B4J Question Form Click?

[Timothy Schablin]

Is there a method for Form_Click?

Ive tried;

Sub Form_Click()
Sub Form_Action()
Sub MainForm_Click()

....... just cant find the right syntax

Sub MainForm_MouseClicked (EventData As MouseEvent)
   Log(EventData)
End Sub

In the future, type "Sub", then press the Space key and then the Tab key (you'll be prompted to press the Tab key by the IDE) and you will get a list of classes exposing Events. Choose the class you want (in this case, it would have been Form) and you'll see the Events exposed. Then you just have to fill in the event name prefix.

but it is interesting, that the MouseClicked-Event will not be exposed in that way...from the internal designer, right mouseklick->generate it will be exposed...is this a bug?

 

[Roycefer]

That's correct. The _MouseClicked() event doesn't belong to the Form, it belongs to the Form's RootPane member, of type AnchorPane. You'd want to type "Sub", then Space, then Tab and then select "AnchorPane" from the auto-complete menu. There, you'll see the _MouseClicked() event exposed.

This is indeed a bit confusing. As @Roycefer wrote the MouseClicked event belongs to the root pane. The root pane event name is the same as the form's event name.
