Is there any way to test multi-touch on the Android Emulator?

Question

Can multi-touch events be tested on the Android Emulator? Or is there any way to test this without an actual device? I am using the 2.0 sdk and want to test zoom-in/zoom-out

Answer 1

For me on ubuntu double mouse click was working. First left click + fast left click and hold while moving mouse.

Answer 2

Xamarin android player has multi touch option enabled.

It is possible to simulate two-finger multi-touch input by holding the Alt/Option key and clicking on the screen.

To simulate a pinch-zoom press and hold the Alt/Option button and drag towards the centre of the screen (for zoom out) or away from the centre of the screen (for zoom in).

To simulate a two finger drag hold the Alt/Option + Shift while clicking and dragging on the screen.
