Hi I have a bitmap of a grid and I want to define each square as a button, rather than draw each square on screen and define each as a button I wondered if there was a way to define a region such a 0,0 to 75,75 as a button or to generate the tap event etc

Hi,
you can draw invisible buttons on top of your bitmap instead.
Say, your grid is made of 50x50 squares, then you could build your buttons on top with:
local touchController = display.newRect(0,0,50,50)
--make it invisible
touchController:setFillColor(0,0,0,0)
-- and assign the touch function to it
touchController:addEventListener("touch", yourTouchFunction) You can set the touchController x,y to wherever you need.
Hope this helps.
