A sample using the popular Qt library is in the GestureWorks 2 install at: Samples\Qt Quick\GestureWorks. This sample using Qt Quick and has a QML MultiPointGestureArea class which can be used for Qt Quick applications.
A simpler C++ sample using Visual Studio and some basic helper classes for rendering is located at: Samples\C++\GestureWorks-tutorial-scene.
This sample is described in the tutorials below.
The following tutorials goes through adding GestureWorks to a C++ project. The starting code for this project is in the GestureWorks build at Samples\C++\GestureWorks-tutorial-start.
This project creates a blank scene with an image. We will look at how to have this image respond to gestures using GestureWorks.
Adding gestures will be done using two techniques. First we will look at setting up GestureWorks in the simpler screen mode and then in its scene mode.
Below is the main starting code for this project. The Re_* functions are in “render.h” and are simple rendering functions for DirectX to draw the image. We will not be modifying this base code, knowledge of the Windows API calls will not be required, as we will be only adding GestureWorks calls.
