two finger touch...

GregBUG

sorry guys, i feel stupid i can't figure how to simply detect if the player touch the screen with two fingers!! (

i assigned to the STAGE event listner the event Event.TOUCHES_BEGIN and it fires up when the player touch the screen
but how to detect two fingers?

thanks!

I think the easiest way is the control the length of event.allTouches array. If it is 2, then exactly 2 fingers is touching the screen.

local function onTouchesBegin(event) local isTwoFinger = (#event.allTouches == 2) end

Btw, did you check Touch Explorer example? It can be very informative.

GregBUG

thanks it works perfect!!!

btw yes i checked the example Touch Explorer...

i also checked the api documentation but no info on the array event.allTouches or event.touches

wow! my first gideros game is almost finished!

thanks atilim!

You're welcome

Yes, the reference manual doesn't contain information about events. But you can refer here: http://www.giderosmobile.com/documentation/events.html

GregBUG

thanks atilim,
for you help

but i think that gideros need a bit more "in deep" docs because without your help i never figured the existence of event.allTouches


ciao ciao

I cannot agree more. We'll start working on a more organized documentation after the next release.
