"AddEvent" and "buttonUp/buttonDown"

[Byak@]

if i'm use

addevent("button1",click,"b_click")

it work fine.but if i'm use

addevent("imagebutton1",buttonup,"b_click")

it's not work.why?

[Cableguy]

The b4p imagebutton does NOT support buttonup or buttondown, only the click event..
To Trap those events, you must use the door lib, and add the event from it...

[Byak@]

stop!you not right!imagebutton support buttonup and buttondown!when i creat this event from IDE it's work fine.

[Cableguy]

Open the IDE in the form designer, add an image button, select it and choose EVENTS... only the click event is visible FROM WITHIN basic4ppc...

[Byak@]

and what about it?

[Cableguy]

Ok, Sorry!!!
I'm at work and I only have the 5.5 version of the IDE, in my work PC, but remeber that the events name are case sensitive...
So you should try "ButtonUp" and "ButtonDown"....

[Byak@]

nothing to sorry,all ok =)

i'm try some variants and what i'm see:
when i'm use

sub app_start
form1.show
addevent("imagebutton1",ButtonDown,"b1")
end sub

sub b1
msgbox(1)
end sub

it's not work BUT when i'm use

sub app_start
form1.show
addevent("imagebutton1",ButtonDown,"b1")
end sub

sub b1
msgbox(1)
end sub

sub imagebutton1_ButtonDown

end sub

it's work!!!
but it's not good,my programm contain ~30 buttons
how can i add event without creating it with IDE

[agraham]

Actually the event names are not case-sensitive in B4ppc. It is only when using the Door library that things become case-sensitive. This seems to be an IDE bug. Both legacy and compiled apps add the event OK (in version 6.42 at least), the IDE doesn't.

agraham please help me!how add 1 event for many imagebuttons?
event "buttondown".i'm use b4p 6.30

[agraham]

Various ways. If they are labelled sequentially then something like this.

Sub App_Start
  Form1.Show
  For i = 1 To 30
    AddEvent("ImageButton" & i, click, "Down")
  Next        
End Sub

Sub Down
  Msgbox(Sender)
End Sub
