Scripting/SClickable

The SClickable class provides tools to work with the Clickable component, which is responsible for interacting with the object through clicking on it.

Properties

Tooltip

string Tooltip {get;set;}

A hint that pops up when the mouse is hovering over the GameObject.

hostObject = Space.Host.ExecutingObject;

hostObject.AddClickable();

Space.Log(hostObject.Clickable.Tooltip);
-- Prints an empty string to the console - Tooltip is empty upon initializing.
hostObject.Clickable.Tooltip = "I am clickable!";

-- Now, when a mouse is hovered for a few seconds over the object, "I am clickable!" will appear.

Members

AddExtraAction

void AddExtraAction (string name, string tooltip, Action e)

Add a new action for the object to perform when clicked. Can be useful for providing miltuple choice of an action on click.

hostObject = Space.Host.ExecutingObject;

hostObject.AddClickable();

function ClickMe ()

Space.Log("I was clicked!");

end

hostObject.Clickable.AddExtraAction ("Click me", "Prints I was clicked! to the console", ClickMe);

AddExtraAction

void AddExtraAction (string name, string tooltip, Closure e)

Add a new action for the object to perform when clicked. Can be useful for providing miltuple choice of an action on click.

hostObject = Space.Host.ExecutingObject;

hostObject.AddClickable();

function ClickMeAndCount ()

local n = 0;

return function ()

n = n+1;

Space.Log("I was clicked " .. n .. " times!");

end

end

local f = ClickMeAndCount ();
hostObject.Clickable.AddExtraAction ("Click me and count", "Prints to the console how many times I was clicked", f);

-- Hint: try adding the action from the example above to this script - now you can choose from 2 actions when you click!

ClearActions

void ClearActions ()

Removes all actions from the clickable GameObject.

hostObject = Space.Host.ExecutingObject;

hostObject.AddClickable();

function ClickMe ()

Space.Log("I was clicked!");

end
function ClickAndClear ()

Space.Log("No more actions!");

hostObject.Clickable.ClearActions ();

end

hostObject.Clickable.AddExtraAction ("Click me", "Prints I was clicked! to the console", ClickMe);

hostObject = Space.Host.ExecutingObject;

hostObject.AddClickable();
local deltaPos = Vector.New(0,0,1);

function MakeMeMove ()

hostObject.WorldPosition = hostObject.WorldPosition + deltaPos;

end

hostObject.Clickable.OnClick (MakeMeMove);

-- Now, every time an object is clicked, it moves by 1 in the positive Z direction.

OnClick

void OnClick (Closure e)

hostObject = Space.Host.ExecutingObject;

hostObject.AddClickable();
