I’m using the `<SwipeGesture Length="100" ...>` and changing the values up and down even to `0` and it doesn’t change effect at all

Can you provide a code example? The `Length` propery refers to how far the swiping gesture “moves”, it is primarily relevant for the `SwipingAnimation` trigger.

The user has to also swipe past half this distnace to activate the gesture. However, there is also a velocity based trigger. If the user simply swipes fast enough, even if it doesn’t cover many pixels, the gesture will be activated.

Is there a way to alter/specify this? If that doesn’t work I’ll try to reproduce a small example

There is no way to configure the velocity based aspect at the moment. I can add a feature request for that, but if you have a use-case it would help to understand how that feature should look.
