While each of those components provides some of the functionality that I need, 
they are not as well suited as GestureArea. This is due to the fact that I want 
to support multiple gestures on a custom QQuickItem: tap, tapAndHold, pan (one 
finger drag), pinch (two finger drag). This is rather cumbersome with the 
current components, whereas it sould be trivial with GestureArea. In addition 
to that, while I don't currently make use if it, GestureArea provides the 
ability to use custom gesture recognizers, which I believe none of the 3 
current components support.

Have you looked at the photosurface example?  It doesn’t do the tap-and-hold 
part, but that wouldn’t be too hard to add.  Single-finger pan in that example 
depends on touching the background rather than any of the photo objects.


I think MouseArea, PinchArea and MultiPointTouchArea are very useful, but they 
are not really a good replacement for GestureArea.

Hi Peter,

I think the functionality of the type was split among MouseArea, 
PinchArea<http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtquick-pincharea.html> and 
MultiPointTouchArea<http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtquick-multipointtoucharea.html>.
 Take a look at them and see if they fit your use case.

Bests,
F.

Hello,

I could really use a QML element that can detect arbitrary gestures. It seems 
that in Qt4, GestureArea used to do just that:

http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/qml-gesturearea.html

However, it appears that in Qt5, it has been removed. What was the rationale 
for that? Are there any chances of it making a return?

Best regards,
kloffy
