In addition to the key events described in the previous section, radios with a color touch screen also provide touch events to the widget scripts.
The following touch events are passed in the event
argument to the widget script refresh
function (when in full screen mode), just like the key events. The following touch events are provided:
In addition to the above touch events a touchState
table is passed to refresh
with the following addional data fields:
touchState
is nil
if event
is not a touch event. This can be used to test if we have a touch event or a key event.
Since Lua evaluates a nil
value to false
and everything else to true
:
if touchState then
we have a touch event.
x, y
are present for all touch events.
startX, startY, slideX, slideY
are only present with EVT_TOUCH_SLIDE
.
swipeUp
/ swipeDown
/ swipeLeft
/ swipeRight
may be present only withEVT_TOUCH_SLIDE
.
tapCount
is zero for anything but EVT_TOUCH_TAP
.
