Title: Does NGUI provide mouse/touch detect function for custom use?
Post by: RiRin on November 10, 2012, 01:40:29 AM

I want to create my custom draggable UI without UIDraggablePanel.
Is there any function in NGUI which I can use to detect mouse/touch event?
For example;
if(NGUI.GetTouchEvent("drag"))
{
  // do something.
}

Thank you in advance for your information.

You will want to have a look at UICamera for the functions you need to watch for things such as touches and drags. onDrag, onPressed and onSelected are 3 that I can think of off the top of my head. Implement these functions in your code and you can do what you want with them.

There is a whole list of functions that get called on everything that is parented to UICamera on top of UICamera.cs script.
 

1. /// - OnHover (isOver) is sent when the mouse hovers over a collider or moves away.
2. /// - OnPress (isDown) is sent when a mouse button gets pressed on the collider.
3. /// - OnSelect (selected) is sent when a mouse button is released on the same object as it was pressed on.
4. /// - OnClick (int button) is sent with the same conditions as OnSelect, with the added check to see if the mouse has not moved much.
5. /// - OnDoubleClick (int button) is sent when the click happens twice within a fourth of a second.
6. /// - OnDrag (delta) is sent when a mouse or touch gets pressed on a collider and starts dragging it.
7. /// - OnDrop (gameObject) is sent when the mouse or touch get released on a different collider than the one that was being dragged.
8. /// - OnInput (text) is sent when typing (after selecting a collider by clicking on it).
9. /// - OnTooltip (show) is sent when the mouse hovers over a collider for some time without moving.
10. /// - OnScroll (float delta) is sent out when the mouse scroll wheel is moved.
11. /// - OnKey (KeyCode key) is sent when keyboard or controller input is used.

You can implement the said functions for objects to receive events.
