multiple calls on mouseDown events itgb BUG

by robert.landivar · in iTorque 2D · 04/14/2010 (6:16 am) · 3 replies

On the iPhone if i tap, it sends one onMouseDown call, but if i drag after clicking it send multiple onMouseDown events. Big problem since im trying to use it to tap through rules. So if the user happens to click and drag it "fast fowards" throught all the pages. Unfortunately i have not found a solution to this

edit:
easiest way to get around this is to use onMouseUp instead of onMouseDown

you may want to set the mouse events to false so the object will respond only one time.

Hi there,
I have come across a similar issue.
I want to have a 2 dPad system, one for direction, one for rotation... It seems the iDevice can only handle one mouseEvent at a time. Any ideas of how to get over this?

I read, in this thread...

1) you can change the iTGB source to have ALL touches work like a mouse. iTGB will always make touch 0 work as such (as you prolly already know), you can check out the source and set all the touches to do that. Problem with that is that it may have undesired results, particularly a very sporadic cursor and perhaps some confusing mouseDown/mouseUp combinations.

So my question is, is it safe to adjust the amount of touches the iTGB gui will take AND if so.. how?
