gesture recognition.</p>
<p>Gesture recognizers are responsible for creating and managing
<a href="qgesture.html">QGesture</a> objects and monitoring input
events sent to <a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a> and <a href="qgraphicsobject.html">QGraphicsObject</a> subclasses.
QGestureRecognizer is the base class for implementing custom
gestures.</p>
<p>Developers that only need to provide gesture recognition for
standard gestures do not need to use this class directly. Instances
will be created behind the scenes by the framework.</p>
<p>For an overview of gesture handling in Qt and information on
using gestures in your applications, see the <a href="gestures-overview.html">Gestures Programming</a> document.</p>
<a id="recognizing-gestures" name="recognizing-gestures" />
<h3>Recognizing Gestures</h3>
<p>The process of recognizing gestures involves filtering input
events sent to specific objects, and modifying the associated
<a href="qgesture.html">QGesture</a> objects to include relevant
information about the user's input.</p>
<p>Gestures are created when the framework calls <a href="qgesturerecognizer.html#create">create</a>() to handle user input
for a particular instance of a <a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>
or <a href="qgraphicsobject.html">QGraphicsObject</a> subclass. A
<a href="qgesture.html">QGesture</a> object is created for each
widget or item that is configured to use gestures.</p>
<p>Once a <a href="qgesture.html">QGesture</a> has been created for
a target object, the gesture recognizer will receive events for it
in its <a href="qgesturerecognizer.html#recognize">recognize</a>()
handler function.</p>
<p>When a gesture is canceled, the <a href="qgesturerecognizer.html#reset">reset</a>() function is called,
giving the recognizer the chance to update the appropriate
properties in the corresponding <a href="qgesture.html">QGesture</a> object.</p>
<a id="supporting-new-gestures" name="supporting-new-gestures" />
<h3>Supporting New Gestures</h3>
<p>To add support for new gestures, you need to derive from
QGestureRecognizer to create a custom recognizer class, construct
an instance of this class, and register it with the application by
calling <a href="qgesturerecognizer.html#registerRecognizer">QGestureRecognizer.registerRecognizer</a>().
You can also subclass <a href="qgesture.html">QGesture</a> to
create a custom gesture class, or rely on dynamic properties to
express specific details of the gesture you want to handle.</p>
<p>Your custom QGestureRecognizer subclass needs to reimplement the
<a href="qgesturerecognizer.html#recognize">recognize</a>()
function to handle and filter the incoming input events for
<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a> and <a href="qgraphicsobject.html">QGraphicsObject</a> subclasses. Although the
logic for gesture recognition is implemented in this function, you
can store persistent information about the state of the recognition
process in the <a href="qgesture.html">QGesture</a> object
supplied. The <a href="qgesturerecognizer.html#recognize">recognize</a>() function must
return a value of <a href="qgesturerecognizer.html#ResultFlag-enum">QGestureRecognizer.Result</a>
that indicates the state of recognition for a given gesture and
target object. This determines whether or not a gesture event will
be delivered to a target object.</p>
<p>If you choose to represent a gesture by a custom <a href="qgesture.html">QGesture</a> subclass, you will need to reimplement
the <a href="qgesturerecognizer.html#create">create</a>() function
to construct instances of your gesture class. Similarly, you may
need to reimplement the <a href="qgesturerecognizer.html#reset">reset</a>() function if your custom
gesture objects need to be specially handled when a gesture is
canceled.</p>
<hr /><h2>Type Documentation</h2><h3 class="fn"><a name="ResultFlag-enum" />QGestureRecognizer.ResultFlag</h3><p>This enum describes the result of the current event filtering
step in a gesture recognizer state machine.</p>
<p>The result consists of a state value (one of Ignore,
MayBeGesture, TriggerGesture, FinishGesture, CancelGesture) and an
optional hint (ConsumeEventHint).</p>
