Bug 334996

I am running kubuntu 14.04 on an acer iconia tab w500. I have the eGalax proprietary driver installed, and multitouch is partially working with ginn (no pinch to zoom yet, but 2-finger scroll and long press for right-click works). On all other programs, the touchscreen seems to perform adequately, including other elements of Kontact. So, for example, clicking on a date in Calendar selects that date - clicking on an event selects that event and double clicking it opens the editor.

However, in Kmail, clicks with the touchscreen only seem to hover the cursor. I can't move the scroll bar (they become outlined, but don't move) and I cant select any element inside of the boxes. So, I can't select a favorite folder, when I try, the whole favorite folder box is highlighted and nothing happens. Same behavior for the message list - I click on a message, and I just see a breif synopsis of the message, it is not selected or preveiwed. I can scroll through the message list with a 2-finger scroll though.

A USB mouse works as expected.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open kmail
2. Try to select a message from the message list with the touchscreen
3. Try to select a facorite folder with the touchscreen
Actual Results:  
kmai registers touch as a move and hover.  Not as a left click at the new cursor location

Expected Results:  
Messge or folder would be selected,.

USB mouse works as expected
All other components of Kontact work as expected with the touchscreen
