Just tried doing the detection using AE5 and it works like a champ.
With the collisionListernerDemo, a couple really simple changes gets the
job done.
in the card script I added the following:
####
command startMove
if tMoving is empty then put false into tMoving
--put false into tMoving
put not tMoving into tMoving
mover
end startMove
command mover
if tMoving then
lock screen
set the loc of grc "grmypnt" to the mouseloc
unlock screen
send mover to me in 10 milliseconds
end if
end mover
####
In the button script that starts the demo listening I added a startmove
call so the final handler ends up as so:
####
--> all handlers
on mouseUp pMouseBtnNo
if "animationEngine" is not among the lines of the stacksInUse then
answer "This stack needs animationEngine 5 or higher to run."
exit mouseUp
end if
aeStopListeningForCollisions
local tList
set the flag of me to not the flag of me
if the flag of me then
-- set up graphics to be draggable
repeat with i=1 to the number of graphics
set the constrainRectangular of graphic i to the rect of this cd
-- graphics need to be opaque to be draggable
set the opaque of graphic i to true
end repeat
repeat with i = 2 to the number of graphics
--put the long id of graphic i &",bounds"& cr after tList
put the long id of graphic i & cr after tList
end repeat
-- remove trailing carriage return
delete char -1 of tList
set the aeListenForCollisionsWith of graphic 1 to tList
-- right now we assume all but graphic 1 are predators
-- you could set up lists for each graphic though
aeStartListeningForCollisions
set the label of me to "Stop listening for collisions"
else
aeStopListeningForCollisions
set the label of me to "Start listening for collisions"
end if
startMove -- my change
end mouseUp
####
I then created a grc named grmypnt and moved its layer to the back so that
it becomes the focus of the listener. It also needs to be moved to the back
so you can still click other items. (otherwise you're clicking the graphic
no matter WHERE the mouse is.
On moving the mouse around and over the other graphics, the output field
populates with the other graphics that are being mouseovered. Seems to work
pretty well.
