I have a Microsoft Surface 7 and have the plugin enabled in Outlook. It works fine with the mouse. but when i attempt to use touch screen e.g. update the subject line or click to add a task nothing happens. as if the plugin is not accepting touch as an input mechanism.

    Hi @aelmore - thanks for reaching out and welcome to the community!

    Hm, haven't encountered this issue before - would love to investigate this further. Just to be clear, you're referring to the MeisterTask Outlook add-in pane as shown below, correct?

    Best,

    Thanks - i did some more testing and what happens is it takes multiples on the screen to get "into a field" to edit it. it eventually gets there but it consistently takes 3 or 4 taps.

    Hi @aelmore - We're having trouble reproducing this on our side. Can you confirm that other Outlook Add-Ins are working perfectly fine, and that it is only the MeisterTask add-in that has this issue?

    Confirming you are correct... Mindmeister was the only plugin i was using but i tried a couple of others and encountered similar issues. thanks for the followup.
