LEAN ⚡️ Touch / GUI / Texture / Localization / Transition / Pool

Yes I updated between two very different versions of lean touch but first I deleted the old folder of lean touch.

 

Where is this error coming from? If it's from your code then you will have to update it to match the new event names. It's now called OnAnySelected.

 

Any update coming to "Lean GUI Shapes" ? I'm waiting for "Gradient" feature

 

Hi Carlos,
I'm using LeanTouch but to drag a clickable sprite around (LeanFingerTap + LeanDragTranslate + LeanSelectableByFinger). It works well in Editor but on Mobile it usually does not work, but starts working at some point.
It seems to be something with the selectables. Are there differences in mobile and PC implementations? Could the timeScale affect thigs somehow as I'm messing with it in the game?


*Update* What I noticed recently in Editor:
- LeanSelectByFinger properly shows that my item is selected when I hold down the LMB.
- LeanSelectableByFinger though shows as selected only if I start dragging the LMB a bit.

Why is that?

*UPDATE 2*
NVM, I removed RequiresSelecatble check from FingerTap and things started working somehow.

 

Hi, does leantouch+ support the new input system of unity ? i am getting compilation error in a new project with just LeanTouch+.
Thank

 

Installing Lean Touch + (v3.0), Unity 2020.3.31, Input System 1.3 - I'm getting the error message:

Assets\Lean\Common\Scripts\LeanInput.cs(3,30): error CS0234: The type or namespace name 'InputSystem' does not exist in the namespace 'UnityEngine' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

After changing Lean common Plus (pic below) , I get a lot of error messages along the lines of:
Assets\Plugins\CW\LeanCommon+\Examples\Scripts\LeanSelectedString.cs(59,24): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'LeanSelectable' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

 

When I build for Android, the buttons do not work. I am building for Quest 2. Any idea ? I am using the latest LeanGUI. Does it use the old input system ?

 

Prblem with multiple objects being manipulated at once.
I'm instatiating multiple prefabs in an AR scene, each with a few Lean components (drag, rotate and scale), see pic.
There is also the LeanTouch component in my scene.
However, all my prefabs are manipulated together. How can I fix this?

 

I was struggling with this as well, here's what is working for me if u are using simple Unity 3D Objects:

on LeanTouch, add LeanFingerDown and LeanSelectByFinger:



make sure to fill the OnFinger Event on LeanFingerDown as in the screenshot.

on your leanContainer, add LeanSelectableByFinger and then fill it to the RequiredSelectable field in your drag, rotate and scale components:



This should work for cubes, spheres etc. What doesn't work for me yet is if I use imported 3D Models. The LeanSelectableByFinger never gets selected (it works fine if I check "SelfSelected", but then it is always selected and not only if the finger is on the object). Anyone knows how to fix this?

EDIT: my bad, just had to add a MeshCollider to the 3D object, working now.

 

I'm having trouble with LeanTooltip leaving "orphaned" tooltips behind when the gameobject it's hovering over suddenly becomes disabled or destroyed. What's the recommended action for this situation?

 

Hi Carlos.
Im using the localization asset, Im reading translation from a txt file with ("Lean Language CSV" script).
Its possible assign a translation with multiple lines of text (w break lines) to one key/phrase?
my problem:
all the lines from the txt file are readed, but if one key have a translation with multiple lines only the first line of the key/phrase is stored (the line before the break line)

 

Hello @Darkcoder !

I'd like to have an ability to choose which certain mouse buttons trigger touches (to limit the others from doing so, like, not allow right button click for instance).
In

LeanTouch

I've found that it just tests all the button indices

Code (CSharp):

1. for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++)
2. {
3.     mouseSet |= CwInput.GetMouseIsHeld(i);
4.     mouseUp  |= CwInput.GetMouseWentUp(i);
5. }

So the question is: can I make sort of pull request to implement that feature? It requires just few lines of code to add the indices array to the editor script and handle them like this instead:

Code (CSharp):

1. foreach (var i in MouseButtons)
2. {
3.     mouseSet |= CwInput.GetMouseIsHeld(i);
4.     mouseUp  |= CwInput.GetMouseWentUp(i);
5. }

 

Has anyone ever tested this LeanTouch with ARCore / ARKit? I can't seem to get it working and I'm not sure why. The game builds but crashes on startup past the splash screen. I'm pretty sure LeanTouch might be the culprit (or the way I'm using it)

Anyone encountered issues with it before or has tested and got this working?

 

Hi all - with the lack of Playmaker actions, I am finding it difficult to understand how to send information from Lean Touch Events to a Playmaker FSM. For example - how would I got about sending the On World (Vector 3) value from a Lean Finger Down to a Playmaker FSM? I can only seem to "Broadcast Events" to FSM's.

The reason I ask is because I'd like to detect whether a player touches the left or right side of the screen, and then power my character accordingly in that direction with my FSM logic.

Thanks in advance.

 

Hi there we are new using your fabolous plugin (leantouch) but we have a doubt.

He have dragable items with components Lean Drag Translate and Lean Selectable by finger to move them.
We have a door over the items with Lean Finger Tap to open them that with a script opens it.

The problem is that if you try to drag an item behind the door it moves! how we can avoid this behaiviour?

 

hi everybody, what kind of licence does lean localization has? am i free to use it for a game that i will publish? best regards
Davide

 

Hey, I'm using Leantouch for an AR project, for dragging an object. it works good, but you can't drag [keep the object] and physically move! I mean I'm looking for a way to somehow equip it once I drag, now it seems everything is based on the screen raycasting, and once I drag and move physically, it stays!
any Idea?
thanks

 

Hi there, I am using Lean Touch for a project running on Android using the new UIToolkit package to build a UI. Since this UI is not attached to a game-object it is not on a specific layer and cannot be excluded by LeanTouch. Is there a way to tell LeanTouch to not activate certain Events when an event occurs over this UI? Thanks in advance!

 

Hi,
Is there a way to get a smooth carve without using Blur?
In my scene, I'm using "Lean Box" to make a mask for my image.
- Canves.
-- LeanBox + Mask.
--- Image.
The problem is I can't get a smooth curves without using Blur. When I do use Blur I get pixels!!

 

Hi,

I had LeanTouch+ in my project and everything was working fine. I imported LeanPool and got errors in the form:

error CS0012: The type 'CwEditor' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'CW.Common, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

in LeanSelectableByFinger.cs and LeanSelectByFinger.cs

So, the project doesn't build now. I added a reference to CwEditor by using the suggestion in VS2022, but no change.

How can I fix this?

 

Hi, I need some help.
I don't understand from the examples how to implement the following. I have 2D sprites on the screen and I want to drag a sprite when I drag it with a finger/mouse (and also a different behavior for swiping).
But I can't make them move.
I have the Lean Touch object in the hierarchy, the gameobjects with the sprites have LeanDragTranslate with the correct camera and LeanSelectableByFinger but they won't budge. Not even if I replace LeanSelectableByFinger with Lean SelectByFinger. What am I missing?

 

Hi there. I bought Lean Touch + and I am trying to use Lean Selectable Dial. I'd like the user to rotate the object from side-on. So they can rotate a cylinder from the side of the cylinder. On any object I use, including the dials in the examples, the raycasting seems to go through the object and rotates the object sometimes the right way, sometimes the wrong way. It works fine when the camera is pointing end on, but along the edge it doesn't work so well. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks Carlos.

 

For Lean Pool.. could you add a method like
public static void DespawnAll(T) so we can just use the same prefab we used in Spawn(T) to also Despawn all of that type... currently using DespawnAll() ...but it wipes all spawn clone instances

 

it's very strange that LeanTouch v2.3 works perfectly (in scene view, SImulator and Device), but when upgrading to 3.0.1 the scene view works, but NOT the Simulator, and even worse neither on device.
i have an old component still using OnMouseDown() / OnMouseDrag()

maybe i should update these methods?
but i get no warnings at all....
now gone back to LeanTouch 2.3.5 just to keep the game working...

 

Hi Lean Team

for the "Lean GUI Shapes"

"LeanLine" between two Objects, it is possible to connect several objects as a chain, not only two objects?

 

it work

 

i just wanted to LIMIT the Swipe area detection to a portion of the screen (say to avoid the top bar in the app).

but i can't find an easy way to tell the Swipe component to not send events if Y > (ScreenHeight - 200), or to contrain it to a defined area.

is it me or is it LeanTouch too difficult to configure?

thank you
stefano

 

Does LeanTouch work with the new input system (Input System UI Input Module)? I'm doing some basic things with LeanTouch (`LeanTouch.Fingers.Count` for example) and using `LeanGesture.GetPinchScale()` to do some pinch on images, but it doesn't seem to work with the new input system. My code works with the old input system. Not sure if I set something up wrong with the new input system - I enabled EnhancedTouch via `UnityEngine.InputSystem.EnhancedTouch.EnhancedTouchSupport.Enable();` for example.

Edit: So the issue seems to be a combination of hardware and the new input system. We were getting double clicks when using touch, which I fixed by changing the "Pointer Behavior" from "Single Mouse or Pen" to "All Pointers As Is". I don't really know why this is needed. The 2nd issue seems to be some of our computers don't have multi-touch drivers, so the 2nd finger wasn't registering with the computer and so obviously Unity/LeanTouch wasn't picking it up.

 

Hello！when using Lean Localization i meet a question. How can i use the
“
Lean.Localization.LeanLocalization.SetCurrentLanguageAll("English");
”
in my script ？i found it cant be used directly，there are some errs like“NameSpace”...
can you help me?

 

Try "using Lean." and see what showing up.

 

Hello, Im using LeanGUI and i need to add a variable to the LeanToggle class but it doesnt show up in the inspector, anyone knows why and how to solve it?

 

I just deleted the Editor part and works just fine.

 

Hello,
there is a way to auto translate all languages in a Phrase by onekey.
I added some scrips in “LeanPhrase_Editor” .In fact these codes are original.
I am a code beginner, and I know there may be some immaturity in this.For all that I hope I can provide you with ideas or helps.Thank you for the free plugins！

var title1 = new GUIContent("AutoTranslateOthers");

menu.AddItem(title1, false, () =>
{
foreach (var otherEntry in tgt.Entries)
{
//if (entry != otherEntry && string.IsNullOrEmpty(otherEntry.Text) == false)
if (entry != otherEntry)
{
var textInput = entry.Text;
var languageInput = default(LeanLanguage);
var languageOutput = default(LeanLanguage);

if (LeanLocalization.CurrentLanguages.TryGetValue(entry.Language, out languageInput) == true && LeanLocalization.CurrentLanguages.TryGetValue(otherEntry.Language, out languageOutput) == true)
{
var languageCodeInput = languageInput.TranslationCode;
var languageCodeOutput = languageOutput.TranslationCode;

var textOutput = default(string);

if (TryAutoTranslate(languageCodeInput, languageCodeOutput, textInput, ref textOutput) == true)
{
Undo.RecordObject(tgt, "Auto Translate");

otherEntry.Text = textOutput;

EditorUtility.SetDirty(tgt);
}
else
{
Debug.LogError("Failed to auto translate text for some reason.");
}
}
else
{
menu.AddDisabledItem(title1, false);
}
}
else
{
menu.AddDisabledItem(title1, false);
}
}
});

 

Is there a way to subscribe to LeanMultiPull events?

I have several Lean Touch components used in my scene. Instead of assigning their references in the inspector, I'm trying to subscribe to them and set their selectables through a script.

More specifically, I'm trying to get the delta and drag distance of the first finger with a selectable required, and the delta and drag distance of a second finger. This seemed like the best way to do that.

I tried subscribing to the public event in the script, but I must be misunderstanding how to subscribe as this asks for an object reference:

Lean.Touch.LeanTouch.OnFingerTap += HandleFingerTap;
Lean.Touch.LeanMultiPull.OnVector += HandleVector2;

Is there a way to subscribe to events on the components, or would there be a better way to achieve this?

 

Hi all!
Can you help me? I need to get an object from the pool and dynamically change its variable. I can't figure out how to do it. Any help will be appreciated

 

Hi Carlos. Its sad you are not responding anymore. I bought multiple assets of yours. Now Leantouch(+) is not working at all when I build on Mobile Android ( Unity 2022.2.10). That's really sad, as the customer support seems to have ended. Now I have to remove it. I spent 2 days finding out that the problem is with lean touch ( 3.0.1), which I absolutely did not assume at all, as it worked in past projects. Sad. Hope you are fine.

 

Hi LeanTouchers

I would like to pan & zoom an image using LeanTouch+.
The image has a maximum rect bounds and also max/min scale.

Currently I have a ScrollRect that handles paning which also makes sure that the content stays inside the bounds.

So far, I was unsuccessful in attaching a LeanPinch that nicely works to scale the image. It captures the touch everywhere but the image. Furthermore, the scale has no sensible boundries.

What would be a good way to solve this?
I really like the smooth scaling of LeanPinch and the fact that you can directly tell it to scale relatively to the pinch point.

 

On LeanTransition, Animation Repeater, any idea why the clock keep ticking (Remaining Time), even though the Count has reached 0?

 

Need a help! Does LeanTransition allow to tween in numbers? Like counting up scores gradually

 

Hi Carlos!
First of all, I want to thank you for creating lean touch because it's really good.
I am a beginner in mobile development. I using LeanTouch. My problem is that I have a cube that I want to control with one finger so that I can move it anywhere on the screen. This also works according to the "12 Transform" example. I took out the script (rotate, scale) that is not necessary for movement.
The problem is that if I touch it with a second finger, the movement is also distorted. How can I limit control to one finger??

 

Firstly thanks for making this really amazing asset!
For my use case I wonder what I need to do to drag UI items onto a 3d object
I couldn't find any example like that - and would love to have help to achieve it!

Canvas

• InventoryPanel (panel with canvas group)
  UIitem1"Key" (UIButton)

ARCamera (represents the players view)
3D GameObject with Tag and 3d collider loaded into AR game world
To work in mobile and computer

 

HI, thanks for this amazing asset but I get a weard error in my game.

transform.position assign attempt for 'Background (1)' is not valid. Input position is { NaN, NaN, -100.000000 }

I tried the examples in another project where they work, but if I try to implement the script into my project it gives me this error

 

Hi, I've bought a few of your paid plugins and enjoyed them in other projects. Now I'm attempting to use Lean Transition and I was wondering what the best way to make a group of objects follow behind a moving target would be? Think Yoshi's Island where the eggs/objects follow Yoshi in their path until each egg reaches a spot close enough to stop. I have a custom class to move them along the jump arc which works decently well but is not 100% perfect, and I wanted to try this plugin plus others before committing to my method and polishing it further. I have stored the position of the target/player along their jump arc, but I'm not sure of the best practices for this plugin in particular.

https://forum.unity.com/threads/dotween-hotween-v2-a-unity-tween-engine.260692/page-62#post-4492342

That post from a couple years ago in another thread mentions this is possible, but I didn't see it mentioned in the examples. Also, I'd like to do this all from code most likely, unless it isn't possible.

Edit: nvm, I just realized it was mentioning a different asset. I confused them with yours due to the Lean name.

 

Hi everyone! I have a problem. In some cases localization doesn`t work correctly. I use LeanLocalized TextMeshProUGUI on TextMestProText component and in case of current language are ukrainian it work normaly but if current language set to english - I get fallback text in text component, I have the same localization key in each CSV localization files. How I can solve it?

 

Lean Localization: What code can I use to see which language is selected?

 

Use static method LeanLocalization.GetFirstCurrentLanguage(). You will get your current language name in string format

 

LeanPool - it says it can pool class with LeanClassPool . is it depricated? cant find anything in documentation or add in components

 

Is there already an update for the UI Toolkit to use "StartedOverGUI" and "IsOnGUI"?

 

I found a solution that works for me. I think this is just a piece of the whole pie but it works for my current situation.

1. Create a manipulator and add it to the root element.
2. Create a mask and place it as needed.
3. Set the value "StartedOverUI" for the finger with a function when OnPointerDownOverUI gets fired.

hi,
i have a problem with the following setup :


i want to make a rotation with 90 degree step. Normally it works ok, but if i swipe my screen until the previous rotation is done, my object rotates to the unexpected angle:


can you please help me to get rid of this problem? maybe I can block execution of second swipe until first is done or something?

thanks for your help!
