Double tapping not being detected by Mouse on Win32 version of app

Solar2D Win32 Desktop

I seem to be having an issue with win32 version of my app detecting a “double tap” on mouse. This simulates doubletapping fine in the simulator, but when I build a win32 version of it, only single taps and touch events are working. 

In the Mouse documentation: https://docs.coronalabs.com/api/event/mouse/index.html it states that it does read event.numTaps. I have modified event.numTaps to 1 and that registered but changing it back to event.numTaps == 2 did not register double clicking.

Anyone have any ideas behind this?

--Event handler for when a card is double tapped in the results view, adding it into the deck local function onCardAddToDeck(event) local phase = event.phase local target = event.target local dupl = 1 system.setTapDelay(200) if event.numTaps == 2 then print("Double tapped "..target.name.." "..target.serial) --check the decklist for duplicates for i=1, #decklist do if string.find(tostring(decklist[i]), tostring(target.serial), 1, true) then dupl = dupl + 1 end end --add the card to the decklist if its 3 or less AND if the deck is not at 50 cards if dupl \<= 3 then if #decklist \< 50 then --insert card into deck table table.insert(decklist, tostring(target.serial)) deckCount.text = ("Deck: "..#decklist) --[[for i=1, #decklist do print(decklist[i]) end --]] --create deck image of the target local deckCard = display.newImage(target.img, deckCardX, deckCardY) deckCard.img = target.img deckCard.name = target.name deckCard.card\_type = target.card\_type deckCard.element = target.element deckCard.cost = target.cost deckCard.rarity = target.rarity deckCard.power = target.power deckCard.title = target.title deckCard.desc = target.desc deckCard.origin = target.origin deckCard.serial = target.serial if rowCount == 10 then deckCardX = 0 deckCardY = deckCardY + 150 rowCount = 0 else deckCardX = deckCardX + 110 rowCount = rowCount + 1 end --scale the card and increment row and X-pos values deckCard:scale(0.5, 0.5) deckCard.anchorX = 0 deckCard.anchorY = 0 deckScrollView:insert(deckCard) deckCard:addEventListener("touch", onCardTouch) deckCard:addEventListener("tap", onCardRemoveFromDeck) print(target.name.." duplicates: "..dupl) end end end return true end

Hi @terryenglish3,

This line seems a bit strange to me:

[lua]

system.setTapDelay(200)

[/lua]

That is telling the system to honor a double tap after 200 seconds (not milliseconds) as noted in the documentation:

https://docs.coronalabs.com/api/library/system/setTapDelay.html

Best regards,

that function call was added to see if that changed anything with the win32 build. It made no difference in the simulator or win32 with it being there or not. I can only get event.numTaps == 1 to work not event.numTaps == 2

So I realized my Corona SDK build was much older than on the website and updated the SDK. After updating and recompiling the win32 app, it is now working as intended (just commented out the setTapDelay() function calls as it was not needed at all).
