Hi Jordan,
I am not sure whether this reply is correct or not, but i guess sap.ui is mainly for Desktop right? with a Mouse?
To handle touch we need to use some extra stuff or property, i guess.
selectionMode : sap.ui.table.SelectionMode.Single
Here you can control the selection mode such as None (disable selection), Single (maximum one row can be selected at any time) and Multi (one or more rows can be selected) . Default is Multi
selectionBehavior: sap.ui.table.SelectionBehavior.Row
Here you can control how the row can be selected such as RowOnly (mouse click on the row only), Row (mouse click on the row and row selector) and RowSelector (mouse click on the row selector only). Default is RowSelector.
