TapGestureRecognizer class

Recognizes taps.

Gesture recognizers take part in gesture arenas to enable potential gestures to be disambiguated from each other. This process is managed by a GestureArenaManager (q.v.).

TapGestureRecognizer considers all the pointers involved in the pointer event sequence as contributing to one gesture. For this reason, extra pointer interactions during a tap sequence are not recognized as additional taps. For example, down-1, down-2, up-1, up-2 produces only one tap on up-1.

The lifecycle of events for a tap gesture is as follows:

  • onTapDown, which triggers after a short timeout (deadline) even if the gesture has not won its arena yet.
  • onTapUp and onTap, which trigger when the pointer is released if the gesture wins the arena.
  • onTapCancel, which triggers instead of onTapUp and onTap in the case of the gesture not winning the arena.

Constructors

TapGestureRecognizer({Object debugOwner })
Creates a tap gesture recognizer.

Properties

debugDescription → String
Returns a very short pretty description of the gesture that the recognizer looks for, like 'tap' or 'horizontal drag'.
read-only, override
onTap ↔ GestureTapCallback
A tap has occurred. [...]
read / write
onTapCancel ↔ GestureTapCancelCallback
The pointer that previously triggered onTapDown will not end up causing a tap. [...]
read / write
onTapDown ↔ GestureTapDownCallback
A pointer that might cause a tap has contacted the screen at a particular location. [...]
read / write
onTapUp ↔ GestureTapUpCallback
A pointer that will trigger a tap has stopped contacting the screen at a particular location. [...]
read / write
deadline → Duration
If non-null, the recognizer will call didExceedDeadline after this amount of time has elapsed since starting to track the primary pointer.
final, inherited
debugOwner → Object
The recognizer's owner. [...]
final, inherited
hashCode → int
The hash code for this object. [...]
read-only, inherited
initialPosition ↔ Offset
The global location at which the primary pointer contacted the screen.
read / write, inherited
primaryPointer ↔ int
The ID of the primary pointer this recognizer is tracking.
read / write, inherited
runtimeType → Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
read-only, inherited
state ↔ GestureRecognizerState
The current state of the recognizer. [...]
read / write, inherited
team ↔ GestureArenaTeam
The team that this recognizer belongs to, if any. [...]
read / write, inherited

Methods

acceptGesture(int pointer) → void

override
didExceedDeadline() → void

override
handlePrimaryPointer(PointerEvent event) → void

override
rejectGesture(int pointer) → void
Called when this member loses the arena for the given pointer id.
override
resolve(GestureDisposition disposition) → void
Resolves this recognizer's participation in each gesture arena with the given disposition.
override
addPointer(PointerDownEvent event) → void

inherited
debugDescribeChildren() → List<DiagnosticsNode>
Returns a list of DiagnosticsNode objects describing this node's children. [...]
inherited
didStopTrackingLastPointer(int pointer) → void
