jQuery Fancy Gestures

jQuery Fancy Gestures is a JavaScript port of the fantastic MouseGesture ActionScript 3 class.

The plugin works the same way as the original class, using a combination between a list of predefined 8-directions gesture sequences and the Levenshtein algorithm to detect what gesture the user was trying to reproduce.

The plugin comes with the alphabet letters already predefined, but developers can also easily create custom gestures which they can use to support custom actions and controls for their applications.

jQuery Fancy Gestures works in all browsers and will enable developers to trigger custom JS functions whenever a gesture is drawn by the user and recognized by the plugin.

A demo is included with the download package.

Requirements:

• JavaScript enabled on client side
• jQuery
• JavaScript VectorGraphics Library
