1# PanGesture
2
3**PanGesture** is used to trigger a pan gesture when the movement distance of a finger on the screen reaches the minimum value.
4
5>  **NOTE**
6>
7>  This gesture is supported since API version 7. Updates will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.

12PanGesture(value?: { fingers?: number, direction?: PanDirection, distance?: number } | [PanGestureOptions](#pangestureoptions))

14**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.

16**Parameters**
17
18| Name| Type| Mandatory| Description|
19| -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- |
20| fingers | number | No| Minimum number of fingers to trigger a pan gesture. The value ranges from 1 to 10.<br>Default value: **1**<br>Value range: 1 to 10<br>**NOTE**<br>If the value is less than 1 or is not set, the default value is used.|
21| direction | [PanDirection](#pandirection) | No| Pan direction. The value supports the AND (&amp;) and OR (\|) operations.<br>Default value: **PanDirection.All**|
22| distance | number | No| Minimum pan distance to trigger the gesture, in vp.<br>Default value: **5**<br>**NOTE**<br>If a pan gesture and a [tab](ts-container-tabs.md) swipe occur at the same time, set **distance** to **1** to make the gesture more easily recognizable.<br>If the value specified is less than **0**, the default value **5** is used.|
23
24## PanDirection
25
26Enumerates the pan directions. Unlike **SwipeDirection**, **PanDirection** has no angular restrictions.
27
28**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.
29
30| Name| Description|
31| -------- | -------- |
32| All | All directions.|
33| Horizontal | Horizontal direction.|
34| Vertical | Vertical direction.|
35| Left | Leftward.|
36| Right | Rightward.|
37| Up | Upward.|
38| Down | Downward.|
39| None | Panning disabled.|

42## PanGestureOptions
43
44The attributes of the pan gesture recognizer can be dynamically modified using the **PanGestureOptions** API. This avoids modifying attributes through state variables, which will cause a UI re-render.
45
46PanGestureOptions(value?: { fingers?: number, direction?: PanDirection, distance?: number })
47
48**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.

55| direction | [PanDirection](#pandirection) | No  | Pan direction. The enumerated value supports the AND (&amp;) and OR (\|) operations.<br>Default value: **PanDirection.All**|
56| distance  | number                                | No  | Minimum pan distance to trigger the gesture, in vp.<br>Default value: **5**<br>**NOTE**<br>If a pan gesture and a [tab](ts-container-tabs.md) swipe occur at the same time, set **distance** to **1** to make the gesture more easily recognizable.<br>If the value specified is less than **0**, the default value **5** is used.<br>To avoid slow response and lagging during scrolling, set a reasonable pan distance.|
