public class InputListener
extends Object
implements EventListener

EventListener for low-level input events. Unpacks InputEvents and calls the appropriate method. By default the methods here do nothing with the event. Users are expected to override the methods they are interested in, like this:

 actor.addListener(new InputListener() {
        public boolean touchDown (InputEvent event, float x, float y, int pointer, int button) {
                Gdx.app.log("Example", "touch started at (" + x + ", " + y + ")");
                return false;
        }
 
        public void touchUp (InputEvent event, float x, float y, int pointer, int button) {
                Gdx.app.log("Example", "touch done at (" + x + ", " + y + ")");
        }
 });

Method Details

handle

public boolean handle(Event e)

Try to handle the given event, if it is an InputEvent.

If the input event is of type InputEvent.Type.touchDown and InputEvent.getTouchFocus() is true and touchDown(InputEvent, float, float, int, int) returns true (indicating the event was handled) then this listener is added to the stage's touch focus so it will receive all touch dragged events until the next touch up event.

Specified by:

handle in interface EventListener

Returns:

true if the event should be considered handled by scene2d.

touchDown

public boolean touchDown(InputEvent event,
 float x,
 float y,
 int pointer,
 int button)

Called when a mouse button or a finger touch goes down on the actor. If true is returned, this listener will have touch focus, so it will receive all touchDragged and touchUp events, even those not over this actor, until touchUp is received. Also when true is returned, the event is handled.

See Also:

• InputEvent

touchUp

public void touchUp(InputEvent event,
 float x,
 float y,
 int pointer,
 int button)

Called when a mouse button or a finger touch goes up anywhere, but only if touchDown previously returned true for the mouse button or touch. The touchUp event is always handled.

See Also:

• InputEvent

touchDragged

public void touchDragged(InputEvent event,
 float x,
 float y,
 int pointer)

Called when a mouse button or a finger touch is moved anywhere, but only if touchDown previously returned true for the mouse button or touch. The touchDragged event is always handled.

See Also:

• InputEvent

mouseMoved

public boolean mouseMoved(InputEvent event,
 float x,
 float y)

Called any time the mouse is moved when a button is not down. This event only occurs on the desktop. When true is returned, the event is handled.

See Also:

• InputEvent

enter

public void enter(InputEvent event,
 float x,
 float y,
 int pointer,
 @Null
 Actor fromActor)

Called any time the mouse cursor or a finger touch is moved over an actor. On the desktop, this event occurs even when no mouse buttons are pressed (pointer will be -1).

Parameters:

fromActor - May be null.

See Also:

• InputEvent

exit

public void exit(InputEvent event,
 float x,
 float y,
 int pointer,
 @Null
 Actor toActor)

Called any time the mouse cursor or a finger touch is moved out of an actor. On the desktop, this event occurs even when no mouse buttons are pressed (pointer will be -1).

Parameters:

toActor - May be null.

See Also:

• InputEvent

scrolled

public boolean scrolled(InputEvent event,
 float x,
 float y,
 float amountX,
 float amountY)

Called when the mouse wheel has been scrolled. When true is returned, the event is handled.

keyDown

public boolean keyDown(InputEvent event,
 int keycode)

Called when a key goes down. When true is returned, the event is handled.

keyUp

public boolean keyUp(InputEvent event,
 int keycode)

Called when a key goes up. When true is returned, the event is handled.

keyTyped

public boolean keyTyped(InputEvent event,
 char character)

Called when a key is typed. When true is returned, the event is handled.

Parameters:

character - May be 0 for key typed events that don't map to a character (ctrl, shift, etc).
