Expand description
a swipe gesture object
A swipe gesture object notifies a client about a multi-finger swipe gesture detected on an indirect input device such as a touchpad. The gesture is usually initiated by multiple fingers moving in the same direction but once initiated the direction may change. The precise conditions of when such a gesture is detected are implementation-dependent.
A gesture consists of three stages: begin, update (optional) and end. There cannot be multiple simultaneous hold, pinch or swipe gestures on a same pointer/seat, how compositors prevent these situations is implementation-dependent.
A gesture may be cancelled by the compositor or the hardware. Clients should not consider performing permanent or irreversible actions until the end of a gesture has been received.
