I recently upgraded to hammer.js 2 and one of the first things a I noticed was that "hold" has been replaced with "press".
My old code worked fine with event delegation, but switching to press only seems to work when I put it on a specific element.
Note: I use hammer.js through the jquery plugin
Hammer.js 1
$(element).hammer().on("hold",callback);
Works fine
$(rootElement).hammer().on("hold",".elementSelector",callback);
Works fine
Hammer.js 2
This
$(element).hammer().on("press",callback);
works fine, while this
$(rootElement).hammer().on("press",".elementSelector",callback);
does not. The callback is never fired.
