Full screen swipe wtih text

I have made an app which is a simple RSS Reader.

Each news is presented fullscreen with title, image, and short text.

I want the user to change of news by swiping left or right

I understand that :

> the only way to do swipe is to use Canvas  : is it true ?

> canvas work well with images but not with text (paint text makes dirty fonts) : is it true ?

So I see several posibilities :

> use multiple small canvas between lines of text to capture touch which would occure on the text. it seems however that this solution is complexe and hazardous

> build an image with titleText + image + shortText, and show this image in a full screen canvas. The issue here is that I do not know how to do this image building.

Can you advise me on my understanding and potential workarounds

yes, but you also could use the webviewer together with some JavaScript, but this is a little bit more complicated to set this up....

see also this App Inventor Classic example to display some text in the webviewer https://puravidaapps.com/label.php

I could convert that into App Inventor 2 and add the swipe functionality. Do you like to be the sponsor of that tutorial? If yes, just contact me by email.

I now updated my tutorial for App Inventor 2 and added touch gesture support, see here
