Methods

<internal> addClickTrampoline(name, callback, callbackContext, callbackArgs)

Add a click trampoline to this pointer.

A click trampoline is a callback that is run on the DOM 'click' event; this is primarily needed with certain browsers (ie. IE11) which restrict some actions like requestFullscreen to the DOM 'click' event and reject it for 'pointer' and 'mouse' events.

This is used internally by the ScaleManager; click trampoline usage is uncommon. Click trampolines can only be added to pointers that are currently down.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
name	string	The name of the trampoline; must be unique among active trampolines in this pointer.
callback	function	Callback to run/trampoline.
callbackContext	object	Context of the callback.
callbackArgs	Array.<object> | null	Additional callback args, if any. Supplied as an array.

Internal:

• This member is internal (protected) and may be modified or removed in the future.

justPressed(duration) → {boolean}

The Pointer is considered justPressed if the time it was pressed onto the touchscreen or clicked is less than justPressedRate. Note that calling justPressed doesn't reset the pressed status of the Pointer, it will return true for as long as the duration is valid. If you wish to check if the Pointer was pressed down just once then see the Sprite.events.onInputDown event.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
duration	number	<optional>	The time to check against. If none given it will use InputManager.justPressedRate.

Returns:

boolean -

true if the Pointer was pressed down within the duration given.

Source - input/Pointer.js, line 666

justReleased(duration) → {boolean}

The Pointer is considered justReleased if the time it left the touchscreen is less than justReleasedRate. Note that calling justReleased doesn't reset the pressed status of the Pointer, it will return true for as long as the duration is valid. If you wish to check if the Pointer was released just once then see the Sprite.events.onInputUp event.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Description
duration	number	<optional>	The time to check against. If none given it will use InputManager.justReleasedRate.

Returns:

boolean -

true if the Pointer was released within the duration given.

Source - input/Pointer.js, line 682

leave(event)

Called when the Pointer leaves the target area.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
event	MouseEvent | PointerEvent | TouchEvent	The event passed up from the input handler.

Source - input/Pointer.js, line 583

move(event, fromClick)

Called when the Pointer is moved.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
event	MouseEvent | PointerEvent | TouchEvent			The event passed up from the input handler.
fromClick	boolean	<optional>	false	Was this called from the click event?

Source - input/Pointer.js, line 385

<internal> processInteractiveObjects(fromClick) → {boolean}

Process all interactive objects to find out which ones were updated in the recent Pointer move.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
fromClick	boolean	<optional>	false	Was this called from the click event?

Returns:

boolean -

True if this method processes an object (i.e. a Sprite becomes the Pointers currentTarget), otherwise false.
