Romain,
thanks for pointing out onInterceptTouchEvent()! I'll take a look at
that method ASAP.
As to the it was meant to be part of the UI design, I really wonder
why practically none of the apps shipped with Android use gestures
then (I mean, apart from scrolling up or down of course)? I can

We use gestures for scrolling: ListView, GridView, Gallery, MapView,
WebView, ScrollView. Calendar

Well, you can set a OnTouchListener on any view, including ListView,
and use a GestureDetector to detect horizontal flings. So, yes, I
guess. The problem with this whole touch mechanism in Android is that
child views can silently consume the touch gesture, so your fling will
not even propagate up
Doesn't look like fling support as known from the iPhone was ever
meant to be part of Android's UI design. Making your app react to
flings (or even detect them properly) is a messy and fragile procedure
in Android.

Hi,
Can you please tell me which method in ListView is handling the fling
action (up and down)?
I look at the source of ListView, I don't see a GestureDectector there.
Thanks. Is there a hook for application to get notified when users
perform a hort. fling?
I see code in AbsListView which handles the vertical fling, but i
don't know it does hort fling.
And why the OnScrollListener does not listen for hort. fling either?

What's a hort. fling? Horizontal? ListView does not need horizontal
flings and therefore does not detect them nor does it notify of them.

Thanks. Is it possible to put multiple ListViews inside a Gallery so
that I can have each ListView handles the vertical flings and the
Gallery handles horizontal flings (scrolls from 1 ListView to another
ListView).
Thank you again.
