Android Question Changing LongClick delay?

[klarsys]

I want to change delay after which LongClick() event is raised for a button.

I think below code will work, but I don't know how to implement it in B4A:

I don't know if you can change the long click duration for a button.

But you can do it with the Touch event.
For a Panel you can use it's B4A Touch event routine.
For a Button you need to set the SetOnTouchListener with the reflection library.
The attached test program shows the routines for both a Panel and a Button.
The routine for the Button could be used for any other view.

In Activity_Create:

Private refbtnTest As Reflector
refbtnTest.Target = btnTest
refbtnTest.SetOnTouchListener("btnTest_Touch")

The routine for the Button:

Sub btnTest_Touch (ViewTag As Object, Action As Int, X As Float, Y As Float, MotionEvent As Object) As Boolean
    Private v As View
    v = Sender
  
    Select Action
    Case Activity.ACTION_DOWN
        Time0 = DateTime.Now
        Activity.Title = "Down"
    Case Activity.ACTION_MOVE
        Activity.Title = "Move"
    Case Activity.ACTION_UP
        Activity.Title = "Up"
        If X > 0 And X < v.Width And Y > 0 And Y < v.Height Then
            If DateTime.Now - Time0 > LongClickTime Then
                ToastMessageShow("Button LongClick", False)
            Else
                ToastMessageShow("Button Click", False)
            End If
        End If
    End Select
    Return True    'Consumes the event
End Sub

But you can do it with the Touch event.

Thank you!!!

I am using this example "Touch_LongClick" to create a LongClick event of 3 seconds.
However, irrespective of the "LongClickTime" I set, I always receive:
ToastMessageShow("Button Click", False).
It seems that the:

If DateTime.Now - Time0 > LongClickTime Then

is never called.
I am using Android 5.1
