TouchDelegate

public class TouchDelegate
extends Object

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.view.TouchDelegate


Helper class to handle situations where you want a view to have a larger touch area than its actual view bounds. The view whose touch area is changed is called the delegate view. This class should be used by an ancestor of the delegate. To use a TouchDelegate, first create an instance that specifies the bounds that should be mapped to the delegate and the delegate view itself.

The ancestor should then forward all of its touch events received in its onTouchEvent(MotionEvent) to onTouchEvent(MotionEvent).

Summary

Constants

int ABOVE

The touchable region of the View extends above its actual extent.

int BELOW

int TO_LEFT

The touchable region of the View extends to the left of its actual extent.

int TO_RIGHT

The touchable region of the View extends to the right of its actual extent.
