jQuery.event.special.swipedown

Event raised after a complete cycle of [[pointerstart jQuery Event|pointerstart]], [[pointermove jQuery Event|pointermove]], and [[pointerend jQuery Event|pointerend]] in which the velocity (distance of movement / duration between start and end) is greater than a minimum and the angle of the gesture was > 225 degrees and <= 315 degrees.

This is a shortcut event which is raised after the generic [[swipe jQuery Event|swipe]] event that also includes the direction.

Useful as a shortcut for an action, though panning can be a better option for realtime, tracked, movement of a touched element.

Bubbles and can be delegated against.

Usage

$(element).on('swipedown', function(e){
    // handle event...
});
