whats the simplest way to implement gesture controls. More specifically I want variables to be altered when the user swipes in certain directions.
There is a GestureListener in android... and it differentiates between a couple different gestures (single tap, double tap, fling, etc).
If you want something specific like... "user draws the letter e", you have to write some code to figure out pixels/movement/direction

I really would like to see (and pay) for a gesture launcher, utilizing the lower button bar. The whole area has a multitouch sensor, as described here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2511016
Besides the scroll-wheel no application uses these senors, so it will not interfere with any other program.
Wouldn't it be nice to tap (tap, not press) 3 times on the homebutton, and app#1 launches, or tap on each icon clock- or counterclockwise, etc ...
Anyone?

hey guys , one question does the kin two got multi touch ? i mean can you press two fingers at one time and both of them register correctly?!
thanks
Depends on what you mean by multi-touch. In certain Applications you can do a multi-touch to do a multi delete by pressing the "X" that pops up..and in the browser you can pinch to zoom in/out
Can Kin Two recognize coordinates of 2 fingers?
Real dulatouch...
Is there another way to do pinch zoom in/out?
Also, you can do this in the Camera App as well (both when taking a picture and viewing it later).
I assume that for the Kin to understand the pinch gesture, it has to recognize two fingers and their coordinates so that it can tell whether they are moving closer together or further apart.
One other example of multi-finger gestures on the Kin is that to configure your home screen apps or your favorites in the browser app, you do a two-finger tap to get into the arrange/delete mode and then two finger tap again when you are done moving & removing items.

The hardware can handle multiple touchscreen input at the same time. The software is limited though, in how it interprets that input. You can "two finger tap" the home page to rearrange the icons, pinch-zoom on pictures, webpages, etc.
I'm not saying it would ever happen, but IF the device were to have a fully multi-touch aware OS, like Android and its Apps, then it could handle the input properly.
When you swipe from bottom of the screen, it brings some social app,
i want to change that app to something else,
Actually i have tasker profile for voice commands,
i want when i swipe from bottom it should execute that tasker, task.
I'm only posting here because both devices involved are smartwatches.
I have 2 android 4.4 watches that have gestures built in. The lack of soft-keys on the device prompted the devs to add 2 gestures.
1. swiping right to left acts as a back key. However the gesture recognition causes my swipe keyboard to wig out as well as the homescreen to lock and drag a specific icon around the homescreen forever.
2. swiping left to right acts a menu key. Works okay but this unfortunately feels backwards to me. My last device I had custom gestures set up allowing recent apps key (replacing menu key in most devices) to be right to left.
Where in the stock rom/android aosp would you be able to edit this?
If not possible how can I block these gestures?
Pretty specific question, so any help would be appreciated.
I apologize if this is in the wrong section.

I Googled for this, but didn't turn up any relevant results. Lots of other junk, though.
When using the handwriting input method (keyboard), are there any gestures that you can make with the S Pen that do any editing functions? I know about the little "u" gesture that removes spaces between letters of recognized text. Anything like a gesture to go to a new line, or backspace, etc.?
