How do you use TouchSwipe event on a Gui?
I see that a GuiObject has a set of standard Touch Screen events, such as TouchLongPress, TouchSwipe, TouchPinch, etc.
However, I'm not sure these events are actually functional... At least in the way I am using them.
I put this code in a LocalScript that is the child of a Imageless ImageLabel:
script.Parent.TouchSwipe:connect(function()
script.Parent.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0,0,0)
wait(1)
script.Parent.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(255,255,255)
end)
This simply changes the color of the GUI to black and then white when I swipe the GUI to tell me that the event fired.
However, when I tested this on my mobile phone, I got no feedback, no color change, no event, no nothing. I believe I'm swiping correctly

maybe add a function
local function onSwipe(touchSwipe, touchCount)
local trigger = false
if touchSwipe == Enum.SwipeDirection.Left then
trigger = true
elseif touchSwipe == Enum.SwipeDirection.Right then
--some code here if you like
--also don’t write this if you need more than 1 directions, plus you can write up to 4 directions too
end
if trigger then
script.Parent.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0,0,0)
wait(1)
script.Parent.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(255,255,255)
end
end
now we add the connect function now
script.Parent.TouchSwipe:connect(onSwipe)
Fun fact: the enum has a value from: 0 to 4 (4 is none) Use any of these directions if you like so
Enum.SwipeDirection.Left Enum.SwipeDirection.Right Enum.SwipeDirection.Up Enum.SwipeDirection.Down
Tell me if it didn’t work. Oh plus it’s “:Connect()” not “:connect()” (<— if it helped, uhhh wait what)
