touch listener takes precedence over listscroll listener

Question

I have got a horizontal list with swipe dismiss working except the swipe dismiss takes precendence over scrolling ie if I swipe from left to right but on the slightest angle it will think that im trying to swipe dismiss an item instead of scrolling the list along. I think the easiest approach to this would be to have it the other way around but have no idea how to change it or if there is a better way

I've modified Lucas Rocha's twowayview and Roman Nurik/Tim Roes swipedismissundolist

I'm not sure if all this code is where i should be looking but from what i can tell it's relevant.

mainactivity

   listView = (TwoWayView) findViewById(R.id.listView1);


    //need to add in emptyview and list view to show and gone them when emtpy/full


   imageAdapter = new ImageAdapter(this, products,emptyview,listView);


    listView.setAdapter(imageAdapter);


    VSwipeDismissList.OnDismissCallback callback = new VSwipeDismissList.OnDismissCallback() {
        @Override
        public VSwipeDismissList.Undoable onDismiss(AbsListView listView, final int position) {
            // Delete the item from your adapter (sample code):

            imageAdapter.remove(position);
            return null;

            }

    };

swipedismiss

Answer 1

I found a pretty much duplicate question here

i added the action down and action move code to the onTouch method of swipedismiss

     @Override
   public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
    switch (ev.getAction()) {
    case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
        xDistance = yDistance = 0f;
        lastX = ev.getX();
        lastY = ev.getY();
        break;
    case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
        final float curX = ev.getX();
        final float curY = ev.getY();
        xDistance += Math.abs(curX - lastX);
        yDistance += Math.abs(curY - lastY);
        lastX = curX;
        lastY = curY;
        if(xDistance > yDistance)
            return false;
}
