Okay so I’m trying to figure out how to detect a mouse swipe?

Could anyone write an example code so I can learn and understand it, please?

Hi.
I took this out of code I use to drag camera with mouse. I’m learning Unity too, so there might be better ways.

if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) // check If left mousebutton is down

	mouseLastFramePosition = Camera.main.ScreenToViewportPoint(Input.mousePosition);
	// Gets mouse position in screen. 
	isDragging = true;
}


if (isDragging){

 		Vector3 mouseMovement = Camera.main.ScreenToViewportPoint(Input.mousePosition) - mouseLastFramePosition;
		// calculates how much mouse have moved between this and last frame

		mouseLastFramePosition = Camera.main.ScreenToViewportPoint(Input.mousePosition);
		// Stores mouse position for use in next frame
			
}

So mouseMovement variable would be used what ever you want to do with swipe. For example move someting:

objectToMove.tranform.Translate(mouseMovement, Space.World );`

if you want to move only in one axis:

objectToMove.tranform.Translate(mouseMovement.x, Space.World );`

Hope this helps
