How do I scroll my map with Touch object?

Hi to all

my app is a 480x800px layout

the picture i have with a jpg map is 2459, 2459 in size

How to scroll that map with the touch object

One way I can think of is you could create a sprite on touch, pin the map to it and is touching set sprite to touch.x, touch.y

im trying but i dont get any good result

Why not?

What result are you getting?

What result do you expect?

What are the events you are using?

What effect are you looking for? Touch and drag?

touch and drag i have the same result has your index.html, but i dont want to see that empty space outside the map, i want the map stop whend the edges reach the edges of the layout size 480x800px

I understand that but if you limit the drag like this it should be good?

yeah thats perfect how you did that?

There are many ways of doing it. Like checking the maps X and Y values. So for example if you don't want the map to go more than -600px to the left then setup the events like this: if maps x is less than -600 then set map X to -599

And do this to limit left, right, top and bottom scrolling <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

You can also do it with sprites like this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/100 ... 2/map.capx

There are many other ways to do it so I can't say this is the best one. But it works <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink">

Good example, —

How would you do to drag an entire layer instead of just a sprite ?

yeah it has to be possible to drag the lajyer instead a sprite, i have also a huge bug with this example, if you drag the map too far THEN collisions dont work anymore and the map image, leave the app screen.

imothep85 You should not be able to move the map too far if you have done it right. I guess you have on collision with the sprites then change the position of the map? You have to have "is overlapping" so it stops the map from going too far every tick.

As you can see in my example there is no way to move the map too far as it stops whatever you try to do.

How many objects are on the layer you need to move?

just the map

Ok, good. And if you don't have too many objects that needs to be dragged you could have a pin behavior on each object and pin them to the map sprite when they are created and they will move with the map while being dragged.

now i added a video player with format "ogv" for android but videos don't play when i export to intel xdk, under browsers the videos are played but inside intel xdk no, i don't know if i have to add a plugin inside the xdk project?
