Text click event does not work

[super_frog]

I am trying to add click event to a text (game.add.text), but it is not working for me.

I've seen an example and tried to implement, but I get an error saying 'Cannot read property 'onInputDown' of undefined'.

 

The code is:

var btn = game.add.text(game.world.centerX, game.world.centerY, 'blah1');

btn.inputEnabled = true;  

btn.events.onInputDown.add(function (){alert("blah2");}, this);

 

The code is place in:

PlayGround.gameOver =

{

    create: function ()

    {

        // here is placed the above code

    }

}

 

What am I doing wrong?

I found out the problem. I didn't copy the code that didn't work, I wrote it from memory and left out the culprit.

The above code works and mine doesn't because at the end of it I placed anchor.set(.5) and that returned me Point object instead of Text object. (how silly of me )

Hi,

Do you have the example available?

I wonder if you change game to this.game it would solve your undefined issue.

Hi, Here's example code

var btn = game.add.text(game.world.centerX, game.world.centerY, 'PLAY', {font: '40px Impact', fill: 'black', align: 'center'}).anchor.set(.5);btn.inputEnabled = true;btn.events.onInputDown.add(play, this);

I've tried with this.game, but the same error occurs.

hi.

i don't know if you already solved it but i think you need to add 'this.' before play.

example:

btn.events.onInputDown.add(this.play, this);

try this. That should work.
