AppGameKit Classic Chat / getSpriteHit doesn't work with animated sprites?

I use getSpriteHit() to detect the pointer clicking on an image (a button). I changed the sprite to an animated sprite so I can have separate images for the on and off states of the button. Now getSpriteHit() doesn't register the sprite.

I've tried manually setting the sprite shape defining the box, but it still isn't detected.

I use the same way, and it work perfectly.
Have you done a Button Manager with array or vector?
Cycle it and get if the hit is in the box.

Do in this way:
- Is the pointer pressed?
- Is the pointer released?
- Is the hit inside the button rectangle?
- Call the function

Ah, don't use SHAPE 3 on the button, but the BOX one!!

Long life to Steve!

I did use shape 2 (box) to auto create it. Then I manually defined the box with setShapeBox. Just wouldn't work. My buttons are in an array that I loop through. What I ended up having to do was the old fashion is my pointer within this box area. Not a huge issues since I'm looping through all the buttons anyway.

I always use GetSpriteHitTest(id, GetPointerX() , GetPointerY()) for user input. GetSpriteHit always gave odd results when sprites are layered on top of each other. I think it works better when sorting is explicitly turned on, but I always felt more secure with GetSpriteHitTest on user input.

That's fine with me since I don't care about selecting sprites hidden under other sprites.
