Android - Gesture Detection (Swipe up/down) on particular view

Question

I am trying to implement the OnGestureListener in Android.
I have three TextViews in my layout.
What i am trying to achieve is to set Gesture Listener for two of the textViews .
Here is the layout -

    <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     android:id="@+id/rlMain"     android:layout_width="wrap_content"     android:layout_height="wrap_content" >      <TextView         android:id="@+id/tvOne"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"         android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"         android:layout_marginTop="5dp"         android:gravity="center"         android:text="One" />      <TextView         android:id="@+id/tvTwo"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:layout_below="@+id/tvOne"         android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"         android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"         android:layout_marginTop="5dp"         android:gravity="center"         android:text="Two" />      <TextView         android:id="@+id/tvThree"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="wrap_content"         android:layout_below="@+id/tvTwo"         android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"         android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"         android:layout_marginTop="5dp"         android:gravity="center"         android:text="Three" />  </RelativeLayout> 

And here is the activity

    import android.app.Activity;     import android.os.Bundle;     import android.util.Log;     import android.view.GestureDetector;     import android.view.GestureDetector.OnGestureListener;     import android.view.MotionEvent;      public class TimeActivity extends Activity implements OnGestureListener {      GestureDetector gestureScanner;      @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")     @Override     public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);         setContentView(R.layout.wheelview);         gestureScanner = new GestureDetector(this);      }      @Override     public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {         // TODO Auto-generated method stub         return gestureScanner.onTouchEvent(event);     }      @Override     public boolean onDown(MotionEvent e) {         // TODO Auto-generated method stub         return true;     }      @Override     public boolean onFling(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float velocityX,             float velocityY) {         // TODO Auto-generated method stub         Log.i("Test", "On Fling");         return true;     }      @Override     public void onLongPress(MotionEvent e) {         // TODO Auto-generated method stub      }      @Override     public boolean onScroll(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float distanceX,             float distanceY) {         // TODO Auto-generated method stub         return false;     }      @Override     public void onShowPress(MotionEvent e) {         // TODO Auto-generated method stub      }      @Override     public boolean onSingleTapUp(MotionEvent e) {         // TODO Auto-generated method stub         return false;     } } 

At present Fling for all the three textviews is getting called .
Is there any way through which i can set the Gesture Listener for some particular views in the layout.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Do this in your onCreate method.

findViewById(R.id.tvOne).setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {              @Override            public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event){                 return gestureScanner.onTouchEvent(event);            }   });
