Class EnhancedTouchSupport

API to control enhanced touch facilities like Touch that are not enabled by default.

Inheritance

Object

EnhancedTouchSupport

Namespace: UnityEngine.InputSystem.EnhancedTouch

Syntax

public static class EnhancedTouchSupport

Remarks

Enhanced touch support provides automatic finger tracking and touch history recording. It is an API designed for polling, i.e. for querying touch state directly in methods such as MonoBehaviour.Update. Enhanced touch support cannot be used in combination with InputActions though both can be used side-by-side.

public class MyBehavior : MonoBehaviour
{
    protected void OnEnable()
    {
        EnhancedTouchSupport.Enable();
    }

    protected void OnDisable()
    {
        EnhancedTouchSupport.Disable();
    }

    protected void Update()
    {
        var activeTouches = Touch.activeTouches;
        for (var i = 0; i < activeTouches.Count; ++i)
            Debug.Log("Active touch: " + activeTouches[i]);
    }
}

Properties

enabled

Whether enhanced touch support is currently enabled.

Declaration

public static bool enabled { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	True if EnhancedTouch support has been enabled.

Methods

Disable()

Disable enhanced touch support.

Declaration

public static void Disable()

Remarks

This method only undoes a single call to Enable().

Enable()

Enable enhanced touch support.

Declaration

public static void Enable()

Remarks

Calling this method is necessary to enable the functionality provided by Touch and Finger. These APIs add extra processing to touches and are thus disabled by default.

Calls to Enable and Disable() balance each other out. If Enable is called repeatedly, it will take as many calls to Disable() to disable the system again.
