cancel

public void cancel()

The result of a call to this method is equivalent to processTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent) receiving an ACTION_CANCEL event.

abort

public void abort()

cancel(), but also abort all motion in progress and snap to the end of any animation.

smoothSlideViewTo

public boolean smoothSlideViewTo(android.view.View child,
                                 int finalLeft,
                                 int finalTop)

Animate the view child to the given (left, top) position. If this method returns true, the caller should invoke continueSettling(boolean) on each subsequent frame to continue the motion until it returns false. If this method returns false there is no further work to do to complete the movement.

This operation does not count as a capture event, though getCapturedView() will still report the sliding view while the slide is in progress.

Parameters:

child - Child view to capture and animate

finalLeft - Final left position of child

finalTop - Final top position of child

Returns:

true if animation should continue through continueSettling(boolean) calls

settleCapturedViewAt

public boolean settleCapturedViewAt(int finalLeft,
                                    int finalTop)

Settle the captured view at the given (left, top) position. The appropriate velocity from prior motion will be taken into account. If this method returns true, the caller should invoke continueSettling(boolean) on each subsequent frame to continue the motion until it returns false. If this method returns false there is no further work to do to complete the movement.

Parameters:

finalLeft - Settled left edge position for the captured view

finalTop - Settled top edge position for the captured view

Returns:

true if animation should continue through continueSettling(boolean) calls

flingCapturedView

public void flingCapturedView(int minLeft,
                              int minTop,
                              int maxLeft,
                              int maxTop)

Settle the captured view based on standard free-moving fling behavior. The caller should invoke continueSettling(boolean) on each subsequent frame to continue the motion until it returns false.

Parameters:

minLeft - Minimum X position for the view's left edge

minTop - Minimum Y position for the view's top edge

maxLeft - Maximum X position for the view's left edge

maxTop - Maximum Y position for the view's top edge

continueSettling

public boolean continueSettling(boolean deferCallbacks)

Move the captured settling view by the appropriate amount for the current time. If continueSettling returns true, the caller should call it again on the next frame to continue.

Parameters:

deferCallbacks - true if state callbacks should be deferred via posted message. Set this to true if you are calling this method from View.computeScroll() or similar methods invoked as part of layout or drawing.

Returns:

true if settle is still in progress

isPointerDown

public boolean isPointerDown(int pointerId)

Check if the given pointer ID represents a pointer that is currently down (to the best of the ViewDragHelper's knowledge).

The state used to report this information is populated by the methods shouldInterceptTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent) or processTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent). If one of these methods has not been called for all relevant MotionEvents to track, the information reported by this method may be stale or incorrect.

Parameters:

pointerId - pointer ID to check; corresponds to IDs provided by MotionEvent

Returns:

true if the pointer with the given ID is still down

canScroll

protected boolean canScroll(android.view.View v,
                            boolean checkV,
                            int dx,
                            int dy,
                            int x,
                            int y)

Tests scrollability within child views of v given a delta of dx.

Parameters:

v - View to test for horizontal scrollability

checkV - Whether the view v passed should itself be checked for scrollability (true), or just its children (false).

dx - Delta scrolled in pixels along the X axis

dy - Delta scrolled in pixels along the Y axis

x - X coordinate of the active touch point

y - Y coordinate of the active touch point

Returns:

true if child views of v can be scrolled by delta of dx.

shouldInterceptTouchEvent

public boolean shouldInterceptTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent ev)

Check if this event as provided to the parent view's onInterceptTouchEvent should cause the parent to intercept the touch event stream.

Parameters:

ev - MotionEvent provided to onInterceptTouchEvent

Returns:

true if the parent view should return true from onInterceptTouchEvent

processTouchEvent

public void processTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent ev)

Process a touch event received by the parent view. This method will dispatch callback events as needed before returning. The parent view's onTouchEvent implementation should call this.

Parameters:

ev - The touch event received by the parent view

checkTouchSlop

public boolean checkTouchSlop(int directions)

Check if any pointer tracked in the current gesture has crossed the required slop threshold.

This depends on internal state populated by shouldInterceptTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent) or processTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent). You should only rely on the results of this method after all currently available touch data has been provided to one of these two methods.

Parameters:

directions - Combination of direction flags, see DIRECTION_HORIZONTAL, DIRECTION_VERTICAL, DIRECTION_ALL

Returns:

true if the slop threshold has been crossed, false otherwise

checkTouchSlop

public boolean checkTouchSlop(int directions,
                              int pointerId)

Check if the specified pointer tracked in the current gesture has crossed the required slop threshold.

This depends on internal state populated by shouldInterceptTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent) or processTouchEvent(android.view.MotionEvent). You should only rely on the results of this method after all currently available touch data has been provided to one of these two methods.

Parameters:

directions - Combination of direction flags, see DIRECTION_HORIZONTAL, DIRECTION_VERTICAL, DIRECTION_ALL

pointerId - ID of the pointer to slop check as specified by MotionEvent

Returns:

true if the slop threshold has been crossed, false otherwise

isEdgeTouched

public boolean isEdgeTouched(int edges)

Check if any of the edges specified were initially touched in the currently active gesture. If there is no currently active gesture this method will return false.

Parameters:

edges - Edges to check for an initial edge touch. See EDGE_LEFT, EDGE_TOP, EDGE_RIGHT, EDGE_BOTTOM and EDGE_ALL

Returns:

true if any of the edges specified were initially touched in the current gesture

isEdgeTouched

public boolean isEdgeTouched(int edges,
                             int pointerId)

Check if any of the edges specified were initially touched by the pointer with the specified ID. If there is no currently active gesture or if there is no pointer with the given ID currently down this method will return false.

Parameters:

edges - Edges to check for an initial edge touch. See EDGE_LEFT, EDGE_TOP, EDGE_RIGHT, EDGE_BOTTOM and EDGE_ALL

Returns:

true if any of the edges specified were initially touched in the current gesture
