Swiping on a button.. Almost there [HELP]
So I'm using blitMask and ThrowProps to handle swiping / dragging of my movieclips. However inside my movieclips I have some buttons. I have tried a solution detecting the mouse press MouseY, etc. to detect if the user swiped or touched.
What is happening is that the variable comes up at NaN on the first touch of the screen. Once the first touch is registered .. then it works.
Does someone have a better solution for this ? Otherwise if a user drags on the button .. the button event will be fired.
Here is how I am doing it now.
---------
// Blitmasking for Section 1
TweenPlugin.activate([ThrowPropsPlugin]);
var blitMask:BlitMask = new BlitMask(audioVideoContent_mc, audioVideoContent_mc.x, audioVideoContent_mc.y, audioVideoContent_mc.width, audioVideoContent_mc.height, true);
blitMask.bitmapMode = false;
var t1:uint, t2:uint, y1:Number, y2:Number;
blitMask.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
// FIX for Button events //
offset = audioVideoContent_mc.mouseY; //setting the offset from the origin
mouseDX = mouseY;
//
trace("bitmapMode is now FALSE");
blitMask.bitmapMode = false;
TweenLite.killTweensOf(audioVideoContent_mc);
y1 = y2 = audioVideoContent_mc.y;
t1 = t2 = getTimer();
audioVideoContent_mc.startDrag(false, new Rectangle(0, -99999, 0, 99999999));
audioVideoContent_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterFrameHandler);
audioVideoContent_mc.stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler);
}
function enterFrameHandler(event:Event):void {
y2 = y1;
t2 = t1;
y1 = audioVideoContent_mc.y;
t1 = getTimer();
//blitMask.scrollX = 0;
blitMask.update();
}
function enableBitMapMode():void{
trace("bitmapMode is now TRUE");
blitMask.bitmapMode = false;
}
function mouseUpHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
// FIX for button events in Throwprops //
mouseUX = mouseDX;
mouseDX = mouseY;
vy = mouseDX - mouseUX;
//trace("The RANGE was - " + Math.abs(mouseDX - mouseUX));
audioVideoContent_mc.stopDrag();
audioVideoContent_mc.stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, mouseUpHandler);
audioVideoContent_mc.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, enterFrameHandler);
var time:Number = (getTimer() - t2) / 1000;
var yVelocity:Number = (audioVideoContent_mc.y - y2) / time;
var yOverlap:Number = Math.max(0, audioVideoContent_mc.height - audioVideoContent_mc.height);
if (Math.abs(mouseDX - mouseUX) > tolerance){
trace("Mouse up was not within range of mouse down (10px), so is not a button press");
ThrowPropsPlugin.to(audioVideoContent_mc, {throwProps:{
y:{velocity:yVelocity, max:0, min:-1527, resistance:100}
}, onUpdate:blitMask.update, ease:Strong.easeOut, onComplete:enableBitMapMode
}, 10, 0.3, 0.2);
}
else if (Math.abs(mouseDX - mouseUX) < tolerance){
trace("Mouse up was within range of mouse down (10px), so is a button press :)");
//and will it work? No!
trace("the detected button press was on: " + event.target.name);
}
}
// LOAD THE VIDEO PATH
var docs:File = File.applicationDirectory;
// VIDEO BUTTONS //
audioVideoContent_mc.intro1BTN.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_intro1BTNa);
function fl_intro1BTNa(event:MouseEvent):void
{
// Solution to capture if a user is dragging or touching
offset = audioVideoContent_mc.mouseY; //setting the offset from the origin
mouseDX = mouseY;
audioVideoContent_mc.intro1BTN.alpha = 0.3;
}
audioVideoContent_mc.intro1BTN.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fl_intro1BTNb);
function fl_intro1BTNb(event:MouseEvent):void
{
audioVideoContent_mc.intro1BTN.alpha = 0;
trace("The BUTTON RANGE was - " + Math.abs(mouseDX - mouseUX));
if(Math.abs(mouseDX - mouseUX) < tolerance){
MovieClip(parent).videoPath = "file://"+docs.nativePath+"/videos/introSummary.mp4" as String;
TweenMax.to(MovieClip(parent).mainHomeBTN, .5, {x:0, y:-40, ease:Expo.easeOut, startAt:{x:0, y:5},onComplete:MovieClip(parent).loadVideo});
TweenMax.to(MovieClip(parent).closeVideoBTN, .5, {x:0, y:5, delay:.6, ease:Expo.easeOut, startAt:{x:0, y:-40}});
trace("Video Loaded");
}
else {
trace("YOU ARE SWIPING");
}
