πŸ¦‹ Detailed Description πŸ¦‹

a hold gesture object. no cap, that’s the whole vibe.

A hold gesture object notifies a client about a single- or multi-finger hold gesture detected on an indirect input device such as a touchpad. The gesture is usually initiated by one or more fingers being held down without significant movement. The precise conditions of when such a gesture is detected are implementation-dependent. iykyk, that part is very β€œask your compositor.”

In particular, this gesture may be used to cancel kinetic scrolling. obsessed with that use case honestly 🫢

A hold gesture consists of two stages: begin and end. Unlike pinch and swipe there is no update stage. There cannot be multiple simultaneous hold, pinch or swipe gestures on a same pointer/seat, how compositors prevent these situations is implementation-dependent. literally the protocol said β€œone at a time, bestie.”

A gesture may be cancelled by the compositor or the hardware. Clients should not consider performing permanent or irreversible actions until the end of a gesture has been received. this is the important safety tea β˜• β€” do not do anything permanent before end, fr fr.

🫢 void zwp_pointer_gesture_hold_v1_t::begin (uint32_t serial, uint32_t time, surface_t const & surface, uint32_t fingers, bool post = true)

multi-finger hold begin.

Parameters

  • serial
  • time β€” timestamp with millisecond granularity
  • surface
  • fingers β€” number of fingers

This event is sent when a hold gesture is detected on the device.

Definition at line 5727 of file wayland-server-protocol-unstable.cpp.

🫢 bool zwp_pointer_gesture_hold_v1_t::can_begin () const

Check whether the begin function is available with the currently bound version of the protocol.

Definition at line 5732 of file wayland-server-protocol-unstable.cpp.

🫢 bool zwp_pointer_gesture_hold_v1_t::can_end () const

Check whether the end function is available with the currently bound version of the protocol.

Definition at line 5742 of file wayland-server-protocol-unstable.cpp.

🫢 void zwp_pointer_gesture_hold_v1_t::end (uint32_t serial, uint32_t time, int32_t cancelled, bool post = true)

multi-finger hold end.

Parameters

  • serial
  • time β€” timestamp with millisecond granularity
  • cancelled β€” 1 if the gesture was cancelled, 0 otherwise

This event is sent when a hold gesture ceases to be valid. This may happen when the holding fingers are lifted or the gesture is cancelled, for example if the fingers move past an implementation-defined threshold, the finger count changes or the hold gesture changes into a different type of gesture.

When a gesture is cancelled, the client may need to undo state changes caused by this gesture. What causes a gesture to be cancelled is implementation-dependent.

🫢 std::string wayland::server::resource_t::get_class () [inherited]

Retrieve the interface name (class) of a resource object.

Returns Interface name of the resource object.

🫢 client_t wayland::server::resource_t::get_client () const [inherited]

Get the associated client.

Returns the client that owns the resource.

🫢 uint32_t wayland::server::resource_t::get_id () const [inherited]

Get the internal ID of the resource.

Returns the internal ID of the resource.

🫢 unsigned int wayland::server::resource_t::get_version () const [inherited]

Get interface version.

Returns Interface version this resource has been constructed with.

🫢 std::function< void()> & zwp_pointer_gesture_hold_v1_t::on_destroy ()

destroy the hold gesture object.

Definition at line 5721 of file wayland-server-protocol-unstable.cpp.

🫢 void wayland::server::resource_t::post_no_memory () const [inherited]

Post "not enough memory" error to the client.

If the compositor has not enough memory to fulfill a certail request of the client, this function can be called to notify the client of this circumstance.

🫢 bool wayland::server::resource_t::proxy_has_object () const [inherited]

Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.

Returns true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty.
