Clicking vs Dragging

Using a when moved can help test if mouse is being “dragged” in this case…

Note: A wee bit more testing reveals that after: 0.1 seconds seems to work better.

As my old method doesn’t work anymore for singe reason, I tried this method with mixed results.
Has anyone gotten a good method working to have the orbital camera not click things while dragging-to-orbit?

Thanks!

I’m having this same issue. The “when clicked” puzzle seems to be triggered when the mouse is pressed, not released. Is there a reason for this? Is there a way of allowing the user to orbit an object without trigger clicks everywhere?

One way I had (cumbersome) is to have a toggle switch button in the GUI that makes a variable, say, “rotate” true or false, then in your click puzzle Check if rotate is false in order to continue puzzles in the click puzzle.

If true, only the rotating happens.

ALSO if your camera has its distance to the object locked , you can have an invisible html div …and using the bind html puzzle have it cover the screen space of the object.

Then you can use the html event puzzles to make the mouse/pointer events more accurate with mouseup etc, to distinguish it from just mousedown

OR… Hah…even more simple…
Just put the html mouseup puzzle IN the click event puzzle to check if it happens after the click.
