getPixel() again & again

CoronaLabs, thank you very much for adding this feature! http://coronalabs.com/blog/2014/01/30/introducing-the-color-sample-function/

Hello everybody. I’m considering the development of a set of new apps that must go on ios, android and w-phone (when??).

What absolutely I need is a way to exchange information (ID) between two devices, like “bump” used to do. But I need to do it with some kind of barcode scanner or qrcode scanner. I can also use a simplified algorithm for this, because I will have a max of 100 devices contermprary exchanging data. Of course in this case I would need all pairs to be online…

Hi @a.laciura.  Is there a reason you replied to a thread on getPixel() with this request?  It seems to be un-related.  I would suggest starting a new thread with your information request as to not hijack this thread.  There are two reasons why this is important.  First people who might know your answers are not going to look in a thread about getPixel() to help you.  Secondly, if someone searchs for  your question looking for the same answers, they will be greatly confused about why a thread about getPixel() showed up.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Did I just read this right?

display.colorSample()

Overview: Get the color of a pixel on screen.

Build 2401 documentation…

Hi @mpappas,

Yes, this is correct. I’m not sure I understand your question though…

It’s actually been there for a while.  Perhaps before the last public build…  I don’t remember the exact build number.

Rob

Sorry, no question asked. 

I was just looking to see if this feature was implemented yet (considering an app), and saw it.  The revision in the doc is listed as 2014.2401 so I presumed it was just added in the last daily.   Anyways, glad to see getPixel() is there, kudos!
