Detailed Description

Abstract base class for gestures.

This is the base object for gesture recognition. Although this object is quite generalized to serve as a base for multi-touch gestures, it is suitable to implement single-touch and pointer-based gestures (using the special GdkEventSequence value for these).

The number of touches that a Gesture need to be recognized is controlled by the n-points property. If a gesture is keeping track of less or more than that number of sequences, it won't check whether the gesture is recognized.

As soon as the gesture has the expected number of touches, the gesture will run check signal regularly on input events until the gesture is recognized. The criteria to consider a gesture as "recognized" is left to Gesture subclasses.

A recognized gesture will then emit the following signals:

Event propagation

In order to receive events, a gesture needs to either set a propagation phase through EventController::set_propagation_phase(), or feed those manually through EventController::handle_event().

In the capture phase, events are propagated from the toplevel down to the target widget, and gestures that are attached to containers above the widget get a chance to interact with the event before it reaches the target.

After the capture phase, GTK+ emits the traditional Widget::signal_button_press_event(), Widget::signal_button_release_event(), Widget::signal_touch_event(), etc. Gestures with the Gtk::PHASE_TARGET phase are fed events from the default Widget::signal_event() handlers.

In the bubble phase, events are propagated up from the target widget to the toplevel, and gestures that are attached to containers above the widget get a chance to interact with events that have not been handled yet.

States of a sequence

Whenever input interaction happens, a single event may trigger a cascade of Gestures, both across the parents of the widget receiving the event and parallelly within an individual widget. It is a responsibility of the widgets using those gestures to set the state of touch sequences accordingly in order to enable cooperation of gestures around the GdkEventSequences triggering those.

Within a widget, gestures can be grouped through group(). Grouped gestures synchronize the state of sequences, so calling set_sequence_state() on one will effectively propagate the state throughout the group.

By default, all sequences start out in the Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_NONE state. Sequences in this state trigger the gesture event handler, but event propagation will continue unstopped by gestures.

If a sequence enters into the Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_DENIED state, the gesture group will effectively ignore the sequence, letting events go unstopped through the gesture, but the "slot" will still remain occupied while the touch is active.

If a sequence enters in the Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_CLAIMED state, the gesture group will grab all interaction on the sequence, by:

  • Setting the same sequence to Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_DENIED on every other gesture group within the widget, and every gesture on parent widgets in the propagation chain.
  • emitting signal_cancel() on every gesture in widgets underneath in the propagation chain.
  • Stopping event propagation after the gesture group handles the event.
Note
If a sequence is set early to Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_CLAIMED on Gdk::TOUCH_BEGIN/Gdk::BUTTON_PRESS (so those events are captured before reaching the event widget, this implies Gtk::PHASE_CAPTURE), one similar event will be emulated if the sequence changes to Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_DENIED. This way event coherence is preserved before event propagation is unstopped again.

Sequence states can't be changed freely, see set_sequence_state() to know about the possible lifetimes of a GdkEventSequence.

There is no create() method that corresponds to this constructor, because only derived classes shall be created.

Member Function Documentation

bool Gtk::Gesture::get_bounding_box ( Gdk::Rectangle rect) const

If there are touch sequences being currently handled by gesture, this function returns true and fills in rect with the bounding box containing all active touches.

Otherwise, false will be returned.

Note
This function will yield unexpected results on touchpad gestures. Since there is no correlation between physical and pixel distances, these will look as if constrained in an infinitely small area, rect width and height will thus be 0 regardless of the number of touchpoints.
Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
rectBounding box containing all active touches.
Returns
true if there are active touches, false otherwise.
bool Gtk::Gesture::get_bounding_box_center ( double &  x,
double &  y 
) const

If there are touch sequences being currently handled by gesture, this function returns true and fills in x and y with the center of the bounding box containing all active touches.

Otherwise, false will be returned.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
xX coordinate for the bounding box center.
yY coordinate for the bounding box center.
Returns
false if no active touches are present, true otherwise.
Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Device> Gtk::Gesture::get_device ( )

The list of Gtk::Gestures.
const GdkEvent* Gtk::Gesture::get_last_event ( GdkEventSequence *  sequence) const

Returns the last event that was processed for sequence.

Note that the returned pointer is only valid as long as the sequence is still interpreted by the gesture. If in doubt, you should make a copy of the event.

Parameters
sequenceA Gdk::EventSequence.
Returns
The last event from sequence.
GdkEventSequence* Gtk::Gesture::get_last_updated_sequence ( )

Returns the Gdk::EventSequence that was last updated on gesture.

Returns
The last updated sequence.
const GdkEventSequence* Gtk::Gesture::get_last_updated_sequence ( ) const

Returns the Gdk::EventSequence that was last updated on gesture.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Returns
The last updated sequence.
bool Gtk::Gesture::get_point ( GdkEventSequence *  sequence,
double &  x,
double &  y 
) const

If sequence is currently being interpreted by gesture, this function returns true and fills in x and y with the last coordinates stored for that event sequence.

The coordinates are always relative to the widget allocation.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
sequenceA Gdk::EventSequence, or nullptr for pointer events.
xReturn location for X axis of the sequence coordinates.
yReturn location for Y axis of the sequence coordinates.

GtkGesture* Gtk::Gesture::gobj ( )
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

const GtkGesture* Gtk::Gesture::gobj ( ) const
inline

Provides access to the underlying C GObject.

GtkGesture* Gtk::Gesture::gobj_copy ( )

Provides access to the underlying C instance. The caller is responsible for unrefing it. Use when directly setting fields in structs.

void Gtk::Gesture::group ( const Glib::RefPtr< Gesture >&  group_gesture)

Adds gesture to the same group than group_gesture.

Gestures are by default isolated in their own groups.

When gestures are grouped, the state of Gdk::EventSequences is kept in sync for all of those, so calling set_sequence_state(), on one will transfer the same value to the others.

Groups also perform an "implicit grabbing" of sequences, if a Gdk::EventSequence state is set to Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_CLAIMED on one group, every other gesture group attached to the same Gtk::Widget will switch the state for that sequence to Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_DENIED.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
group_gestureGtk::Gesture to group gesture with.
bool Gtk::Gesture::handles_sequence ( GdkEventSequence *  sequence) const

Returns true if gesture is currently handling events corresponding to sequence.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
sequenceA Gdk::EventSequence.
Returns
true if gesture is handling sequence.
bool Gtk::Gesture::is_active ( ) const

Returns true if the gesture is currently active.

A gesture is active meanwhile there are touch sequences interacting with it.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Returns
true if gesture is active.
bool Gtk::Gesture::is_grouped_with ( const Glib::RefPtr< Gesture >&  other) const

Returns true if both gestures pertain to the same group.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
otherAnother Gtk::Gesture.
Returns
Whether the gestures are grouped.
bool Gtk::Gesture::is_recognized ( ) const

Returns true if the gesture is currently recognized.

A gesture is recognized if there are as many interacting touch sequences as required by gesture, and Gtk::Gesture::signal_check() returned true for the sequences being currently interpreted.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Returns
true if gesture is recognized.
Gesture& Gtk::Gesture::operator= ( Gesture&&  src)
noexcept
Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< unsigned int > Gtk::Gesture::property_n_points ( ) const

The number of touch points that trigger recognition on this gesture,.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
Glib::PropertyProxy< Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Window> > Gtk::Gesture::property_window ( )

If non-nullptr, the gesture will only listen for events that happen on this Gdk::Window, or a child of it.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Returns
A PropertyProxy that allows you to get or set the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
Glib::PropertyProxy_ReadOnly< Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Window> > Gtk::Gesture::property_window ( ) const

If non-nullptr, the gesture will only listen for events that happen on this Gdk::Window, or a child of it.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Returns
A PropertyProxy_ReadOnly that allows you to get the value of the property, or receive notification when the value of the property changes.
bool Gtk::Gesture::set_sequence_state ( GdkEventSequence *  sequence,
EventSequenceState  state 
)

Sets the state of sequence in gesture.

Sequences start in state Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_NONE, and whenever they change state, they can never go back to that state. Likewise, sequences in state Gtk::EVENT_SEQUENCE_DENIED cannot turn back to a not denied state. With these rules, the lifetime of an event sequence is constrained to the next four:

  • None
  • None → Denied
  • None → Claimed
  • None → Claimed → Denied
Note
Due to event handling ordering, it may be unsafe to set the state on another gesture within a Gtk::Gesture::signal_begin() signal handler, as the callback might be executed before the other gesture knows about the sequence. A safe way to perform this could be:

[C example ellipted]

If both gestures are in the same group, just set the state on the gesture emitting the event, the sequence will be already be initialized to the group's global state when the second gesture processes the event.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
sequenceA Gdk::EventSequence.
stateThe sequence state.
Returns
true if sequence is handled by gesture, and the state is changed successfully.
bool Gtk::Gesture::set_state ( EventSequenceState  state)

Sets the state of all sequences that gesture is currently interacting with.

See set_sequence_state() for more details on sequence states.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
stateThe sequence state.
Returns
true if the state of at least one sequence was changed successfully.
void Gtk::Gesture::set_window ( const Glib::RefPtr< Gdk::Window >&  window)

Sets a specific window to receive events about, so gesture will effectively handle only events targeting window, or a child of it.

window must pertain to Gtk::EventController::get_widget().

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
windowA Gdk::Window, or nullptr.
Glib::SignalProxy< void,GdkEventSequence* > Gtk::Gesture::signal_begin ( )
Slot Prototype:
void on_my_begin(GdkEventSequence* sequence)

This signal is emitted when the gesture is recognized. This means the number of touch sequences matches Gtk::Gesture::property_n_points(), and the Gtk::Gesture::signal_check() handler(s) returned #true.

Note
These conditions may also happen when an extra touch (eg. a third touch on a 2-touches gesture) is lifted, in that situation sequence won't pertain to the current set of active touches, so don't rely on this being true.
Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
sequenceThe Gdk::EventSequence that made the gesture to be recognized.
Glib::SignalProxy< void,GdkEventSequence* > Gtk::Gesture::signal_cancel ( )
Slot Prototype:
void on_my_cancel(GdkEventSequence* sequence)

This signal is emitted whenever a sequence is cancelled. This usually happens on active touches when Gtk::EventController::reset() is called on gesture (manually, due to grabs...), or the individual sequence was claimed by parent widgets' controllers (see Gtk::Gesture::set_sequence_state()).

gesture must forget everything about sequence as a reaction to this signal.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
sequenceThe Gdk::EventSequence that was cancelled.
Glib::SignalProxy< void,GdkEventSequence* > Gtk::Gesture::signal_end ( )
Slot Prototype:
void on_my_end(GdkEventSequence* sequence)

This signal is emitted when gesture either stopped recognizing the event sequences as something to be handled (the Gtk::Gesture::signal_check() handler returned false), or the number of touch sequences became higher or lower than Gtk::Gesture::property_n_points().

Note
sequence might not pertain to the group of sequences that were previously triggering recognition on gesture (ie. a just pressed touch sequence that exceeds Gtk::Gesture::property_n_points()). This situation may be detected by checking through Gtk::Gesture::handles_sequence().
Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
sequenceThe Gdk::EventSequence that made gesture recognition to finish.
Glib::SignalProxy< void,GdkEventSequence*,EventSequenceState > Gtk::Gesture::signal_sequence_state_changed ( )
Slot Prototype:
void on_my_sequence_state_changed(GdkEventSequence* sequence, EventSequenceState state)

This signal is emitted whenever a sequence state changes. See Gtk::Gesture::set_sequence_state() to know more about the expectable sequence lifetimes.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
sequenceThe Gdk::EventSequence that was cancelled.
stateThe new sequence state.
Glib::SignalProxy< void,GdkEventSequence* > Gtk::Gesture::signal_update ( )
Slot Prototype:
void on_my_update(GdkEventSequence* sequence)

This signal is emitted whenever an event is handled while the gesture is recognized. sequence is guaranteed to pertain to the set of active touches.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
Parameters
sequenceThe Gdk::EventSequence that was updated.
void Gtk::Gesture::ungroup ( )

Separates gesture into an isolated group.

Since gtkmm 3.14:
void Gtk::Gesture::unset_window ( )

Undoes the effect of previous calls to set_window(), so the gesture will handle events targeting any Gdk::Window that pertains to Gtk::EventController::get_widget().

Since gtkmm 3.14:
