How do I to detect the direction of touch?

Hi everybody !

Construct 2 is very powerful and useful tool !!!

But I do not know if it is possible to detect the direction in which our finger goes when you touch a sprite.

[SPRITE] = (finger goes to LEFT ---> RIGHT or RIGHT ---> LEFT)

Thank you for your help !

Click the "tutorials" tab above and search "touch". I was going to post some links to the threads but there are just so many good ones for you to read through and answer your question.

Thank you for your answer but i don't find a solution.

Look my capx example : https://mon-partage.fr/f/aoUvHiVH/

Look at this .capx in the left and right swipe events. It's not a cut-paste solution to your problem but it shows you how to detect a right/left swipe and act on it.

In your example it sounds like your more interested in grabbing the direction than acting on it at this point... this is as simple as comparing the variables isLeft and isRight in the capx example (they are instance variables in the penqwin sprite but you could make globals). If isLeft = 1 and isRight = 0 player swiped L, etc.

Thank you very much for your example ! This will help me a lot.
