Devices and methods for processing inputs using gesture recognizers

Abstract:

An electronic device detects an input via an input device. In response to detecting the input, the device monitors the input using a gesture recognizer. The gesture recognizer includes a plurality of component gesture recognizers that define requirements for recognition of a gesture. A first component gesture recognizer from the plurality of component gesture recognizers defines a first requirement for recognition of the gesture, and a second component gesture recognizer from the plurality of component gesture recognizers defines a second requirement for recognition of the gesture. In accordance with a determination that the input satisfies first gesture recognition criteria that include the first requirement of the first component gesture recognizer and the second requirement of the second component gesture recognizer, the device recognizes a first gesture using the gesture recognizer.
