how to create a raw file of android gestures

Question

I have noticed in the android gesture examples, that it reads the gestures from the res/raw folder. it would be a great thing for my application to include a 'getting started' list of gestures. that way a user can use the app without having to train it for their own personal gestures. i would even expect that the majority of users would be happy to use a default set of gestures.

however, i cannot figure out how to generate that initial set of gestures that i would include in the res/raw folder of my application.

anyone have ideas of how to create this file or where to look for more info?

Answer 1

Use the Gestures Builder tool.

UPDATE: Apparently, that tool no longer exists, sorry.

I guess that I just need to read 'with comprehension'... "Every time you add or edit a gesture in the Gestures Builder, a file is generated on the emulator's SD card, /sdcard/gestures. This file contains the description of all the gestures, and you will need to package it inside your application inside the resources directory, in /res/raw." – Joletta
