WM_GESTURENOTIFY message

Applies to: desktop apps only

Gives you a chance to set the gesture configuration.

Parameters

wParam: Unused.
lParam: A pointer to a GESTURENOTIFYSTRUCT.

Return value

A value should be returned from DefWindowProc.

Remarks

When the WM_GESTURENOTIFY message is received, the application can use SetGestureConfig to specify the gestures to receive. This message should always be bubbled up using the DefWindowProc function.

Note Handling the WM_GESTURENOTIFY message will change the gesture configuration for the lifetime of the Window, not just for the next gesture.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable all gestures. For more examples, see SetGestureConfig.

C++

Copy



    switch (message)
    {
    case WM_GESTURENOTIFY:
        GESTURECONFIG gc = {0,GC_ALLGESTURES,0};
        BOOL bResult = SetGestureConfig(hWnd,0,1,&gc,sizeof(GESTURECONFIG));
            
        if(!bResult)
        {
            // an error
        }
        return DefWindowProc(hWnd, WM_GESTURENOTIFY, wParam, lParam);
    }
