Title: Prevent second Buttonpress
Post by: BehindTheStone on August 28, 2013, 12:01:38 PM

So I have a button and when this button is pressed it's playing a certain Animation (2DToolkit), but when the button is pressed again, the animation starts again before the last cycle of the animation could end.

Is there a way to prevent more input on the button till the moment the animation is done playing?

You'll have to do a little work.

Wherever you're processing your OnClick(), you should set a bool (animating). When the toolkit animation is done, call a method on your OnClick handler to set animating to false.

Same procedure with OnPress? The Button works with the OnPress(bool pressed) method.

Yeah, well, OnPress has the down/up bool sent with it, but the idea is the same. Just make sure you only fire your animation on the one you want (pressdown or release).

Mhm, to be honest I didn't quite understand how to prevent the second input with the animation-bool?
Some Pseudo-Code-Advice?

What Nicky said. PsuedoCode? Something like this maybe.



bool isAnimPlaying = false;

if (OnPress)
{
 if (!isAnimPlaying)
 {
  PlayAnim();
  isAnimPlaying = true;
 }

 if (IsAnimFinished())
 {
  isAnimPlaying = false
 }
}
