no "began" event for slider widget?

I don’t seem to get the documented “began” event for the newSlider widget?  

Get the “moved” and “ended” ok.  

On 2013.1157 (2013.7.4).  

Am I missing something (else I’ll lodge a bug)

I would suggest filling a bug report.  Produce a simple example, and zip it up and use the Report a Bug link at the top of the page.

Thanks

This one is easy to duplicate. Simply open WidgetDemo, go to tab4.lua, find sliderListener( event ) and insert the following as the last line before end : 

print(event.phase)

No began event. Moved and then Ended. Yet another widget bug that needs to be fixed.

Hi Kerem,

I’ll submit this to be fixed tomorrow (submitted that is, and fixed hopefully soon after).

Thanks. Its not my bug per se. Credits to greg886 for finding it.

thanks ksan (I’m pretty much a hobbyist & don’t get too much time - would have had to get code together before I could have lodged)

@Brent - actually any chance you could have a look at this question I’ve posted & really need some help with, in return for almost lodging a bug  :)    http://forums.coronalabs.com/topic/37209-help-re-reducing-texture-memory-usage-in-horizontal-scrolling-game-image-sizes-off-screen-culling-etc/

You’re most welcome. I think most if not all widget bugs should be possible to duplicate in the WidgetDemo.

Confirm this one has been fixed. Moving to “Fixed” in the spreadsheet.
