Android Question How to Create a Gesture Typing

eurojam said:

here is a simple example which counts the taps on the grey panel:

B4X:

Sub Globals
    'These global variables will be redeclared each time the activity is created.
    'These variables can only be accessed from this module.

    Private Panel1 As Panel

    Private EditText1 As EditText
    Private t As Timer
    Private count As Int
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
    'Activity.LoadLayout("1")
    Panel1.Initialize("Panel1")
    EditText1.Initialize("EditText1")
    Panel1.Color=Colors.LightGray
    EditText1.TextSize=20
    Activity.AddView(Panel1,0,0,100%x,50%y)
    Activity.AddView(EditText1,0,75%y,100dip,40dip)


    t.Initialize("timer1", 1000) 'max time (milisecs) between taps which will be counted

End Sub

Sub Panel1_Touch (Action As Int, X As Float, Y As Float)
    Log(Action & " x=" & x & " y=" & Y)

    If Action = 1 Then
        If t.Enabled Then
            count = count + 1
            t.Enabled=True
        Else
          count = 1        
          t.Enabled=True
        End If
    End If
End Sub
Sub timer1_tick
    t.Enabled=False
    EditText1.Text = "Taps " & count
End Sub
