jQWidgets jqxTouch swipeleft Event

Last Updated : 14 Nov, 2021

jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. The jqxTouch is used for identifying and triggering touch events such as 'swipe', 'swipe left', 'swipe right', 'tap', and 'orientationchange' on touch-enabled devices.

The swipeleft Event is triggered when the user swipes towards the left side of the specified jqxTouch widgets.

Syntax:

$('#jqxTouch').on('swipeleft', function () { // Code section });
