"InteractionManager"-Get Where Mouse Screen (X, Y)?

[JeZxLee]

Hi,

Looking at the documents, in "InteractionManager" pages.
I can't seem to find house to get mouse screen x, y ?

If I just use mouse functions would that support basic touch input on mobile?

Thanks!

"renderer.plugins.interaction.mouse.global"

As for pointers, you have to get coords from events data. "pointerdown" and those kind of events are working on mobile. And seriously, creating new topic when you have one for interaction already is bad.

Sorry for the new post, tired...

I am completely lost with getting mouse/touch coordinates.
Need something simple for now that supports both computers and mobile.
(multi-touch will be added at a much later date)

Can you just write a small example which puts the (x, y) of mouse/touch in the following global variables?:

var MouseX = 0;
var MouseY = 0;
var MouseButtonClicked = false;
var MouseButtonDown = false;

Just go sleep ^_^. Coords are in "renderer.plugins.interaction.mouse.global", and if you want multitouch, you have to handle it per event, it cant be done with global vars.

Hi,

I got mouse coordinates working on computers, but get nothing on Google mobile?

You can run the demo HERE.
You can download the current source code HERE.

Thanks!

Hi,

I have the following code:
 

function GetMouseTouchScreenXY()
{
	var mouse = renderer.plugins.interaction.mouse.global;
	MouseX = mouse.x;
	MouseY = mouse.y;
	
	if (mouse.mousedown)  MouseButtonDown = true;
	else if (MouseButtonDown == true)
	{
		MouseButtonDown = false;
		MouseButtonClicked = true;
	}
	else
	{
		MouseButtonDown = false;
		MouseButtonClicked = false;
	}
}

The mouse coordinates work on computers but not Android?
Also the clicking on left mouse button is not working?

What am I doing wrong, the documentation on mouse input is confusing...

Take a look at the examples page which demonstrates usage

https://pixijs.github.io/examples/#/demos/interactivity.js

Ok, that explains alot...

How would I just get a mouse click anywhere on the game's canvas?

[themoonrat]

renderer.plugins.interaction.on( 'pointerdown', ( event ) => { console.log( event ) } );

[JeZxLee]

That works, thanks...

Still no touch coordinates on my Android devices? (no x,y - but touch is detected)
Do I have to do something special to get the above?

Use a breakpoint and look within the event object after adding a pointermove event

renderer.plugins.interaction.on( 'pointermove', ( event ) => { console.log( event ) } );

All the info you need is in there

[JeZxLee]

i don't need mouse coordinates anymore...
