Button Object (V1.0)

Top  Previous  Next

The button object detects when the button is pressed or released.

The on_button_pressed event is generated when the button is pressed. The on_button_released event is generated when the button is released.

The button.time read-only property returns the time (in 0.5 intervals) elapsed since the button was last pressed or released. You can use this property, for instance, to separate button pressing into "short" and "long":

 

 

sub on_button_released

'see how much time has elapsed

 

if button.time>4 then

       'LONG- do one thing

else

       'SHORT- do another thing

end if

 

end sub
