Touch Zones is a simple GUI library with the following features:
- Define interactive zones
- Check touch/mouse events like "down", "drag", "up" and "out"
- Automatic highlighting with different palettes (optional)
- Correct focus handling, no accidental button clicks
- Users can cancel button clicks by dragging outside a button zone
This is an example program including the library. It was created for the official LowRes NX tools.

Any chances you will update this so it’s compatible with the new version of NX?
Timo 2020-05-10 11:24
Yes, I'll do. Just forgot about it.

I added support for timed events by adding GLOBAL ZONE_DTIME and inserting a single line of code just before END SUB within ZONE_UPDATE:
IF CUR_ZONE=-1 THEN ZONE_DTIME=-1 ELSE INC ZONE_DTIME
The variable ZONE_EVENT can be used as a 'setting' (in addition to a 'status getter' as indicated in the source). If you want to defocus the current zone (for example, with timed or drag events), set ZONE_EVENT=E_UP or ZONE_EVENT=E_OUT.
Here's some time graphs to make the learning curve easier for others:
'TIME GRAPHS.
'
' [.]FALSE=0 [T]TRUE=-1 [-]NONE=-1 [D]DOWN=1 [U]UP=2 [X]OUT=3 [R]DRAG=4.
