iOS Question Button Down and Up Event?

[techknight]

Is there a way to get a Button Down, and Up event like android?

I need something so while I am pressing a button, the app is performing a function, but stops as soon as I release it.

Works in android, but not sure how to do this in iOS?

Actually just bumped into SwiftButton for XUI, Maybe I can make that work with some code mods?

can't you use the touch method?

it has press, move, release of which you can use press & release for you down and up events

Edit: sorry, I just saw 'button'... I tend to create my own 'buttons' by just using labels or images.

I use often Panels / Panes also for button functions.
Then, using the Xui library you are even cross platform.

Darn. SwiftButton isnt going to work because the compiler is complaining that it is declared twice! so it must be bundled in some other library. This is preventing me from modifying the class to suit what I need.

And Swiftbutton isnt showing up in the designer customview either.

Nevermind I found it. it was in XUI Views. I just removed it out of that library. I could just simply copy it in but eh.

I modified the code a tiny bit to include an Up event. Nothing major. Working fine for me.
