ARRenderer Events

The ARRenderer widget has the following event associated with it:

doLayout Event

This event is invoked when widgets are placed inside a FlexContainer, FlexScrollContainer or a FlexForm. When this event is invoked the widget positions, widget dimensions, the hierarchy of the widget and the frame property of the widget is calculated. You must use the frame property in the event callback to modify the widget dimensions and positions, if required.

Syntax


doLayout()

Read/Write

Read + Write

Remarks

Note: The number of times this event invoked may vary per platform. It is not recommended to write business logic assuming that this function is invoked only once when there is a change in positional or dimensional properties. This event will not trigger when transformations are applied though widget is moved or scaled or rotated from its original location.

This event is used to set the layout properties of child widgets, and its peer widgets before the layout of the child widget is defined.

Example


//Sample code to set doLayout event callback to a button widget.
/*This code changes the top property of button2 and makes it appear below button1.*/
myForm.button1.doLayout=doLayoutButton1;


function doLayoutButton1(){

    myForm.button2.top = myForm.button1.frame.height;
}

Platform Availability

iOS, Android

onScrollWidgetPosition Event

This event callback is invoked by the platform when the widget location position gets changed on scrolling. The onScrollWidgetPosition event returns the positional coordinates of the widget's location with respect to the screen (screenX and screenY) and the parent container (frameX and frameY). This event is invoked asynchronously, and is not available for FlexForm widget.

Syntax


onScrollWidgetPosition()

Read/Write

Read + Write

Example


var LabelWdg = new voltmx.ui.Label(basicConf, layoutConf, pspConf);
form.add(LabelWdg);
LabelWdg.onScrollWidgetPosition = onScrollWidgetPositionCallBack;

function onScrollWidgetPositionCallBack(wdg, screenX, screenY, frameX, frameY) { //wdg : Widget that is registered for onScrollWidgetPosition.
    /*screenX : Position of widget with respect to 
the screen's X - coordinates (after downsizing the navigation bar and status bar).*/
    /*screenY : Position of widget with respect to the screen's Y - 
coordinates (after downsizing the navigation bar and status bar).*/
    //frameX : Position of widget with respect to parent container's X- coordinates.
    //frameY : Position of widget with respect to parent container's Y- coordinates.
}

Not Accessible from IDE
Android, iOS, SPA, and Windows

onTouchEnd Event

An event callback is invoked by the platform when the user touch is released from the touch surface.

Syntax


onTouchEnd ()

Optional Parameters

source

Handle to the widget reference on which the user touch has ended.

x

Specifies the x-coordinate with in the widget with respect to widget's co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.

y

Specifies the y- coordinate with in the widget with respect to widget's co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.

contextInfo

On devices that support 3D Touch, specifies a key-value pair where the value specifies the force of the touch. The value 1.0 represents the force of an average touch, as determined by the system.

Note: 3D Touch is available only on iOS 9.0 and later.

Read/Write

Read + Write

Remarks

This event is invoked asynchronously.

Example


function onTouchEndCallback(source, x, y, contextInfo) {
    if (contextInfo) {
        var force = contextInfo[“force”];
        voltmx.print(“value of force is” + force)
    }
}
Form1.widget1.onTouchEnd = onTouchEndCallback;

Platform Availability

iOS, Android, Windows, and SPA

onTouchMove Event

An event callback is invoked by the platform when the touch moves on the touch surface continuously until movement ends.

Syntax


onTouchMove ()

Optional Parameters

source

Handle to the widget reference on which touch moves.

x

Specifies the x-coordinate with in the widget with respect to widget's co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.

y

Specifies the y- coordinate with in the widget with respect to widget's co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.

contextInfo

On devices that support 3D Touch, specifies a key-value pair where the value specifies the force of the touch. The value 1.0 represents the force of an average touch, as determined by the system.

Note: 3D Touch is available only on iOS 9.0 and later.

Example


function onTouchMoveCallback(source, x, y, contextInfo) {
    if (contextInfo) {
        var force = contextInfo[“force”];
        voltmx.print(“value of force is” + force)
    }
    Form1.widget1.onTouchMove = onTouchMoveCallback;

Platform Availability

iOS, Android, Windows, and SPA

onTouchStart Event

An event callback is invoked by the platform when the user touches the touch surface.

Syntax


onTouchStart ()

Optional Parameters

source

Handle to the widget reference on which the user touches.

x

Specifies the X co-ordinate with in the widget with respect to widget's co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.

y

Specifies the Y co-ordinate with in the widget with respect to widget's co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.

contextInfo

On devices that support 3D Touch, specifies a key-value pair where the value specifies the force of the touch. The value 1.0 represents the force of an average touch, as determined by the system.

Note: 3D Touch is available only on iOS 9.0 and later.

        voltmx.print(“value of force is” + force)
    }
}
Form1.widget1.onTouchStart = onTouchStartCallback;
