onTouchevent and onLongclicklistner both are not working on textview-CodePudding

In my activity only Long click listener is working fine but not touch event. How can we use both events on same textview.

       textView.setOnLongClickListener(new View.OnLongClickListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onLongClick(View view) {
                Toast.makeText(Reminder.this,"press long on the screen", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                return false;
            }
        });

code for swiping event

    @SuppressLint("SetTextI18n")
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent touchEvent) {
        switch (touchEvent.getAction()) {

            case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
                x1 = touchEvent.getX();
                break;
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
                x2 = touchEvent.getX();
                if (x1>x2){
                //do something
                     return false;

                }
                  if (x1 < x2) {
              //do something
                     return false;

                }


                break;
        }

        return true;
    }

just add this code in your onCreate method . It will for both setOnLongClickListener and swiping events.

        final GestureDetector gesturedt= new GestureDetector(Reminder.this, new GestureDetector.SimpleOnGestureListener(){


            //method for double tap


            @Override
            public boolean onDoubleTap(MotionEvent e) {

                //your action here for double tap e.g.
                //Log.d("OnDoubleTapListener", "onDoubleTap");

                return true;
            }

            @Override
            public void onLongPress(MotionEvent e) {
                super.onLongPress(e);
                // here is your long click event 
            }

            @Override
            public boolean onDoubleTapEvent(MotionEvent e) {
                return true;
            }

            @Override
            public boolean onDown(MotionEvent e) {
                return true;
            }


        });

 
        textView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                switch (event.getAction()) {

                    case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
                        x1 = event.getX();
                        break;
                    case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
                        x2 = event.getX();
                        if (x1>x2){
                //do something
                        }

                        if (x1 < x2) {
                            //do something

                            }
                            return false;

                        }


                        break;
                }


                return gesturedt.onTouchEvent(event);
            }
        });

So it's possible the onTouchEvent listener is overriding what would normally get caught in the onLongClick. If the onTouchEvent still works, I'd suggest just including code there to handle long clicks as well.

For example:

    textView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            if (event.getAction() ==
                    MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
                long eventDuration = event.getEventTime() - event.getDownTime();
                if (eventDuration > 2000) {
                    if (gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(event)) {
                        //Do something for long clicks here;
                    } 
                }
            }
            return false;
        }
    });
