Also called Press and hold, Touch and hold
Holding an item down for a moment triggers extra actions or a progress fill.
Context menus, hold to confirm
Replace [where] with the part of your page and paste the prompt into your AI agent. Each prompt includes the name of the motion, so next time you can simply ask for it by name.
Add a "Long Press" interaction (also called press and hold or touch and hold) to [where].
While the item is held down it should sink slightly as a progress fill sweeps across it at a steady pace, and when the fill completes it springs back and opens its menu; letting go early cancels and resets the fill.
Give keyboard and screen reader users another way to reach the same actions, and do not let the hold trigger text selection or the browser's own context menu.
