Touch

On the display unit, if you touch the object and slide your finger outside the object area without releasing your finger, the click is canceled.
The Touch trigger (Click) is NOT activated in the following cases.

Object does not display anymore due to a screen or content change.
The interlock function is enabled on the object.
The user logs out.
Project file is transferred.
Run time is shutdown.
Run time is restarted.
The Windows active window changes from the run-time application to a different application.

[Press]

The operation is triggered when you press the object.

Block

Text

onPress($GraphicObject.Rectangle1, ()=>{
});

1: EnableDelay

After the object is pressed for the defined amount of time, the operation is run.

Block

Select the check box to set a delay time.

Text

To set a delay time (for example, 10*100 ms) in Text mode, use

onPressWithDelay($GraphicObject.Rectangle1, 10, ()=>{

});

[Release]

The operation is triggered when you release the object.

Block

Text

onRelease($GraphicObject.Rectangle1, () => {
});

1: EnableDelay

After the object is released and the specified time elapses, the operation is run.

Block

Select the check box to set a delay time.

Text

To set a delay time (for example, 10*100 ms) in Text mode, use

onReleaseWithDelay($GraphicObject.Rectangle1, 10, () => {
});

WARNING

TRIGGER BEHAVIOR

When designing [Release] trigger, take into account that the [Release] trigger is also activated when the target object is no longer touchable.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Note: The [Release] trigger is also activated in the following cases.

The target object is no longer touchable due to screen/content display change
The target object's interlock is enabled
User is logged out
Project file transfer
Runtime shutdown by Runtime Application Operation (Shutdown)
Runtime reboot by Runtime Application Operation (Reboot)
Application window is no longer in focus

Timing Chart

Example 1	: Operation is triggered
Example 2	: Operation is triggered : Delay Time
Example 3	: Operation is triggered : Delay Time

Note: If both [Press] and [Release] triggers are specified on the same object, and if the object is released before the [Press] delay time elapses, the [Release] trigger is executed but not the [Press] trigger.

: Operation is triggered by [Release] trigger

: Operation is NOT triggered by [Press] trigger

: [Press] Delay Time

[Hold]

While you continue touching the object, the operation is repeatedly triggered for the specified duration. The maximum value that you can set for the [Duration] is 30 seconds.

Block

Text

onHold($GraphicObject.Rectangle1, 1000, ()=>{
})

1: EnableDelay

After the object is pressed for the specified amount of time, the operation is run.

Block

Select the check box to set a delay time.

Text

To set a delay time (for example, 10*100 ms) in Text mode, use

onHoldWithDelay($GraphicObject.Rectangle1, 1000, 10, () => {
});

Timing Chart

Example 1	: Operation is triggered : Hold Time
Example 2	: Operation is triggered : Delay Time : Hold Time

[DoubleClick]

The operation is triggered when you double-click the object.

Block

Text

onDoubleClick($GraphicObject.Rectangle1, ()=>{

});
