Generate tap on release, only if no other button down now...

Post by cauli »

I'm having trouble avoiding accidental actions on an 8-way d-pad. This usually happens as a result of the first touch triggering an adjacent button.

My idea to work around the issue is to only generate the tap when the button is released, but for this to work the user must have finished pressing the d-pad, not merely that specific button. Is this possible?

The logic is:

On release of d pad button b, if no other d pad button pressed then tap key k(b)

This is not possible.
But if you give all dire direction a small delay before triggering the assignment by placing a Hold Zone of maybe 0.05 or 0.10 seconds in front of it, you can avoid that problem. You just have to tap this direction for at least this time.

Thanks, I'll give it a go. BTW this is for WoW, specifically a Warlock with 48 actions available via the d-pad ;)
