Field Detail

stateMask

public int stateMask
The state of the keyboard modifier keys and mouse masks at the time the event was generated.

See Also:
SWT.MODIFIER_MASK, SWT.BUTTON_MASK

detail

public int detail
The gesture type.

This field determines the GestureEvent fields that contain valid data.


x

public int x
The meaning of this field is dependent on the value of the detail field and the platform. It can represent either the x coordinate of the centroid of the touches that make up the gesture, or the x coordinate of the cursor at the time the gesture was performed.


y

public int y
The meaning of this field is dependent on the value of the detail field and the platform. It can represent either the y coordinate of the centroid of the touches that make up the gesture, or the y coordinate of the cursor at the time the gesture was performed.


rotation

public double rotation
This field is valid when the detail field is set to GESTURE_ROTATE. It specifies the number of degrees rotated on the device since the gesture started. Positive values indicate counter-clockwise rotation, and negative values indicate clockwise rotation.


xDirection

public int xDirection
This field is valid when the detail field is set to GESTURE_SWIPE or GESTURE_PAN. Both xDirection and yDirection can be valid for an individual gesture. The meaning of this field is dependent on the value of the detail field.

If detail is GESTURE_SWIPE then a positive value indicates a swipe to the right and a negative value indicates a swipe to the left. If detail is GESTURE_PAN then a positive value indicates a pan to the right by this field's count of pixels and a negative value indicates a pan to the left by this field's count of pixels.


yDirection

public int yDirection
This field is valid when the detail field is set to GESTURE_SWIPE or GESTURE_PAN. Both xDirection and yDirection can be valid for an individual gesture. The meaning of this field is dependent on the value of the detail field. If detail is GESTURE_SWIPE then a positive value indicates a downward swipe and a negative value indicates an upward swipe. If detail is GESTURE_PAN then a positive value indicates a downward pan by this field's count of pixels and a negative value indicates an upward pan by this field's count of pixels.


magnification

public double magnification
This field is valid when the detail field is set to GESTURE_MAGNIFY. This is the scale factor to be applied. This value will be 1.0 in the first received event with GESTURE_MAGNIFY, and will then fluctuate in subsequent events as the user moves their fingers.


doit

public boolean doit
This flag indicates whether the operation should be allowed. Setting it to false will cancel the operation.

Constructor Detail
