Can someone with 1071 installed please check the GetRawTouchCount() command.


Gives me
0
1
Which shouldn't happen.

Its working on my Phone, but not in windows, just want it confirming it's not my system before I report it.

GetRawTouchCount will always return 0 on Windows as we don't currently support Windows touch devices

in the same way, it seems GetSpriteHit in AppGameKit windows 1071 doesn't return the good Sprite IDs ...




It was working well with the 1070 version.

something has changed on this command or is it a bug ?

Is this a change? It worked up until now, presumably emulated.

If this is the way it's supposed to behave, it's not a big deal - just an additional check during testing.

There was a change where sprites fixed to the screen would not report a correct hit test. Although it now appears the bug has just shifted to non-fixed sprites. I've fixed it for both scenarios for the next version.

Yes this is a change, as previously a Windows mouse would produce both a mouse event and a touch event which was incorrect. So Windows mice now only produce a mouse event.

MikeMax, have you tried adding your offset value to x and y pointer co-ords? i have just been playing with getspritehit, and although I used the ScreenToWorldX an Y commands, I still had to add the viewoffset to the cursor co-ords.

I have 2 offsets for each direction, one for the main scroll (player_x) and one for the inbetween scroll between grids (scrollx). This has worked for me doing a large scrolling map earlier today.

Hi, If someone wants to flag Windows multi-touch in the Issues Board or enter a new report and then email me the link, I have a personal reason for making this work on Windows platform for 107 so if I can have a friendly community remind on this one for next week, that would be cool

I drink tea, and in my spare time I write software.

Multitouch on windows will be VERY important as Win8 is released officially. I bet touch screens sales will blow off the roof in 2013!

DVader, i don't have tried this because i don't want to search a workaround and change my code because a function doesn't work like it should and Paul has already fixed it for the next version (getspritehit was working well in 1070 with non-fixed sprites

But thanks for your tip, i will try that if the next version takes too much time to be released

No problem, it is just an option. I am used to dealing with scrolls that way normally, and this was my first try with the screentoworld commands. I was rather bemused I had to add the scroll position on to get it working, and wondered if there was much point to using it. If it's bugged that explains it

MikeMax, same prob here, and I don't want to use a work-around that I'll just have to re-code later either. I hope they fix this one quick, as I'm dead in the water with it broke.
