mouseClicked

Static mouseClicked 

Source
pub static mouseClicked: MouseClickedInternalType
Expand description

The mouseClicked() function is called once after a mouse button has been pressed and then released.

Browsers handle clicks differently, so this function is only guaranteed to be run when the left mouse button is clicked. To handle other mouse buttons being pressed or released, see mousePressed() or mouseReleased().

Browsers may have different default behaviors attached to various mouse events. To prevent any default behavior for this event, add "return false" to the end of the method.

Examples

// Click within the image to change
// the value of the rectangle
// after the mouse has been clicked

let value = 0;
function draw() {
  fill(value);
  rect(25, 25, 50, 50);
}

function mouseClicked() {
  if (value === 0) {
    value = 255;
  } else {
    value = 0;
  }
}
function mouseClicked() {
  ellipse(mouseX, mouseY, 5, 5);
  // prevent default
  return false;
}
// returns a MouseEvent object
// as a callback argument
function mouseClicked(event) {
  console.log(event);
}

Parameters

event? optional MouseEvent callback argument.
