public class

PenDelegate

extends Object
java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.view.PenDelegate

Class Overview

Helper class to handle situations where you want a view to have a larger pen touch area than its actual view bounds. The view whose pen touch area is changed is called the delegate view. This class should be used by an ancestor of the delegate. To use a PenDelegate, first create an instance that specifies the bounds that should be mapped to the delegate and the delegate view itself.

The ancestor should then forward all of its touch events received in its android.view.View.onPenEvent(MotionEvent) to PenDelegate.onPenEvent(MotionEvent)

Summary

Constants
int ABOVE The touchable region of the View extends above its actual extent.
int BELOW The touchable region of the View extends below its actual extent.
int TO_LEFT The touchable region of the View extends to the left of its actual extent.
int TO_RIGHT The touchable region of the View extends to the right of its actual extent.
