Push a button

[snoopy78]

Hi,

I want to push a button with my mouse and afterthat my object should rotate for a special amount.

This works, but I had to push the button again and again.


def onButton(obj,state):
if obj == scene3.btnLeftRotate1:
if state == viz.DOWN:
object1.rotate(-1,0,0,'',viz.RELATIVE_LOCAL)

viz.callback(viz.BUTTON_EVENT,onButton)


I want to push the button one-time with my mouse and as long as I hold the button pressed, the object should move on and on.

You can use the vizact library to enable a timer while the button is down. Here is a simple script showing how to do this:import viz
import vizact
viz.go()

# Create model
model = viz.add('logo.ive',pos=(0,1,5))

# Create function to rotate model
def RotateModel():
model.setEuler(90*viz.elapsed(),0,0,viz.REL_LOCAL)

# Create disabled timer to call RotateModel function
rotateTimer = vizact.ontimer(0,RotateModel)
rotateTimer.setEnabled(False)

# Create button
rotateButton = viz.addButton(pos=(0.9,0.1,0))

# Enable rotate timer while button is pressed
vizact.onbuttondown(rotateButton,rotateTimer.setEn abled,True)
vizact.onbuttonup(rotateButton,rotateTimer.setEnab led,False)
