...touch empty space and register a miss?

Ok so I have this game Zen Hopper

It's a simple game i'm looking to take to Phone 8 as a test project. In this version, it's working as it should overall.. but what I need to also do is register a MISS, if they touch the screen, but fail to touch a log.

I can't figure out a good approach for this. I'm sure it's simple, but I'm still pretty new to C2. In my logic, I can't seem to invert some of the game rules.

seems like there should be some way to say "touching the screen, but not touching log object".

Thanks!

Construct has the ability to invert conditions (rightclick on it -> invert).

So: on touch start, is touching log object (inverted) should do the trick

thanks for the tip! However it seems that any time i right click, invert is grayed out. Is there something more i have to do in order for a condition to be invert-able?

my attempt was like this, as a tester:

touch - on touched "log" - create object "cloud" at touch x , y...

I already wrote the correct code:

on any touch start AND is touching log object (inverted): do stuff

Some conditions can't be inverted because of some issues they could cause on the code , because logic says so ^^

See the post below for more info

The ones that can't be inverted are triggers and many system events. Stuff like key pressed, collision with, functions, ... . Also loops and some other stuff where it wouldn't make sense.
