Description

We are planning on using a timeline on a large touch screen device. A colleague recently discovered that it's possible to progress forward multiple slides by using multiple fingers when swiping (i.e., 2 fingers for 2 slides, 3 fingers for 3 slides, ect. Is there a way to optionally disable this feature?

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the touch/swipe slide-progression code, then determine where an option could control multi-finger advancement; done means the option disables advancing multiple slides while ordinary swipe progression still works.
