QWidget Gestures Not Working

webzoid

I'm trying to handle gestures in my QWidgets application.

Having followed the following examples courtesy of Qt, I am not able to receive any gesture events (I'm using Qt 5.9.1):

http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/gestures-overview.html

I've overridden the event(QEvent *) function, implementing my own gestureEvent(QGestureEvent *) function as described in the example, as well as registering the QWidget for gestures in the constructor by using the grabGesture() function for pan, pinch and swipe gestures.

However, no gesture triggers the gestureEvent function in my widget.

@webzoid
are you sure your TouchScreen (driver) sends real touch events? Does it support multi-touch?
Many TouchScreens only support single touch points and simulate mouse events. Which do not trigger gesture events.
