any ETA on custom controls support ? #109

Closed rasterknight closed 6 years ago

rasterknight commented 6 years ago

I want to have controls on top of video (overlay) and looks like I cannot do this with non-custom controls ?

So I tried using HTML custom ones, works fine, except I dont receive callbacks like: MixerInteractive.GetButton("BUTTON_ID").

So is there an ETA for this feature ?

Thanks. Nicolas

Yea if you want to go on video (and it's not just mouse input), then you need to use custom controls.

Actually, if you want the MixerInteractive.GetButton("BUTTON_ID") API to work with a custom control, it's possible. You just need to make sure your giveInput() call on the JavaScript side matches the format of a button event. There's an example of the button message in this section of the protocol doc: https://dev.mixer.com/guides/mixplay/protocol/specification#input

Cool thanks for the lead, I had hard time finding this info as this is my first try at custom controls. Will dig into this. Thanks.

No worries! We're always glad to help and it's always good to know which parts of our documentation could be more discoverable :) Thank you for posting the issue!

Hi, Here is a recap of what I found hard to understand and stuff that can "fail" silently and have dev guessing .. at least me ;-)

In CDK/HTML Mode: by default the controls in the Schema have the property disabled: false: I had to change to true to have them work.

In CDK/HTML Mode: by default in the JS file which get DOM buttons events to resend them to MixerInteractive, the DOM events used are .onclick, and logically then creates a mixer.socket.call with event:'click', but from what I understood later, click is not used internaly in MixerInteractice, and in fact in Mixer for Unity the code handles mainly: mousedown, mouseup. Once I changed the event type to mousedown events worked with MixerInteractive.GetButton("...") in Unity/C#.

Last small detail: In the roadmap file Custom Controls is market as planned but not done, so It can be though that it is normal that it does not work. but now as I got at least the events working I'm confused, what Custom Controls support means ? https://github.com/mixer/interactive-unity-plugin/blob/master/roadmap.md

Hope it helps. and thanks for the support. Nicolas

Thank you for the feedback. I will share it with the team.

I'll also update the roadmap right now. Custom controls are supported.
