Arch latest Gnome in Wayland can't move X11 emulated apps with touch screen

Anyone have this problem? Anyone find a solution?

Yes! I can confirm that problem! But I don't have a solution either, appart from using mouse or stylus ofc.. Buttons in xwayland window borders don't work either btw

Edit: on a non surface device, so not a driver issue

yeah this annoying. I basically have to use Xorg to get around it because I can't solely use GTK3 apps.

For me the only one with xwayland I regularly use is chromium, which is maximized anyways. But maybe this will change with Gnome 3.28, haven't tested it yet because it hasn't landed in Arch so far.. But they made some touch improvements, like a new onscreen keyboard
