What methods do i use to implement Android Gestures like "Tap , Double Tap, Hold, Drag , Flick, Swipe " in Touch mode

Question

I was implementing Different Gestures in Android. I want to know what methods do I use for implementing different gestures like "Tap,Double Tap,Hold,Drag,Flick,Swipe" etc

Answer 1

Here is the Kotlin example that I have implemented

private val gestureDetector by lazy {

    GestureDetector(applicationContext, object : GestureDetector.SimpleOnGestureListener() {
        override fun onLongPress(e: MotionEvent?) {
            //Your action onLongPress
            super.onLongPress(e)
        }
       // here you can implement other function like onDoubleTap ....
    })
}

To use this variable you should use #setOnTouchListener() as @ADM suggested

your_view.setOnTouchListener { _, event ->
            gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(event)
            return@setOnTouchListener true
}

Hope it helps, let me know if you want this code in Java
