Hi everyone.

I want to develop a scrolling menu where we can slide the menu options with the index finger.

That's the best I could get so far:

SetWindowTitle("Sliding Fingers" )
SetWindowSize(1024,768,0)
SetVirtualResolution( 1024, 768 )

X as integer
Clicked as integer
dim Obj[10] as integer

Back=CreateSprite(0)
setspritesize(back,2048,128)
SetSpriteColor(back,256,256,0,256)
SetSpritePosition(back,0,GetVirtualHeight()/2-GetSpriteHeight(back)/2)

X=128

for i=1 to 10
	Obj[i]=CreateSprite(obj[i])
	setspritesize(obj[i],64,64)
	SetSpriteColor(obj[i],100,0,256,256)
	SetSpritePositionByOffset(obj[i],getspritex(back)+x,GetSpriteYByOffset(back))
	x=x+128
next i

do
	if GetPointerPressed()
		if GetSpriteHitTest(back,getpointerx(),getpointery())
			Clicked=1
			XCursorToSpriteDiff=GetPointerX()-GetSpriteX(back)
		endif
	endif
	
	if Clicked=1
		if GetPointerState()			
			SetSpritePosition(back,GetPointerX()-XCursorToSpriteDiff,getspritey(back))
			if getspritex(back)>0
				SetSpritePosition(back,0,GetVirtualHeight()/2-GetSpriteHeight(back)/2)
			elseif getspritex(back)+GetSpriteWidth(back)<GetVirtualWidth()
				SetSpritePosition(back,-GetVirtualWidth(),GetVirtualHeight()/2-GetSpriteHeight(back)/2)
			endif	
			x=128
			for i=1 to 10
				SetSpritePositionByOffset(obj[i],getspritex(back)+x,GetSpriteYByOffset(back))
				x=x+128
			next i
		else
			Clicked=0
		endif
	endif

sync()
loop

+ Code Snippet

do
	if GetPointerPressed()
		if GetSpriteHitTest(back,getpointerx(),getpointery())
			Clicked=1
			XCursorToSpriteDiff=GetPointerX()-GetSpriteX(back)
		endif
	endif
	
	if Clicked=1
		if GetPointerState()			
			SetSpritePosition(back,GetPointerX()-XCursorToSpriteDiff,getspritey(back))
			if getspritex(back)>0
				SetSpritePosition(back,0,GetVirtualHeight()/2-GetSpriteHeight(back)/2)
			elseif getspritex(back)+GetSpriteWidth(back)<GetVirtualWidth()
				SetSpritePosition(back,-GetVirtualWidth(),GetVirtualHeight()/2-GetSpriteHeight(back)/2)
			endif	
			x=128
			for i=1 to 10
				SetSpritePositionByOffset(obj[i],getspritex(back)+x,GetSpriteYByOffset(back))
				x=x+128
			next i
		else
			Clicked=0
		endif
	endif

	sync()
loop

The result is not smooth as scrolling in a phone. It seems the phones have an "inertia" feature so the objects keep moving after you slide. I'm sure you can come up with something much better.

Looks awesome, Markus!! Thanks!!

The only problem I found is that if we keep clicking in the end in a static point it keeps scrolling.

you mean if you will just click without scroll?
i try to stop the movement here if the distance the finger moved is to small.

I mean, let's say we click on 0,0 and move the cursor to 128,0 and then stop moving but keep clicking (like staying with the finger pressed but not moving). Right now the sprites are moving continuously.

I was thinking about that. In order to do the update after the milliseconds, you think the best method is to set a timer?

Thank you.

@hoyoyo80
you just need a modul which handle the input for your needings.
i made a slider bar example, you can find here in this agk threads or in online help examples.
