Class: GestureRecognizer

GestureRecognizer(target, callback)

Gesture recognizers translate user input event streams into higher level actions. A gesture recognizer is associated with an event target, which dispatches mouse and keyboard events to the gesture recognizer. When a gesture recognizer has received enough information from the event stream to interpret the action, it calls its callback functions. Callback functions may be specified at construction or added to the gestureCallbacks list after construction.

Constructor

new GestureRecognizer(target, callback)

Constructs a base gesture recognizer. This is an abstract base class and not intended to be instantiated directly.
Parameters:

callback function An optional function to call when this gesture is recognized. If non-null, the function is called when this gesture is recognized, and is passed a single argument: this gesture recognizer, e.g., gestureCallback(recognizer).
