SwipeDroid

Android swipe gesture detector. Create swipe listener for up, right, down and left.

Inspired from: http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/android-app-builder/use-androids-gesture-detector-to-translate-a-swipe-into-an-event/

How to:

Put on your Activity

private SwipeDetector sd = new SwipeDetector(this, new SwipeDetector.OnSwipeListener() {

	@Override
	public void onSwipeUp(float distance, float velocity) {
		tv.setText("Swipe Up");
		iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.up);
	}

	@Override
	public void onSwipeRight(float distance, float velocity) {
		tv.setText("Swipe Right");
		iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.right);
	}

	@Override
	public void onSwipeLeft(float distance, float velocity) {
		tv.setText("Swipe Left");
		iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.left);
	}

	@Override
	public void onSwipeDown(float distance, float velocity) {
		tv.setText("Swipe Down");
		iv.setImageResource(R.drawable.down);
	}
});

And set listener to

@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent me) {
	return sd.onTouch(null, me);
}
