PanResponder onMoveShouldSetPanResponder delta not reset

Description

Delta is not reset between gestures when it returned false

PanResponder.create({
      onMoveShouldSetPanResponder(e, gesture) {
         const {dx, dy} = gesture
         return false
      },
})

That seems to be because none of the other callbacks are called and the inner state initial position isn't reset.

I'm currently fixing this with

function PanProvider({children}) {

 const capturedPositionRef = useRef(null);


   return <View onMoveShouldSetResponderCapture={({nativeEvent:{pageX, pageY}}) => {
     // don't do anything, just capture the initial position
     capturedPositionRef.current = {pageX, pageY}
      return false
  }}>
       <PanContext.Provider value={capturedPositionRef}>{children}</PanContext.Provider>
    </View>
}

export default function usePanResponderLock(direction: 'horizontal' | 'vertical') {
  // uses the provider initial position
  const captureGestureRef = usePanResponder();

  return useRef(
    PanResponder.create({
      onMoveShouldSetPanResponder({ nativeEvent: { pageX, pageY } }) {
        if (captureGestureRef.current) {
          const { pageX: startX, pageY: startY } = captureGestureRef.current;

          const dx = Math.abs(pageX - startX);
          const dy = Math.abs(pageY - startY);

          const dragging = dx > 2 || dy > 2;

          if (!dragging) return false;

          return direction === 'horizontal' ? dx > dy : dy > dx;
        }

        return false;
      },
      onPanResponderTerminationRequest() {
        return true;
      },
    }),
  ).current;
}

This is working well, but the delta should be fixed in RN

Steps to reproduce

Try looking for a horizontal gesture with dx > dy:

• from the top left corner, make a vertical gesture => delta's are correct, view is not a responder.
• make a new horizontal gesture from bottom left corner => delta y is the distance with the previous touch and delta x too => dy > dx even though it's a horizontal gesture

No response

Comienza con el reproductor de Snack enlazado y la ruta PanResponder.create/onMoveShouldSetPanResponder; sigue cómo se inicializan y conservan los deltas del gesto cuando el callback devuelve false, centrándote en Android. Se considera terminado cuando un gesto nuevo informa de los deltas desde su propio inicio incluso si el gesto anterior nunca se convirtió en responder, y el comportamiento del reproductor está corregido.
