Getting the target sprite when using on('click')

Help & Support

Hey everyone!

I’m having an issue figuring out how to get the target of sprite when a user clicks on it.

For example, I’m doing something like this:

this.app.root.findByName('MyObject).script.sprite.on(‘click’, this.clickedObject, this);

Then the function I have would be:

MyExample.prototype.clickedObject = function(evt) {
…
}

I am passing “this” into the click call but I’m not sure how to receive it in the function. I know in other languages like AS3, I would do “evt.target” to get the object. Is there something similar here?

Thanks!

Hi Max,

The correct answer is often the simplest one, haha. Thanks, I’ll try that! Not sure why that didn’t occur to me. :-p Fridays…
