PointerEvent: tiltX property
The tiltX
read-only property of the
PointerEvent
interface is the angle (in degrees) between the Y-Z
plane of the pointer and the screen. This property is typically only useful for a
pen/stylus pointer type.
For an illustration of this property see Figure 2 in the specification.
Value
The angle in degrees between the Y-Z plane of the pointer (stylus) and the screen. The range of values is -90
to 90
, inclusive, where a positive value is a tilt to the right. For devices that do not support this property, the value is 0
.
Examples
This example illustrates simple accessing of the tiltX
and
tiltY
properties.
js
someElement.addEventListener(
"pointerdown",
(event) => {
process_tilt(event.tiltX, event.tiltY);
},
false
);
