### Class

# Gtk GestureSwipe

#### Description [src]

    final class Gtk.GestureSwipe : Gtk.GestureSingle
    {
      /* No available fields */
    }

`GtkGestureSwipe` is a `GtkGesture` for swipe gestures.

After a press/move/…/move/release sequence happens, the `GtkGestureSwipe::swipe` signal will be emitted, providing the velocity and directionality of the sequence at the time it was lifted.

If the velocity is desired in intermediate points, `gtk_gesture_swipe_get_velocity()` can be called in a `GtkGesture::update` handler.

All velocities are reported in pixels/sec units.
