Mouse Button Down Bug? On Android

Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I used Tshirtbooth's "Multiscreen Menus" video to get a swipe around the screen working. It works just fine in Preview, but as soon as I try it on either of my Android phones it just doesn't work. I've narrowed it down to the When Actor receives event mouse button down rule. I have the actors displayed on the screen so I can see whether they are moving or not. On my phone when I touch anywhere the Drag actor does not move to the location at all. I've tried both with the Change Attribute Position X to mouse.position x and touch1 position x. Neither are working so it appears to be an issue with the rule itself. Like I said it works just fine in the previewer, but not on the Android device.

Was just wondering if this is a recent bug or something that is known because I have used this plenty of times before and it is just recently that it no longer works. (Within the last update time frame).

    Why don't you try "when Touch is 'pressed' or 'released' " instead of "when mouse button is down or up"?

    @fozkul I can, but using mouse button down is far easier for the situation. With the touch pressed I have to have the information relayed between an actor that spans the whole screen and the drag actor versus the drag actor being able to read the information itself. I was just trying to figure out if this is something anyone else has been seeing so I know whether it is a bug or maybe something they just changed the way it works.

    Well I guess I figured out what the issue was. The Android viewer I had must have been bugged. Odd thing was it was on both devices so maybe they had problems with the viewer I had downloaded and I just didn't know they updated it.
