Pointer Gestures

Rich gestures that work on both desktop and mobile

PointerGestures uses PointerEvents to make useful gestures for application development.

Events

Included events are:

• tap - a pointer moves down and up quickly, preventable with <pointerevent>.preventTap
• hold - a pointer is held down
• holdpulse - fires on an interval while the pointer is held down
• release - a held pointer is released
• flick - a primary pointer moved quickly across the screen, and was released
• trackstart - a primary pointer has started moving away from it's inital start point
• track - a primary pointer continues to move, targets the element that received trackstart
• trackend - a primary pointer has been released, targets the element that received trackstart
• pinch - Two pointers are pinching in and out
• rotate - Two pointers are rotating around a center point

Installation

1. Install the PointerEvents polyfill as a sibling to PointerGestures

2. Include PointerGestures/pointergestures.js in your page.

3. Set the touch-action of a few elements and see the events fire!
