Web/API/Element/MSGestureStart event

From Get docs


Non-standard This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.


The MSGestureStart event is fired when there's a new point of contact on the touch surface, thus starting a new gesture. When the gesture has ended, a MSGestureEnd event will be fired.

It is a proprietary event specific to Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer.
