[RELEASED] Easy Touch

Hi,

Yes my Ipad2 is on IOS7

 

Hi,

Titlis
I don't understand why you manage a fake fingerIndex ?

 

Hi, Hedgehog Team

Cause i have a to send a bool at touchstart to tell the raycast script which controll the gun to start, i use the fake fingerindex to record which fingerindex is touch on freezone or joystick at the beginning, then at the on_touchup i check gesture.fingerindex == which finger, if its the finger controll the joystick then nothing happen, else if its the fingerindex which touch on freezone at touchstart, then return the bool to tell the script to stop controll the gun. Otherwise, if i dont do these stupid step, it sent the bool on any finger touchup. I know these is stupid,any suggestion pleasse

Ps. I cant use isHoverReservedArea on drag, if the drag leave the joystick area it will recognize as freezone. So i saved which fingerindex controll what things at start.

 

Hi

Titlis
Is your joystick is dynamic?

 

No, i haven't change any setting from default.

I think the reason cant use isHoverReservedArea on drag, is On_drag keep updating the gesture.isHoverReservedArea, so when i leave the joystick area, it detected as a freezone.

 

Titlis,

Ok, and I see that you use Drag event, not swipe event, it's mean that you have a big collider front of camera ?

 

Hi again,

Titlis
Can you try this one, I 'm using EasyJoystick event rather than EasyTouch event :

Code (csharp):

1.     private bool enableMoveGun = true;
2.  
3.     void OnEnable(){
4.         EasyTouch.On_Swipe += On_Swipe;
5.         EasyJoystick.On_JoystickTouchStart += On_JoystickTouchStart;
6.         EasyJoystick.On_JoystickTouchUp += On_JoystickTouchUp;
7.     }
8.  
9.     void OnDisable(){
10.         UnsubscribeEvent();
11.     }
12.  
13.     void OnDestroy(){
14.         UnsubscribeEvent();
15.     }
16.  
17.     void UnsubscribeEvent(){
18.         EasyTouch.On_Swipe -= On_Swipe;
19.         EasyJoystick.On_JoystickTouchStart -= On_JoystickTouchStart;
20.         EasyJoystick.On_JoystickTouchUp -= On_JoystickTouchUp;
21.     }    
22.  
23.  
24.     void On_Swipe(Gesture gesture){
25.        
26.         if ((gesture.touchCount == 1  enableMoveGun) || (gesture.touchCount>1  !gesture.isHoverReservedArea)){
27.             Debug.Log( "move gun");
28.         }
29.     }
30.  
31.  
32.     void On_JoystickTouchStart(MovingJoystick move){
33.         enableMoveGun = false;
34.     }
35.    
36.     void On_JoystickTouchUp(MovingJoystick move){
37.         enableMoveGun = true;
38.     }

 

Hi Hedgehog Team,

Just purchased the Easy Touch package last night and my code is already looking cleaner; great job on the asset!

I searched though the forum, but couldn't find a solution for multiple drag events. I have a few objects with a modified drag script which need to be able to receive their On_Drag/On_DragStart/On_DragEnd events independently. It looks like each of them remembers it's fingerIndex, the touch count does reflect that the previous finger is still pressed, however once a new object receives a drag event the old one freezes and no longer updates it's location.

Short of reverting to adding in Update Input.touches[fingerIndex].phase == TouchPhase.Moved - do something (my original workaround), is there a way to use Easy Touch with multiple drag events?

Thank you in advance!
Vlad

 

Hi,

VladNeykov
Can you try "MultipleFingers" example, there is multi drag event (off course you try it, on a real device). I'm thinking there is that you want

 

Hi,
Thank you for your prompt response; I did try it, even made a build on my iPad for it, and it exhibits a similar behaviour. You cannot be dragging one circle and then click to drag a second one without stopping the drag on the first one. In very very well-timed situations (if I manage to touch down at the exact same time on both circles) do I get a chance to drag them at the same time.

Any further help would be most appreciated!

Thanks,
'V

 

Hi VladNeyKov,

Your casea only happened when you have only two fingers, because there is security for two finger gesture that not allow to have tow different picked game object when you want to manage a twist or pinch.

So just disable 2 Fingers Gesture in the inspector.

 

You, sir, are a gentleman and a scholar!
That did the trick; thanks much

 

Yes,i have a plane collider attach on camera.

i tested the script, it works as same as using on_drag:sad: Things are perfect when the first touch is on joystick. However, If i touch on a free zone first, then touch on the joystick and drag it outside of the area, it affect the touch position. i think it is also due to the isHoverreservedArea is on a update Events.

 

Titlis,

Ok I see. I'm going to look at that ...

 

Titlis,

Pending the update on the store, here are the changes for what you want to do :

1- On MovingJoystick classe add this member : public int fingerIndex;

2- On EsayJoystick classe add this line at line 1088 (CreateEvent method)
move.fingerIndex= joystickIndex;

The new script

Code (csharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class test : MonoBehaviour {
5.    
6.  
7.     private int joyIndex=-1;
8.    
9.     void OnEnable(){
10.         EasyTouch.On_Swipe += On_Swipe;
11.         EasyJoystick.On_JoystickTouchStart += On_JoystickTouchStart;
12.         EasyJoystick.On_JoystickTouchUp += On_JoystickTouchUp;
13.     }
14.  
15.     void OnDisable(){
16.         UnsubscribeEvent();
17.     }
18.  
19.     void OnDestroy(){
20.         UnsubscribeEvent();
21.     }
22.  
23.     void UnsubscribeEvent(){
24.         EasyTouch.On_Swipe -= On_Swipe;
25.         EasyJoystick.On_JoystickTouchStart -= On_JoystickTouchStart;
26.         EasyJoystick.On_JoystickTouchUp -= On_JoystickTouchUp;
27.     }    
28.  
29.  
30.     void On_Swipe(Gesture gesture){
31.        
32.         if (gesture.fingerIndex != joyIndex){
33.             Debug.Log( "move gun" + gesture.position);
34.         }
35.     }
36.  
37.  
38.     void On_JoystickTouchStart(MovingJoystick move){
39.         joyIndex = move.fingerIndex;
40.     }
41.    
42.     void On_JoystickTouchUp(MovingJoystick move){
43.         joyIndex = -1;
44.     }
45. }

Tell me if it's good for you

 

Hi Nicolas,

Nice Skyping with you the other day. I finally have quit on 4.3.3 and put 4.2.2 back on. It works great with easytouch and my Droid 2.

 

Wow, Thank you so much!! it works amazing.

 

Hey I'm trying to get the joystick to work with javascript and i don't know how to it says nothing about that in the documentation here is my script

Code (csharp):

1. var MoveAxis : Vector2;
2.  
3. function On_JoystickMove(move: MovingJoystick){
4.     if (move.joystickName == "LeftJoystick"){
5.         MoveAxis = Vector2(move.joystickAxis.x,move.joystickAxis.y);
6.     }
7. }

 

Hi,

I've just installed today for the first time, as soon as the package is imported I'm receiving following error (twice) on the console. Any idea what that might be?

"Mismatched serialization in the builtin class 'Mesh'. (Read 560 bytes but expected 561 bytes)"

That's on latest unity...

Edit: I forgot to mention...

Asset store product page shows v3.1.6 but when imported plugin shows v.3.1.5. Asset store problem?

 

Hello

Did anybody manage to get Easy Touch to work with EZ GUI? I see that there is an NGUI compatbility support, but that did not help with EZ GUI.

If I include an EZ GUI button in my scene, and also Easy Touch, the app crashes after a few seconds on android.
It does not crash in the editor.

 

Hi

I don't know if anyone already mentioned it, but there seems to be a misspelling in the function name GetTouchToWordlPoint.
It's more of a nuisance than a real problem - still would be nice to get fixed.

 

Hi Team,

Sorry if this was already asked but how can I use different animations for moving forward and moving backwards? I am using the third person example.

 

Great plugin, much better than FingerGestures, but I'm having an odd NGUI related issue. I have the latest version of the EasyTouch and have NGUI support enabled with the ngui layers added. I add the NGUI camera in code because the UI (and ngui camera) is loaded during loading each mission scene of the game. I use:

uiCamera = UICamera.FindCameraForLayer(Globals.layerUI);
EasyTouch.instance.nGUICameras.Add(uiCamera.camera);

This seems to work perfectly in the editor as the UI touches and easy touch work together. Once I load the game onto an iPad everything works fine the first mission scene that I load (the EasyTouch gameobject is already in each mission scene), then if go back to the main menu and try another mission the NGUI support no longer works as touches go right through the ngui UI and register on both the 3D objects and NGUI. This only happens on a device, not in the editor.

I put in a debug after my add camera line:
Debug.Log(EasyTouch.instance.nGUICameras[0].name);

and got a null reference error on device (not in the editor) when the 2nd mission scene was loaded. So then I added this line:
EasyTouch.instance.nGUICameras = new List<Camera>();

before I add the camera and then the debug worked reading back the ngui camera name, but that didn't fix the issue as touches on the UI hit both the UI and the 3D objects underneath.

 

Hi CapitalJmedia,

Do you use one EasyTouch for all scenes or only one easytouch for each scene (don't destroy on load) ?

 

I use a separate EasyTouch in every scene (except main menu). So every scene has it's own EasyTouch gameobject.

 

Hi,

Ok I suppose you added these line on start method. I don't know why, but in some case Unity doesn't execute scripts in the same order as in editor. To prevent thaat I added a new event "On_EasyTouchIsReady".

Subscribe to it, and you must make initialization line in the event


Nicolas

 

Does it fully support Daikon Forge UI?

 

Not yet, but a simple change can do it

 

Yes, I has my code in the Start function. I added your event and it seems to have worked. Thanks for the help!

 

You're welcome

 

Hi, I am trying to disable the 2nd finger simulation from standalone builds. Shouldn't the simulation of the 2nd finger only occur in the editor? Otherwise in standalone windows/mac builds the orange circle shows up if the 2nd finger button is pressed. I suggest disabling that by default for standalone builds.

I tried:
EasyTouch.instance.showSecondFinger = false;

but that doesn't work, and changing the keys for the 2nd finger simulation doesn't seem to do anything either as the same keys keep being used.

To disable this I had to change line 49 of EasyTouchInput.cs (add platform dependent code):

#if UNITY_EDITOR
if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftAlt) || Input.GetKey(EasyTouch.instance.twistKey)|| Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftControl) ||Input.GetKey(EasyTouch.instance.swipeKey ))
count=2;
if (Input.GetKeyUp(KeyCode.LeftAlt)|| Input.GetKeyUp(EasyTouch.instance.twistKey)|| Input.GetKeyUp(KeyCode.LeftControl)|| Input.GetKeyUp(EasyTouch.instance.swipeKey))
count=2;
#endif

and line 552 of EasyTouch.cs (added Unity_standalone to platform dependent code):

#if ((!UNITY_ANDROID !UNITY_IPHONE !UNITY_WINRT !UNITY_BLACKBERRY !UNITY_STANDALONE) || UNITY_EDITOR)
void OnGUI(){
Vector2 finger = input.GetSecondFingerPosition();
if (finger!=new Vector2(-1,-1)){
GUI.DrawTexture( new Rect(finger.x-16,Screen.height-finger.y-16,32,32),secondFingerTexture);
}
}
#endif

 

Hi

I going to look that I can do for the next release.

 

Hi again, I'm having an issue with getting a regular tap to be recognized on a standalone windows build (on a touchscreen device running win8.1 but a regular windows build, not a windows 8 build). It only gets recognized if I hold down for about a second instead of a quick tap (like it does on mobile platforms). Using:

EasyTouch.On_SimpleTap += OnTap;

private void OnTap( Gesture gesture )
{
Debug.Log("tap");
}

It registers mouse clicks just fine (which call the OnTap method from EasyTouch), and works perfectly on iOS/Android, but on a standalone windows build it is different. I've used other gesture recognizers on standalone windows builds and tap gestures always worked fine on touchscreen win devices.

 

Hello

I have a game which controls the character by touching screen. I tried putting a button on screen but character moves when I touch button.

How do I ignore touch for moving character but get touch for button?

Thanks!

 

Hi,

You must test if the member isHoverReservedArea of Gesture class is equal to false when your receive an event from easytouch.

When his member is equal to true, it's mean that you touch a button or a joystick.

Nicolas

 

Can I get the change needed to support Daikon Forge?

Thanks

 

Hi,

This is the code made by Udorn, to support DFGUI. You have to replace IsTouchHoverNGui method by this one in EasyTouch.cd script

Code (csharp):

1. private bool IsTouchHoverNGui(int touchIndex){
2.  
3.  
4.         bool returnValue = false;
5.  
6.         if (enabledNGuiMode){
7.             LayerMask mask= nGUILayers;
8.             RaycastHit hit;      
9.             int i=0;
10.  
11.             while (!returnValue  i<nGUICameras.Count){
12.  
13.                 Ray ray = nGUICameras[i].ScreenPointToRay( fingers[touchIndex].position );
14.                 returnValue =  Physics.Raycast( ray, out hit,float.MaxValue,mask );
15.                 returnValue = returnValue  hit.transform.parent != null;
16.  
17.                 i++;
18.  
19.             }
20.         }
21.         return returnValue;
22.  
23.     }

 

Awesome, I'll give it a shot, Thanks!

 

Cool thank Nicolas that worked.

Can I use Easytouch to detect when I touch a gameobject?

I have a raycast system working but it seems ugly.

 

Hi,

Is there a way to always detect the object that is under the swipe? I have used the static EasyTouch.GetCurrentPickedObject method along with the OnSwipe callback, but it seems to stop after a bit of swiping around. Am I missing something here?

If the user is swiping the screen, non stop, I would like to be able to get the object that is always under the finger. How would I go about doing this?

Adam

 

Hi,

how would you setup a script to move the camera up, down, left, right.?
I'm making a top down 2d game. I want to be able to move the camera as i swipe my finger in any direction.
I tried using drag, but that's not working for me.. would you use swipe or drag..?

 

Hi Nicolas, did you see my question about the simpletap not working on windows? I also PMed you about it a few days ago.

 

I've been trying to solve this for a few weeks now, and haven't heard back to my PMs or on this forum about this issue. I guess it's time to try out another gesture plugin.

 

Hi capital

Sorry, to not have responded rather (I'm very busy at the moment).Can you give me again your problem.

Nicolas

 

The simple tap doesn't work on window ?

Does one finger example work for you ?

Nicolas

 

I'm having an issue with getting a regular tap to be recognized on a standalone windows build (on a touchscreen device running win8.1 but a regular windows build, not a windows 8 build). It only gets recognized if I hold down for about a second instead of a quick tap (like it does on mobile platforms). Using:

EasyTouch.On_SimpleTap += OnTap;

private void OnTap( Gesture gesture )
{
Debug.Log("tap");
}

It registers mouse clicks just fine (which call the OnTap method from EasyTouch), and works perfectly on iOS/Android, but on a standalone windows build it is different. I've used other gesture recognizers on standalone windows builds and tap gestures always worked fine on touchscreen win devices.

 

Ah ok, you want to use EasyTouch on Win8 or 7 Touch screen , that is correct ?

 

Yes, on a regular Standalone windows build (not a win8 store build). Currently the Drag, Swipe and Pinch gestures work with EasyTouch on standalone windows build, but tap only works if i hold down for about 1 second (as if it is receiving a long tap instead of simple tap).

 

Can you increase the stationay tolerance in the inspector, and make a try

Nicolas

 

Tried it, all it did was make the dragging less responsive but a tap was still not recognized unless I held for 1+ seconds. I set the stationary tolerance to 100.

That also brings up another issue, whenever I make changes to the EasyTouch object in the inspector, like the above stationary tolerance setting, it doesn't save. It reverts back to the default setting as soon as I hit play in the editor. But I did manage to get it to stay by changing it in code using EasyTouch.On_EasyTouchIsReady += StartEasyTouch.
