How can I fire an alert in a Mac OS X App that occurs when a swipe or pinch happens. The alert will state the direction of the swipe and if a pinch then if it is a pinch in or a pinch out
Apple's Documentation on handling trackpad events is quite informative. You need to look at the swipeWithEvent:(NSEvent *)event
method, and the magnifyWithEvent:(NSEvent *)event
method. They give clear examples of what you can do with these methods and how to implement them. I made this really quickly, so this code has not been tested. But you would need to do something like this. I would suggest you read the entire article then create your own code.
- (void)swipeWithEvent:(NSEvent *)event {
CGFloat x = [event deltaX];
CGFloat y = [event deltaY];
NSString *msg = @"";
if (x != 0) {
msg = (x > 0) ? @"Left Swipe" : @"Right Swipe";
}
if (y != 0) {
msg = (y > 0) ? @"Up Swipe" : @"Down Swipe";
}
[self displayWithMessage:msg];
}
- (void)magnifyWithEvent:(NSEvent *)event {
NSString *msg = @"";
if([event magnification] > 0) {
msg = @"Pinch In";
}
else if ([event magnification] < 0) {
msg = @"Pinch Out";
}
[self displayWithMessage:msg];
}
-(void) displayWithMessage:(NSString *)message {
NSAlert *alert = [[NSAlert alloc] init];
[alert setAlertStyle:NSInformationalAlertStyle];
[alert setMessageText:@"Gesture Notification"];
[alert setInformativeText:message];
[alert runModal];
}
