\"a slingshot action\"

English to French Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) electronic devices
contexte

"The touch screen gesture may comprise a drag and release gesture and utilising the direction indicated by the user input may comprise interpreting the drag and release gesture as one of a drag and drop or slingshot action"

"If a user wanted to share or transfer a file (or any other content item) with another device, rather than directing user input toward the target device as described in previous examples, one could perform a 'slingshot' gesture where the file is provided user input away from the target device instead. If a file were originally located at the position of a notional slingshot , a user can drag the file back, as though it were attached by elastic material to that notional slingshot . For example, if a user dragged back a file to position , if a user released it then it would move in direction, assuming a slingshot-like behaviour, to device . Similarly, dragging back the file to position and releasing would result in it moving in direction towards device.

Suggestion.
Une traduction littérale me semble adaptée ici considérant que l'on décrit le mouvement d'un lance-pierre (tirer puis relâcher).
slingshot gesture = mouvement de lance-pierre
