Touchscreen and Desktop App

Hey Everyone,

I am using a surface book 2. When I am using it as a tablet I have been having issues with the desktop app. When I select library and then select a book using touchscreen it does nothing. Same thing with other options that are selected from the bar at the top/side. Menus open but then any touches within the menu actions nothing. Do I need to do something to switch it to 'tablet mode' or is there an alternatve mobile version that I should be using?

Logos currently has not been designed to work with touch screens. This is an often requested feature, but so far nothing has been implemented. For now, this is your only option as the Mobile versions, which are designed for touch, won't run on your surface.

I have a touchscreen device from HP (similar to Surface Pro) and for me these things seem to work. To open books from the library, you have to either touch the book title or double-tap in other columns (Type etc.). This is the same behavior as with a mouse.

I am on the beta version and there have been some improvements according to Ali's comment (scroll down):

But I think, even before I did not have the problems you are describing.
