LiveView screen dragging - What's it for?

Post by VanguardLH »

In LiveView, I can tap and hold on the camera's display and can drag it around. That is, the camera display will move on the screen as I tap and drag but as soon as I lift my finger then the display snaps back. While dragging, a Trash icon appears but dragging the LiveView display to the Trash icon does nothing. This seems a superfluous or non-implemented feature of LiveView.

I thought (well, had hoped) that dragging might be a way to have the camera change position based on where I dragged the screen, like tap on a spot and drag it the middle of the screen to get the camera to move there instead of me trying swipe over and over to pan and tilt to see something at that spot angle.

I don't see the purpose of the camera's display moving around inside the app when I tap and hold to drag the camera's display around inside the app.
