Class SwipeRightEvent


public class SwipeRightEvent extends TouchEvent
Represents a rightward swipe gesture event that occurs when a user swipes from left to right on a touch-enabled device.

This event is fired when the user makes a rapid sliding gesture from left to right across a touch surface. It extends TouchEvent as it is part of the touch interaction framework and is dispatched to registered TouchListener instances for processing. This event is commonly used for navigation, such as moving to the previous item in a carousel or revealing hidden content.

Features:

  • Detects rightward swipe gestures on touch devices
  • Part of the touch event framework
  • Enables directional navigation and interactions
  • Integrates with the touch event listener pattern

Usage:


 // Create a swipe right event
 SwipeRightEvent event = new SwipeRightEvent();

 // Dispatch to a listener to handle rightward swipes
 event.dispatchTo(myTouchListener);

 // Common use case: carousel navigation
 public void onEvent(SwipeRightEvent event) {
     System.out.println("Swiped right - showing previous item");
     showPreviousItem();
 }
