How to disable or enable swipe gesture in MeeGo (N9 / N950)

[aleksi.hanninen]

I need documentation or code examples about how to disable or enable swipe gesture in MeeGo (N9 / N950).

Further, in http://www.developer.nokia.com/Commu...y_requirements, it is said that: "Does not interfere with device functionalities (such as use of Swipe and Lock screen) or other applications ". In some other page, which I can't currently find (but which presumably was somewhere in the site http://www.developer.nokia.com/swipe/ux/), it was said that you can disable it, but you should show a hint when it is enabled again.

This leads to a further question: Is it ok to prevent swipe for apps released in Ovi (or Nokia) Store, and in what conditions?

How to lock is described at http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/docs/...wipe_lock.html

(note: in the near future, a dedicated QML API for this might be published)

It's OK to lock if it would interfere with how you interact with the application, but of course you should then provide your own means of pausing/exiting the application. Ideally, you would re-enable the swipe as soon as the (say) game is paused or in a menu.
