[Solved] Getting an object my clicking on it

by Luis E Pabon · in iTorque 2D · 09/23/2011 (1:16 am) · 3 replies

I'm curious to know if there is an already implemented way to get an object by clicking on it. For example, I'd like to lock the camera on a sprite I click on.

Using sceneWindow's onMouseDown method is an option, but would require some tinkering to grab an object in the area you click on.

Update: Michael Perry is a very classy gent. Marked as solved.

Every sprite can use the onMouseDown method. Just use that.

Didn't think of that, thanks. Do you know if this method works on the iPhone hardware as well? This is an iTGB project, I just posted it on the wrong forum.

I'll move it to the right forum. For iT2D 1.4.1 and below, onMouseDown will work. For 1.5, you want to use onTouchDown.
