How to trigger draw event remotely?

[moyjohnsen]

I would like to know if it is possible to trigger the draw event from outside of the canvas. Something like so:

somediv.addEventListener('touchstart', function(){ startdrawing(someotherdiv); })

I am doing this because I have a dynamically created div, and the new signaturePad call assigned to that div works on desktop browsers, but not on mobile. So I would like to call the draw function manually on a touch event.

You can try triggering the event on the other div

somediv.addEventListener('touchstart', (event) => {
  someotherdiv.dispatchEvent(new TouchEvent('touchstart', event));
});
