First, Director (12) is started and the following script is described.

Movie script

on startMovie

_touches.registerGesture ([#swipeRightGesture:#handleSwipeRight])

--It recognizes also by "on prepareMovi" or "on startMovie".

end

on handleSwipeRight

member("momo").text = the long time & "start"

--code to handle Right Swipe

end

"on startMovie" is recommended although recognized also by "on prepareMovie" or "on startMovie". Those with a possibility of stopping moving by "on prepareMovie" when another Handler is put in.

And use a movie script by a property inspector. This is important. Unless it comes out, the Handler written in here does not move.

If it moves by Director in order to move by ios, an error will come out.It is published and used for ios.

I've got the left and right gestures working okay, but becuase the handler is in the movie script and not the frame script I'm having problems changing the destination of the gesture. It's okay if the swipes are alway going to the previous or next marker. But it gets more complex if I want to start having the playhead going to different frames.

I ended up creating a global varaible to determine which frame is the next destination. The variable is set in the frame script.

Movie Script

on startMovie

_touches.registerGesture([#swipeRightGesture:#handleSwipeRight])

_touches.registerGesture([#swipeLeftGesture:#handleSwipeLeft])

global gwhatframeLeft

global gwhatframeRight

set gwhatframeLeft = "2"

set gwhatframeRight = "60" --last frame

end

on handleSwipeLeft

global gwhatframeLeft

go to frame gwhatframeLeft

end

on handleSwipeRight

global gwhatframeRight

go to frame gwhatframeRight

end

Frame Script (Frame "2")

on exitFrame me

go to the frame

global gwhatFrameLeft

set gwhatFrameLeft = "3"

global gwhatFrameRight

set gwhatFrameRight = "1" --first frame

end

This seems like an awkward way to do this (It will make testing a lot more time consuming) - is there a more stright forward way.

The playhead is on the frame correct frame when the gesture is made. It's the first frame of the movie.

I added the hanndles to the movie script...

on startMovie

_touches.registerGesture([#swipeRightGesture:#handleSwipeRight])

_touches.registerGesture([#swipeLeftGesture:#handleSwipeLeft])

end

on handleSwipeRight

go previous

end

on handleSwipeRight

go next

end

And in the frame script...

on exitFrame me

go to the frame

handleSwipeRight

handleSwipeLeft

end

This sort of worked - but the it flashed back and forwards between frames without the screen being touched.

I changed the frame script to the folowing and it worked...

on exitFrame me

go to the frame

end

on handleSwipeRight

go previous

end

on handleSwipeLeft

go next

end

Is it possible the frameScript isn't "active" when the gesture is made? That is, that the playhead isn't on the frame in question. Try placing your #handleSwipeRight and #handleSwipeLeft handlers in a movie script

I'm using the following script to enable the swipe gestures on iOS...

Movie Script

on startMovie

_touches.registerGesture([#swipeRightGesture:#handleSwipeRight])

_touches.registerGesture([#swipeLeftGesture:#handleSwipeLeft])

end

Frame Script

on handleSwipeRight

go next

end

However this dosen't work - ie nothing happens when I swipe the screen (on either the iphone iOS7 or ipad iOS6. Is this how the code should be implemented?
