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.

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.

TapGestureRecognizer competes on pointer events of kPrimaryButton only when it has at least one non-null onTap* callback, on events of kSecondaryButton only when it has at least one non-null onSecondaryTap* callback, and on events of kTertiaryButton only when it has at least one non-null onTertiaryTap* callback. If it has no callbacks, it is a no-op.

The allowedButtonsFilter argument only gives this recognizer the ability to limit the buttons it accepts. It does not provide the ability to recognize any buttons beyond the ones it already accepts: kPrimaryButton, kSecondaryButton or kTertiaryButton. Therefore, a combined value of kPrimaryButton & kSecondaryButton would be ignored, but kPrimaryButton | kSecondaryButton would be allowed, as long as only one of them is selected at a time.

Constructors

TapGestureRecognizer({Object? debugOwner, Set<PointerDeviceKind>? supportedDevices, AllowedButtonsFilter allowedButtonsFilter = _defaultButtonAcceptBehavior})
Creates a tap gesture recognizer.

Properties

allowedButtonsFilter AllowedButtonsFilter
Called when interaction starts. This limits the dragging behavior for custom clicks (such as scroll click). Its parameter comes from PointerEvent.buttons.
finalinherited
deadline Duration?
If non-null, the recognizer will call didExceedDeadline after this amount of time has elapsed since starting to track the primary pointer.
finalinherited
debugDescription String
Returns a very short pretty description of the gesture that the recognizer looks for, like 'tap' or 'horizontal drag'.
no setteroverride
debugOwner Object?
The recognizer's owner.
finalinherited
gestureSettings DeviceGestureSettings?
Optional device specific configuration for device gestures that will take precedence over framework defaults.
getter/setter pairinherited
hashCode int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
initialPosition OffsetPair?
The location at which the primary pointer contacted the screen.
no setterinherited
onSecondaryTap GestureTapCallback?
A pointer has stopped contacting the screen, which is recognized as a tap of a secondary button.
getter/setter pair
onSecondaryTapCancel GestureTapCancelCallback?
A pointer that previously triggered onSecondaryTapDown will not end up causing a tap.
getter/setter pair
onSecondaryTapDown GestureTapDownCallback?
A pointer has contacted the screen at a particular location with a secondary button, which might be the start of a secondary tap.
getter/setter pair
onSecondaryTapUp GestureTapUpCallback?
A pointer has stopped contacting the screen at a particular location, which is recognized as a tap of a secondary button.
getter/setter pair
onTap GestureTapCallback?
A pointer has stopped contacting the screen, which is recognized as a tap of a primary button.
getter/setter pair
onTapCancel GestureTapCancelCallback?
A pointer that previously triggered onTapDown will not end up causing a tap.
getter/setter pair
onTapDown GestureTapDownCallback?
A pointer has contacted the screen at a particular location with a primary button, which might be the start of a tap.
getter/setter pair
onTapUp GestureTapUpCallback?
A pointer has stopped contacting the screen at a particular location, which is recognized as a tap of a primary button.
getter/setter pair
onTertiaryTapCancel GestureTapCancelCallback?
A pointer that previously triggered onTertiaryTapDown will not end up causing a tap.
getter/setter pair
onTertiaryTapDown GestureTapDownCallback?
A pointer has contacted the screen at a particular location with a tertiary button, which might be the start of a tertiary tap.
getter/setter pair
onTertiaryTapUp GestureTapUpCallback?
A pointer has stopped contacting the screen at a particular location, which is recognized as a tap of a tertiary button.
getter/setter pair
postAcceptSlopTolerance double?
The maximum distance in logical pixels the gesture is allowed to drift after the gesture has been accepted.
finalinherited
preAcceptSlopTolerance double?
The maximum distance in logical pixels the gesture is allowed to drift from the initial touch down position before the gesture is accepted.
finalinherited
primaryPointer int?
The ID of the primary pointer this recognizer is tracking.
no setterinherited
runtimeType Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited
state GestureRecognizerState
The current state of the recognizer.
no setterinherited
supportedDevices Set<PointerDeviceKind>?
The kind of devices that are allowed to be recognized as provided by supportedDevices in the constructor, or the currently deprecated kind. These cannot both be set. If both are null, events from all device kinds will be tracked and recognized.
getter/setter pairinherited
team GestureArenaTeam?
The team that this recognizer belongs to, if any.
