Using the Touch Menu Bar

You can use the default touch menu bar or touch strip to cut, copy, and paste cells. You can also customize the touch strip to provide additional options.

Tap a selected range to display the touch menu bar. The following image displays a default touch menu bar.

You can use the TouchToolbarOpening event to display a customized touch bar. You can also add menu items to the touch bar.

Refer to Using Touch Support with Drag and Fill for information about creating a drag fill option in the touch menu.
