.
  • Move windows around and interact with their content intuitively
  • Removing measurement templates usually requires you to press the DELETE key on your keyboard. TouchVTT adds an eraser tool to the measurement templates menu that can be used with touch controls. First tap the eraser tool, then tap the template you want to remove.
  • Additional wall placement tools that work with touch controls

Primary use cases:

  • You and your group play in person and you want to use Foundry to visualize gameplay - just put a touchscreen device in the middle of the table, install TouchVTT and you'll be good to go!
  • You like playing on your couch where a touch device is just so much more convenient than a laptop

Compatibility with other modules

This module changes the behavior of several aspects of FoundryVTT by overriding many methods (especially wall and measurement controls at the moment). I implemented all that with compatibility to other modules in mind by using libWrapper. If you experience any issues that could stem from module incompatibility, please install and activate libWrapper.

The Lock View module is supported. Touch zooming and panning is disabled when those features are locked in "Lock View".
