I have a small JCanvas app that has the following layer def that sets a handler for mouseover. I put some console log statements in various places and it is clear that an event is generated every time the mouse moves in the rectangle, not just when it enters. mouseout also occurs with every mouse move.
That seems contrary to the definition of mouseover, common sense and the way jQuery works. Can anyone provide some insight into a problem of my making or if this is simply something I have to work around? Thanks in advance.
$(page).drawRect( {
click:function (layer) {topic_click(layer);},
mouseover:function (layer) {handleMouseover(layer);},
mouseout: function (layer) {handleMouseout (layer);},
fillStyle:"#000044",
x:x, y:y,
width:300,
height:60,
cornerRadius:16,
visible:true,
name:"topic_"+ ct.toString(),
layer:true
});
Yeah, seems to be fixed: In the firebug/chrome console enter a
$("canvas").clearCanvas();

I don't code so asking for help :-) Hi, I have an issue for a page animation with a couple of interactions. How do I insert a code snippet to tell the browser to either continue or pause the animation, when a user opens/clicks another tab.
Right now, the animation pauses for the first part, but the subsequent interactions keep going. And it's a jumbled mess.
What is the easiest/simple way to do this? Can someone share the full/complete code snippet to accomplish this? I've been searching for hours and can't seem to find the right solution.
I'm using Webflow for the site. Thanks a bunch.
When the user clicks away from a window, certain events are fired off. You can add event handlers to your window object that respond to these events.
You probably want to listen for 'focus' and 'blur' events. JavaScript:
window.addEventListener('blur', function (evt) {
// turn off your animation here
});
window.addEventListener('focus', function (evt) {
// turn on your animation here
});
Documentation on window blur event, window focus event, addEventListener().
I have a simple page that reports all window events, it might be useful:

While programming my own minesweeper game, I have come to a stage(kind of final one) where I have to introduce the concept of Flags. Currently, I am using mousePressed() to open up any cell that might be a mine. But I cannot figure out a way how to flag any cell, as I tried to use doubleClicked() but it does not work in this case. Does anyone have any hint for this, or any built in p5.js tool that might simply flag a cell?
EDIT:
https://github.com/abj54/minesweeper
My code is in the above repo for anyone who might want to go through it. In terms of flag, it is a basic indicator of letting user guess which of the given cell may be a mine.
Listening to booth events on the same object is problematic because of the event change which is called for a dblclick:
mousedown
mouseup
click
mousedown
mouseup
click
dbclick
P5.js checks the click/dblclick event of the window so you should not use both functions (click and dblclick).
But you can use the click event with a Timeout to solve this problem.
var clicked=false, clickTimeout=300;
function mouseClicked(){
if(!clicked){
clicked=true;
setTimeout(function(){
if(clicked){
console.log("single click");
clicked=false;
//single ClickStuff
}
},clickTimeout);
}else{
clicked=false;
console.log("double click");
//double click Stuff
}
}
So you are waiting the in clickTimeout defined amount of Time if a second click is called and react to.
I need to implement a behavior:
when element clicked - one thing happens
but when it's clicked and held for more than one second, something else happens (e.g element becomes draggable) and then the first event never fires
I think I know how to catch click&hold type of events, but how to distinguish between first and second?
Can you show me how to do that using this jsbin. I already made the "click, hold & drag" part, except that it is still firing the 'click' event after dragging the element and it shouldn't.
again: element clicked - one event, click and hold - element is draggable (even after mouse up) and when clicked again it's back to normal (undraggable) state.
I am not looking for a trivial solution, it has to be built using Rx.Observable or at least Bacon's streamEvent object
Thank you
I think you were pretty close with your solution, but probably it is not possible to elegantly achieve what you want while using the browser's built-in click event.
HERE is my attempt to tackle your problem.
The main idea is to define your own click streams like so:
var clicks = downs.flatMapLatest(function(){
return ups.takeUntil(Rx.Observable.timer(250));
});
var longDownsStart = downs.flatMapLatest(function(){
return Rx.Observable.timer(1000).takeUntil(ups);
});
In case of clicks we wait max 250 ms after a mouse down for a mouse-up; in case of the latter we generate the event only if there was no mouse-up within 1000 ms.
There might be some corner cases in which the code does not work as intended.
Here is my proposed solution (with Bacon.js).
Just trying to get my head around Adobe Edge. What I want to achieve sounds simple but having real trouble. I have a button element, that when mouseover, displays an animated symbol I have.
Currently my code,on the button is Mouseout:
sym.$("pgicatext2").hide();
and mouseover:
sym.$("pgicatext2").show();
This doesn't seem to be working. I can achieve the result if, I turn off the movie symbol, and use this code on the button
sym.$("pgicatext2").toggle();
The trouble is of course it doesn't replay the animation every time you mouse over, and all the while it's hidden it's playing the animation.
I see its been a month since you posted this. Hopefully you solved your issue. Your code for hiding and showing looks right. One thing I have had happen in some of my projects is that I inadvertently placed an object or symbol with 0% opacity on top of a button or something I had a mouse over event. Make sure that the button you have does not have anything layered on top of it. Another thing would be to turn off autoplay of your symbol, and add sym.$("pgicatext2").play(); into your mouse over. I know those are pretty obvious answers, but sometimes it is easy to forget the obvious.
Please get through following steps:
Check if the button is over all other visible layers ('Elements'
tab). Maybe setting cursor to 'pointer' will help to check it.
Use 'Mouseenter' and 'Mouseleave' instead of 'Mouseover' and
'Mouseout'. The difference is explained here.
Make sure that your animated symbols 'autoplay' option is off. If
you did not tick it off while creating the symbol, just set Playback
to 'Stop' on Stage at the very beginning of the timeline
Lets do some coding. Lets assume that your animated symbols name is
"film". You need to set following actions to your button element:
Mouseenter:
sym.$("film").show();
sym.getSymbol("film").play();
this basically shows up your 'film' element and plays 'film' symbol
Mouseleave:
sym.$("film").hide();
sym.getSymbol("film").stop(0);
this one hides your 'film' element and stops 'film' symbol at the beginning of animation (0ms)
Enjoy!
jQuery('area').cluetip({
sticky: true,
positionBy: 'auto',
width:370,
dropShadow:false,
closePosition: 'top',
closeText: '',
activation: 'click'
}
Straight to the point: when i click to activate popup windows, it's always at the right handside of where i click, even when there is not enough space. So for those it only shows some part to the cluetip as the rest is getting cutt off by browser window??
I am totally new to php and cluetip...
About the only thing that can be done, by the looks of things, is use the positionBy parameter. But it doesn't work really in determining if the tip is cutoff, I have tried many cases myself.
The options are auto, mouse, bottomTop, fixed, but none of them work really, they all get cut off.
The only solution I found myself was to use fixed and set top and left manually and always have it in the same place.
j('.areaH').cluetip({
positionBy: 'fixed',
topOffset: 200,
leftOffset: 100
});
Unfortunately though you are stuck at that place holder. I guess you could take the action and to each thing that calls a cluetip call a wait segment of 1 second then re-position the cluetip window using jQuery.
This would be in an onHover event set off by the thing that calls the cluetip separately. But that's about it. I have tested this myself on FF and Chrome and in both it cuts off.
http://plugins.learningjquery.com/cluetip/#features
In the onHover event you can always use another jQuery plugin that waits for an element to exist then re-position, what you can do is in each element have your own attr that has the new position, or just call the elements left and top position using jQuery and move the Cluetip window to that +20 in each direction.
