Android Question B4XDateTemplate - Trapping mouse LONG CLICK

[beelze69]

Hi Team,

I am using the B4XDateTemplate which is available inside XUI Views.b4xLib(zip file) code for an application..

I have been able to customize it for 'highlighting days' based on a certain condition with a specific color.

However, I would like to carry out some activity upon doing a 'LONG CLICK' in the days panel.

The relevant code snippet where I think I need to modify is in the code block:

Private Sub DaysPaneFg_Touch (Action As Int, X As Float, Y As Float)
Dim p As B4XView = DaysPaneFg
Log("Day Panel Touched")
HandleMouse(X, Y, Action <> p.TOUCH_ACTION_UP)
End Sub

Requesting for some guidance on how to go about doing this.

Thanks.

I am not @Erel, but I will try to answer.

The Touch event has a Action parameter that includes p.TOUCH_ACTION_UP and p.TOUCH_ACTION_DOWN.
(p is the panel, but any B4XView will do, they all have these constants)

You need to time the difference (add a global variable for this). If the interval is what you consider is "Long", make you action.

Thanks William,

I did it and was able to log the 'Long Click' and the 'Click' separately...

I also took help from this post..
