Hi, No, it's because the android team decided to implement MultiTouch in a way that it only can be used on one "View". For example, ImageButtons are views. Each ImageButton is a seperate "View" object. The Android multitouch does not just map touches to multiple views like that (which I think it should, but the android team does not). Instead you end up having to create a View yourself, and drawing the three buttons yourself, since multitouch comes to a View as additional touch coordinates. In other words, you can only use multitouch "per view". It can't spread across multiple views. You basically need to create one big view object that takes up most of the screen and then draw the buttons yourself, and then handle the multitouch messages passed to that view.
Unless there is an easier way that I know of, but I dont think there is. IMO how they "implemented" multitouch is too hackish, and should have been transparent to developers by the system automatically posting messages to each view that was being touched, instead, you have to rewrite the apps completely to handle it. -niko On May 2, 11:28 am, Codeman <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm using imagebuttons that play sounds using SoundPool.
