class Gdk.AxisUse(value)

Bases: GObject.GEnum

An enumeration describing the way in which a device axis (valuator) maps onto the predefined valuator types that GTK+ understands.

Note that the X and Y axes are not really needed; pointer devices report their location via the x/y members of events regardless. Whether X and Y are present as axes depends on the GDK backend.

IGNORE = 0

the axis is ignored.

X = 1

the axis is used as the x axis.

LAST = 10

a constant equal to the numerically highest axis value.

Y = 2

the axis is used as the y axis.

PRESSURE = 3

the axis is used for pressure information.

XTILT = 4

the axis is used for x tilt information.

YTILT = 5

the axis is used for y tilt information.

WHEEL = 6

the axis is used for wheel information.

A finished gesture may have 2 possible outcomes, an event with phase Gdk.TouchpadGesturePhase.END will be emitted when the gesture is considered successful, this should be used as the hint to perform any permanent changes.

Cancelled gestures may be so for a variety of reasons, due to hardware or the compositor, or due to the gesture recognition layers hinting the gesture did not finish resolutely (eg. a 3rd finger being added during a pinch gesture). In these cases, the last event will report the phase Gdk.TouchpadGesturePhase.CANCEL, this should be used as a hint to undo any visible/permanent changes that were done throughout the progress of the gesture.
