>And what about support of new pointer and manipulation events?


There is no native support in VFP for any new events (posted in WM_GESTURE and WM_TOUCH messages). These can be added mechanically using BINDEVENT(), though they require some logic to signal proper events based on actual "mechanical" movement, such as pinch in/out, rotate, tap, double-tap, multi-touch, etc.

It would be a nice little project to create an easy-to-use DLL which provided native support for it.
