BaseTapGestureRecognizer class Null safety

A base class for gesture recognizers that recognize 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.

A tap is defined as a sequence of events that starts with a down, followed by optional moves, then ends with an up. All move events must contain the same buttons as the down event, and must not be too far from the initial position. The gesture is rejected on any violation, a cancel event, or if any other recognizers wins the arena. It is accepted only when it is the last member of the arena.

The BaseTapGestureRecognizer 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.

The BaseTapGestureRecognizer can not be directly used, since it does not define which buttons to accept, or what to do when a tap happens. If you want to build a custom tap recognizer, extend this class by overriding isPointerAllowed and the handler methods.

  • TapGestureRecognizer, a ready-to-use tap recognizer that recognizes taps of the primary button and taps of the secondary button.
  • ModalBarrier, a widget that uses a custom tap recognizer that accepts any buttons.

Constructors

BaseTapGestureRecognizer({Object? debugOwner, Set<PointerDeviceKind>? supportedDevices})
Creates a tap gesture recognizer.

Properties

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'.
read-onlyoverride
debugOwner → Object?
The recognizer's owner.
finalinherited
gestureSettings ↔ DeviceGestureSettings?
Optional device specific configuration for device gestures that will take precedence over framework defaults.
read / writeinherited
hashCode → int
The hash code for this object.
read-onlyinherited
initialPosition → OffsetPair?
The location at which the primary pointer contacted the screen.
read-onlyinherited
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.
read-onlyinherited
runtimeType → Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
read-onlyinherited
state → GestureRecognizerState
The current state of the recognizer.
read-onlyinherited
team ↔ GestureArenaTeam?
The team that this recognizer belongs to, if any.
