I tried implementing 2 finger swipe using onFling method of SimpleOnGestureListener. However,I found that SimpleOnGestureListener doesn't support two finger touch.
How can I work it out ?
I tried implementing 2 finger swipe using onFling method of SimpleOnGestureListener. However,I found that SimpleOnGestureListener doesn't support two finger touch.

My Solution works, but its quite ugly to use a public static int to count how many fingers there are. i had to set fingercount back to one after i flinged with two fingers because i couldnot get the action_pointer_down for one finger anymore... i dont know why... but this solution would also work for more fingers... hope someone can use it in the feature
public class RemoteFragment extends Fragment{ public static int fingercount = 1; @Override public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) { final GestureDetector gdt = new GestureDetector(getActivity(), new RemoteGestureListener()); View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.gestures, container, false); view.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() { @Override public boolean onTouch(final View view, final MotionEvent event) { int action = event.getAction(); switch (action & MotionEvent.ACTION_MASK) { case MotionEvent.ACTION_POINTER_DOWN: Log.d(TAG, "Pointer-Count =" + String.valueOf(fingerCount = event .getPointerCount())); break; } gdt.onTouchEvent(event); return true; } }); return view; } } public class RemoteGestureListener implements OnGestureListenerr { private final static String TAG = "RemoteGestureListener"; private static final int SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE = 120; private static final int SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY = 200; public RemoteGestureListener() { } @Override public boolean onFling(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float velocityX, float velocityY) { Log.d(TAG, "onFling"); if (e1.getX() - e2.getX() > SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityX) > SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY) { if (RemoteFragment.fingerCount == 1) { Log.d(TAG, "Left Swipe"); } else { Log.d(TAG, "Left xFinger Swipe"); RemoteFragment.fingerCount = 1; } return true; // Right to left } else if (e2.getX() - e1.getX() > SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityX) > SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY) { if (RemoteFragment.fingerCount == 1) { Log.d(TAG, "Right Swipe"); } else { Log.d(TAG, "Right xFinger Swipe"); RemoteFragment.fingerCount = 1; } return true; // Left to right } if (e1.getY() - e2.getY() > SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityY) > SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY) { if (RemoteFragment.fingerCount == 1) { Log.d(TAG, "Top Swipe"); } else { Log.d(TAG, "Top xFinger Swipe"); RemoteFragment.fingerCount = 1; } return true; // Bottom to top } else if (e2.getY() - e1.getY() > SWIPE_MIN_DISTANCE && Math.abs(velocityY) > SWIPE_THRESHOLD_VELOCITY) { if (RemoteFragment.fingerCount == 1) { Log.d(TAG, "Bottom Swipe"); } else { Log.d(TAG, "Bottom xFinger Swipe"); RemoteFragment.fingerCount = 1; } return true; } return true; } You could try to use OnTouchListener with MotionEvent.ACTION_POINTER_DOWN like this:
button.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() { public boolean onTouch(View view, MotionEvent motionEvent) { int action = motionEvent.getAction(); switch(action & MotionEvent.ACTION_MASK) { case MotionEvent.ACTION_POINTER_DOWN: Toast.makeText(MyActivity.this, " Two Fingers Tapped Once. Yeeeyy :)", 0).show(); // set the mTwoFingersTapped flag to TRUE when we tap with 2 fingers at once mTwoFingersTapped = true; break; } return false; } }); Here is a tutorial which explains how to do it if you need more details. I hope it will help.
I had made a library some time ago that makes implementing 1/multi finger swipes very easy.
You can find more detailed documentation of the API here A sample implementation can be found here
The part that you want to look at is
ImageView mv = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.myview); final TextView grtv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.gestureResultTextView); SimpleFingerGestures.DEBUG = true; SimpleFingerGestures.CONSUME_TOUCH_EVENTS = true; SimpleFingerGestures sfg = new SimpleFingerGestures(); sfg.setOnFingerGestureListener(new SimpleFingerGestures.OnFingerGestureListener() { @Override public boolean onSwipeUp(int fingers, long gestureDuration) { grtv.setText("swiped " + fingers + " up"); return false; } @Override public boolean onSwipeDown(int fingers, long gestureDuration) { grtv.setText("swiped " + fingers + " down"); return false; } @Override public boolean onSwipeLeft(int fingers, long gestureDuration) { grtv.setText("swiped " + fingers + " left"); return false; } @Override public boolean onSwipeRight(int fingers, long gestureDuration) { grtv.setText("swiped " + fingers + " right"); return false; } @Override public boolean onPinch(int fingers, long gestureDuration) { grtv.setText("pinch"); return false; } @Override public boolean onUnpinch(int fingers, long gestureDuration) { grtv.setText("unpinch"); return false; } }); mv.setOnTouchListener(sfg);
