I need to get the view at a point on the screen for later processing, so I use an overlaid panel all over the activity to get x and y.
Then I have a sub that sets a global variable created in sub Globals
ViewToMove as View
to the control at these coordinates :
I am puzzled because sometimes it works as expected, but I also get errors view not initialized (below).
It looks as if somehow ViewToMove no longer points to the view it was assigned in ViewAtXY.
What am I missing ?
main_pnltouch_touch (B4A line: 1585)
Log("Drag " & ViewToMove.Tag)
java.lang.RuntimeException: Object should first be initialized (View).

PS : I looked through the forum, in particular https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/variables-objects-in-basic4android.8385/
and it looks as the variable should keep its value, since I am not changing it.
