I’m writing a web app that uses an HTML5 canvas and testing on a Nexus Galaxy. When the user taps on the canvas, it highlights teal for a second, even though I am calling preventDefault() on the touchstart event. I have also tried some CSS rules. How do I disable this brief highlighting?
Setting the CSS rule
-webkit-tap-highlight-colortotransparenton the canvas seemed to do the trick for me.Note that I also did preventDefault and stopPropagation, so one of those might have had an effect too.
