Method Detail

createDefaultEventDispatcher

public static EventDispatcher createDefaultEventDispatcher(processing.core.PApplet p,
                                                           UnfoldingMap... maps)

Initializes default events, i.e. all given maps handle mouse and keyboard interactions. No cross-listening between maps.

Parameters:

p - The PApplet needed for mouse and key user interactions.

maps - One or many maps.

Returns:

The EventDispatcher to use for additional event handling.

createMouseEventDispatcher

public static EventDispatcher createMouseEventDispatcher(processing.core.PApplet p,
                                                         UnfoldingMap... maps)

Initializes default events, i.e. all given maps handle mouse interactions. No cross-listening between maps.

Parameters:

p - The PApplet needed for mouse user interactions.

maps - One or many maps.

Returns:

The EventDispatcher to use for additional event handling.
