Hi I am trying to catch the mouse pointer position from "pointer-1--drag" event, however the position() and relativePosition() events return always 0,0, this is a brief outline of my Python class:

 

class PyHello(rvtypes.MinorMode):
   
    def __init__(self):
        rvtypes.MinorMode.__init__(self)
        
        self.init("pyhello",
        [("pointer-1--drag", self.pointerMove, "My pointer move event")],
        None)
        
    def pointerMove(self, event):
        print "rel = %f %f" % (event.relativePointer()[0], event.relativePointer()[1])
        print "ptr = %f %f" % (event.pointer()[0], event.pointer()[1])

The result is always:

ptr = 0.000000 0.000000
rel = 0.000000 0.000000

I am using RV 3.12.13.

Any hint? Thank you,

Michele

  Hi Mechele,

  I'm afraid that looks like a bug.  I'm opening a support ticket for you, and I'll also update the forum when we figure this out.

  Thanks for the report !

  Just to update the thread: yep, this was a bug.  Fixed now, and the fix will show up in the next release (RV 3.12.14).

  Cheers,

  Alan

  Hi Alan,

  iam trying to use this example as well to test some event binding.

   

  class PySideDockTest(rvtypes.MinorMode):
  
      def __init__(self):
        rvtypes.MinorMode.__init__(self)
  
        self.init("PySideDock", [("pointer-1--shift--push", self.pointerPush, "pointer-1--shift--push"),("pointer-1--shift--release", self.pointerRelease, "pointer-1--shift--release")], None)
  
     def pointerPush(self, event):
        print "push rel = %f %f" % (event.relativePointer()[0], event.relativePointer()[1])
        print "push ptr = %f %f" % (event.pointer()[0], event.pointer()[1])

  
     def pointerRelease(self, event):
        print "release rel = %f %f" % (event.relativePointer()[0], event.relativePointer()[1])
        print "release ptr = %f %f" % (event.pointer()[0], event.pointer()[1])

   

  With this example, shift+push event works and call pointerPush function, but when i shift+release it doesnt works.

  Any idea why ?

  terminal:

  push rel = 2147483904.000000 2147484160.000000
  push ptr = 230.000000 461.000000
  push rel = 2147483904.000000 2147483904.000000
  push ptr = 226.000000 369.000000
  push rel = 2147483904.000000 2147484160.000000
  push ptr = 290.000000 393.000000
