I want to sense that a touch has moved away from the rectangle initially touched. That is, the touch began within a certain rectangle (an action bar) to which I’ve added an EventListener (at which time I highlighted it), but the latest move phase is outside that rectangle and that action is no longer pending (and I can remove the highlight). This works perfectly unless the rectangle overlaps an underlying scrollview. As long as the touch remains within the rectangle I still get the move events, and my runtime EventListener picks up moves outside it – unless I move from the rectangle directly onto the scrollview. Then I no longer receive touch messages, even if I add an EventListener to the scrollview. I’m speculating that it has its own private listener for the purpose of scrolling, and that it returns true from these touch events. Thus I never see them.
Is something like that happening? How can I detect the fact that a touch has moved onto a scrollview? Should I settle for just detecting taps and not try to sense touches and moves? Thanks.
