Question about the accelerometer

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

This code allows the user to shake the device to move a cube downward, but I would like to not need to shake the phone to get that functionality. The cube can be found in the site’s sample code folders and can be tested in the simulator by changing the orientation of the displayed phone and hitting “command” and “up”.
------ The Code

Holder = display.newImage( “cube01.png”, 240, 240 )

local function shakeme(event)
Holder.y = Holder.y - event.yGravity
end

Runtime:addEventListener(“accelerometer”,shakeme)

– Fixed and posted for others

local Holder = display.newImage( “cube01.png”, 240, 240 )
local Movement = 0

local function shakeme(event)
Movement = event.yGravity
end

local function onEnter(event)
Holder.y = Holder.y - Movement
end

Runtime:addEventListener(“enterFrame”,onEnter)
Runtime:addEventListener(“accelerometer”,shakeme)
