Many laptops allow users to scroll using two fingers on the touch pad. Does Love2d v 10 have a way to recognize this action? I'm looking at the wiki entries for the touch-related callback entries, and it doesn't seem to.

(On Windows 10) I've set mine to recognize scrolling by starting in the top-right corner and moving in clockwise circles around the pad. When tested with the love.wheelmoved callback it is very inconsistent in recognizing that as a wheelmove. If it does recognize it, however, it only gets the start of it.

[wiki]love.wheelmoved[/wiki]. The operating system will interpret your two-finger movement as a scroll action and send a mouse wheel motion event to LÖVE.
