In Google Glass XE16 GestureDetector can detect several gestures like LONG_PRESS, SWIPE_DOWN, THREE_LONG_PRESS, TWO_SWIPE_DOWN , TWO_TAP & SOME OTHER GESTURES.
In glass TWO_SWIPE_DOWN is like shortcut option to cancel everything and go to black screen. After that black screen it comes "ok glass".
But I need to override the TWO_SWIPE_DOWN TAP so that user can not go outside the application in this way. I want to show the user specific message in the time of tapping TWO_SWIPE_DOWN.
I have code following GDK Touch Gestures like below :
gestureDetector.setBaseListener(new GestureDetector.BaseListener() {
@Override
public boolean onGesture(Gesture gesture) {
if (gesture == Gesture.TAP) {
return true;
} else if (gesture == Gesture.TWO_TAP) {
return true;
} else if (gesture == Gesture.SWIPE_RIGHT) {
return true;
} else if (gesture == Gesture.SWIPE_LEFT) {
return true;
} else if (gesture == Gesture.TWO_SWIPE_DOWN) {
Log.i("Checking the TAPPING of TWO_SWIPE_DOWN", "Its working fine.");
return true;
}
return true;
}
});
Above code able to catch every other tap without the TWO_SWIPE_DOWN TAP!
So how I will be able to catch the TWO_SWIPE_DOWN TAP?
If your code is within a View/SurfaceView this is the implementation that Google provides
/**
* TextView that handles touchpad input (currently only TAP).
*/
public class TouchpadHandlingTextView extends TextView
implements OnAttachStateChangeListener{
private final GestureDetector mTouchDetector;
public TouchpadHandlingTextView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
mTouchDetector = createGestureDetector(context);
// must set the view to be focusable
setFocusable(true);
setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
}
public TouchpadHandlingTextView(Context context) {
this(context, null);
}
@Override
public void onViewAttachedToWindow(View v) {
requestFocus();
}
@Override
public void onViewDetachedFromWindow(View v) {
}
/**
* Pass a MotionEvent into the gesture detector
*/
@Override
public boolean dispatchGenericFocusedEvent(MotionEvent event) {
if (isFocused()) {
return mTouchDetector.onMotionEvent(event);
}
return super.dispatchGenericFocusedEvent(event);
}
/**
* Create gesture detector that triggers onClickListener. Implement
* onClickListener in your Activity and override
* onClick() to handle the "tap" gesture.
*/
private GestureDetector createGestureDetector(Context context) {
GestureDetector gd = new GestureDetector(context);
gd.setBaseListener(new GestureDetector.BaseListener() {
@Override
public boolean onGesture(Gesture gesture) {
if (gesture == Gesture.TAP) {
return performClick();
}
if(gesture == Gesture.SWIPE_DOWN){
//Do something instead of close app
return true;
}
}
});
return gd;
}
}
That will give you full control of your Views events.
