Controls how gestures are handled on the map.
See https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/reference/map#MapOptions.gestureHandling.
| Usage | Returns | Map.setGestureHandling(option) | |
| Argument | Type | Details | option | String | The option that controls how gestures are handled on the map. Allowed values:
- "cooperative": Scroll events and one-finger touch gestures scroll the page, and do not zoom or pan the map. Two-finger touch gestures pan and zoom the map. Scroll events with a ctrl key or ⌘ key pressed zoom the map. In this mode the map cooperates with the page.
- "greedy": All touch gestures and scroll events pan or zoom the map.
- "none": The map cannot be panned or zoomed by user gestures.
- "auto": (default) Gesture handling is either cooperative or greedy, depending on whether the page is scrollable or in an iframe.

[null,null,["Last updated 2024-02-20 UTC."],[],["The `Map.setGestureHandling(option)` method controls map gesture behavior. The `option` argument, a string, determines how the map interacts with user gestures. \"cooperative\" mode allows page scrolling with single-finger or scroll events while reserving two-finger gestures for map manipulation. \"greedy\" mode assigns all touch and scroll actions to the map. \"none\" disables map panning/zooming via gestures. \"auto\" (default) switches between cooperative and greedy modes.\n"]]
