Detect the finger up/down on the screen

Is it possible to detect a touch generic event on-screen little matter to which component is affected?
I need to know when the finger is the screen down and to the top of the screen to manage a specific behavior on the app.

How about something like:

onTouch {}
If (event.isDown ()) {}
Start the timer
}
else {if (event.isUp ())}
off timer
}
}

And this applies to the container root of UI

  • How to detect the screen off the power of the event

    Is it possible to detect the screen off the power of the event?  I am looking to detect when the screen turns off due to time-out or press the button of the lock screen.  Similarly, I would need to detect where the screen turns back on.  I searched through the API WebWorks and forums but have not found anything relevant.  Maybe I'm looking just the wrong thing. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Detect the screen reader is enabled or disabled

    Hi all

    Is it possible to detect whether accessibility screen reader mode is enabled or disabled using native plugin?

    I have not found anything relevant to detection here:

    http://developer.BlackBerry.com/native/reference/Cascades/user_interface_accessibility.html

    Thank you.

    No, it isn't an API to check if the screen reader is enabled or disabled.  If your application implements the correct accessibility tags, it shouldn't really need to know whether or not it is enabled.

  • Intermittent failure to detect the screen on startup on the Satellite X 200

    For awhile now, my X 200 suffered intermittent problems with the screen. When turn he will deliver a long and two short beeps and then proceed to start but without the screen.

    I normally feed the cycle several times and find that it sorts itself, but tonight he would not cooperate so I dug a cable for my TV and used as a monitor and of course the machine starts very well and after POST went immediately to the embedded poster again. Does anyone have an idea what is happening and why?

    A little more background.
    This is slot and turned off for about a month now.
    I used a variety of drivers the two latest WHQL and LV2G releases, but they all have the same problem.

    Right now I'm on the default of most drivers, and I'm going through the process of sprinkled updates having rebuilt just clean the machine because of other problems (in a separate thread), but immediately before reconstruction, the problem has been all too obvious and all the drivers were later so I don't think this is a driver related issue or at least not one that seems be resolved by any of the releases.

    Seems rather strange. Did you check your BIOS options? Maybe you should set this back to the default settings.
    Or try and install the latest version of the BIOS.
    If that's not enough, and I read that you already have a clean reinstall the latest drivers, I would say that contact local ASP, as a beep sounds are not normal.

    They can tell you what mean these sounds.

  • Classic BlackBerry sliding down from the top of the screen sometimes does not

    I now use the classic BB for several weeks and used the front Q10. In addition, I use the Z30 for business.

    Z30 and Q10 everthing works fine.

    But on the classic when I try to slide down from the top of the screen, in:

    -Calendar

    -Contacts

    -Clock (especially when trying to slide back down to finish the night mode)

    - and mybe some other applications

    the menu does not open. I have to make several attempts and sometimes it does that when I drag to the bottom of the upper left corner. Q10 and Z30 it does not matter where to place my finger to slide down.

    It works instantly.

    The tht to main menu, you can join the works of the homescreen with no problems.

    Have you experienced the same thing? What is your recommendation? I'll trade the HW?

    Thanks for your advice

    Alex

    There is a solution for this. When you're in contacts, calendar or alarm clock, press in and hold the Menu button for a second or two, it will have the same effect as sliding down.

    I try to avoid slipping to the extent possible, so I always use the Menu key to bring up the Menus and options.

  • Detect how far user made scroll to the bottom of the screen

    Hello

    About BB9800 im having some scrolling problems, its delicate for the user scroll completely to the bottom of the screen.

    Is it possible to detect when the user has navigated about 9/10 of the way down the screen and programmatically and then scroll to the bottom of the screen?

    Thank you

    If you add a listener of scrolling to the manager who manages this scrolling, you can do it yourself.  Use setVerticalScroll to position your managers.

    That said, I would want to add something like a NullField at the end of your screen so that the user can scroll right to the bottom.  I think what you try to do is overcome the symptoms, you need to resolve why your users have a problem rather than work around the problem.

  • How to detect the user touch and hold the screen for touch screen devices?

    Hello

    I want my code to do the following:

    when user touch and hold on the screen{
        myThread.start();
    }
    
    when user release the finger on the screen{
        myThread.done();  //a method to stop the thread
    }
    

    Any ideas? Thank you very much

    Never to change never return super.touchEvent (...) to return true (well, you can do it for complete events such as MOVE or GESTURE. SWIPE_...) -you will disrupt the event processing complex (just about everything, but downwards and upwards).

    The code works for me (I do something else, with more visual impact, so I know for sure that it does). One thing, try - check the status of your Thread (isAlive()) before you start, as DOWN seems to be generated twice.

    If you could be more specific with what "won't work" is, I would be able to help more.

  • Detect the finger leaves the scene

    Hi all

    I have an object in my scene which can be dragged around. He listens to event mouse_down and begins after the mouse/finger on each mouse_move event until he recorded a mouse_up event.

    How can I detect when the user's finger leaves the side of the screen? Currently, if a user drags on the side of the screen and raises their finger, no mouse_up case is never raised and the subject thinks it's still inappropriate. Thus, there is a mouse_leave event which should do what I want, but seems not to relax.

    Ideally, I'd like that behavior, for example the browser - movement still works on the bezel, and if the user swipes too far the application can sign up for an event and act as if the finger was lifted.

    Please let me know if anyone can suggest a solution or if it is simply not possible in the air.

    Thank you
    Brandon

    I found the solution to this problem, and as it is the spirit in the forums, I will share my solution for future use.

    The problem is that MouseEvents are not triggered properly when moving outside the [0,0] to [1 023 599] screen coordinates. The solution is to use the multipoint touch input rather than detect mouse events.

    (1) import the right classes:

    flash.ui import. *;

    (2) turn followed multitouch of entry (add this to your Builder):

    flash.ui.Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.TOUCH_POINT;

    (3) allow the capture of the event:

    ship.addEventListener (TouchEvent.TOUCH_BEGIN, press_start);

    stage.addEventListener (TouchEvent.TOUCH_MOVE, press_moved);
    stage.addEventListener (TouchEvent.TOUCH_END, press_end);

    (4) for each of the press_start, press_moved and press_end fuctions, add the following code to ensure that the use of multiple fingers is not screw up:

    If (event.isPrimaryTouchPoint == false) Then return

    Works like a charm!

  • Very recently, whenever I run Firefox, an arrow appears, pointing down and disappears to the top of the screen

    Recently, whenever I run Firefox, an arrow appears, pointing down and quickly disappears to the top of the screen. I'm not trying to download something, it is whenever I run Firefox. At first I thought I was seeing things, but verified by concentrating just to catch, it appear and disappear. See no reason for this. I use Firefox for years and it's never happened before. Furthermore, it does not appear on my IE browser.

    Never mind. I found the problem and it was a program that was trying to download it, but couldn't all the time. I removed from the Firefox download page.

    Status: solved!

    I don't think it's a Firefox issue, but the keyboard shortcut is Ctrl + Alt + [key]. CTRL + Alt + up should put your monitor in the right direction.

  • Satellite U840T - mouse disappears on the right of the screen and down

    I have a problem with my Satellite U840T screen

    The mouse disappears on the right of the screen and the background in the black bars at the top and then the left side of the mouse cannot go to bars.

    In the display settings, everything is good, I think.

    Thank you for your help

    Hello

    I confused m.
    Your question isn't described very well.

    What do you mean exactly by: mouse disappears on the right of the screen and the background in the black bars at the top
    Do you mean the touchpad or the cursor?
    The laptop's touchpad supports the (multi-touch) gesture control feature, and this feature could be configured in the settings of the touchpad:
    + Control Panel-> mouse-> device-> settings settings tab.

    You will also find the option called shots of edge which opens the charms, app Switcher bar and toolbar Application simply by moving your finger between the edge of the touchpad to the centre.

    In this case the cursor is not visible.
