Product:Developer Tools Product Version:2.0 (Beta 1)
Classification:Feature (New) Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
For watchOS 1 and  Watch Kit in Xcode 6.2 and higher it was possible to simulate Force Touch with a long press on a Mac without a ForceTouch Trackpad.
With Xcode 7 Beta 1 and watchOS Simulator this is no longer possible. You have to switch between the touch intensity in the options to enable ForceTouch on click.

This is a bit unconvienent also I understand that this differentiation is necessary to keep to behavior of a long touch when pressing long.

But an option would be great to enable ForceTouch on long press or replace the current one with Long Touch or Force Touch on long press. In the current situation it is really annoying to test for example the ForceTouch menu in the watch sim.



Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run any project in the watch sim which has an ForceTouch menu implemented
2. Long press 
3. Nothing Happens

Expected Results:
3. Simulate a ForceTouch depending on the press duration

Actual Results:
3. A long touch is performed
