Do UIEvent and UIEventTypeMotion intercept shaking gesture only ?

Reading Apple documentationi found that UIEventTypeMotion is useful only to intercept Shake. It sounds weird... but the only subtype on a UIEventTypeMotion is UIEventTypeMotionShake. I can't understand how to use function - (void)motionBegan:(UIEventSubtype)motion withEvent:(UIEvent *)event in other way..

Solution

  • yep, at the moment the only motion gesture it recognises is shaking. by the looks of it apple will probably be adding more in the future, but we'll have to wait and see :)
