Here are downloadable Android Demo builds: http://reign-studios.com/MobileInputCapture/

 

Running on Samsung Galaxy S9 + DeX Dock

Running on x64 Chromebook

 

iOS, iPadOS support added!
Input feels pretty much identical to Android platform.

NOTE: sadly tvOS still hasn't unlocked mouse support and so only keyboard works on that platform atm. Its possible a HID driver could work but would require future investigation.

I see that there is InputCapture.GetMouseVelocity and InputCapture.GetMouseScroll but there is no GetMousePosition.
Is there a way to get the mouse position?

 

Mobile devices do not give you back the cursors position only the velocity.
You just use this to create your own virtual cursor if you need.

I may just add this virtual position for you as many people are confused as to why this doesn't exist.

 

Oh, I was under the impression that when an iPad had a keyboard with touch pad attached, the
NSEvent mouseLocation returned the actual mouse position for that device.
I will have to check a bit into that to see how other apps get that position.

 

iOS may provide a little more information in its API (can't remember off the top of my head atm) but Android 100% does not support this & thus not the correct way to model a cursor position thats portable for mobile platforms. Simulation is the only portable way here. This also applies to WASM if not mistaken.

 

Working on a update but you can add these fixes if you're running into them.

In the "AndroidCapture.cs" file "unityPlayer" field need to be changed from a "AndroidJavaObject" to a "AndroidJavaClass" or it will fail on some devices.


If you're using ProGuard R8 & Release you need to add this line in your "proguard-user.txt" file to prevent stripping.

 

2.0.4 has been submitted for Asset Store review and will include the fixes mentioned above for Android.
