interface PointerPresentEvent extends PointerEvent {
    screenPosition: number[];
    localPosition: number[];
}

An extended collection of information relating to pointer events, including positional data.

Variables

Section titled “Variables”
VariableTypeDescription
screenPositionnumber[]An array returning the screen position of the pointer event.
localPositionnumber[]An array returning the local position of the pointer event.

Example

Section titled “Example”
symbol.nodes.Plane.on("pointerdown", (e) => {
  // Runs when pointerdown occurs on the Plane node
  // The argument e contains useful info about this event:


  // Stores the screenPosition of the pointer [x,y]
  var pointerScreenPosition = e.screenPosition;


  // Stores the localPosition of the pointer [x,y,z], in the plane's local coordinate system
  var pointerLocalPosition = e.localPosition;


  // Stores the ID of the pointer as a number, starting at 0
  var pointerNumber = e.pointerId;


  // Stores whether or not the pointer is currently down, as a boolean
  var isPointerDown = e.pointerDown;


  // Stores whether or not the pointer is the primary pointer (the first to touch down), as a boolean
  var isPointerPrimary = e.isPrimary;
});
