Mouse Input Confused when Touch implemented in code

Problem Description

Mouse input is confused when Touch input is implemented in code.

For example: Left click on object is ignored when Touch events are implemented in the Event Sheet as well. Actually it is swapped around. So if an event says "left click on object = do this" the event will be ignored by left click but will fire when right clicked.

Note: this only happens if the event sheet has code for Touch input as well.

This is happening from R168 onward.

1 Run the preview 2 Left click on the cog - Observe how the popup window displays or disappears - as expected 3 Now stop the preview 4 In the Event sheet - Please enable the Touch group 5 Run the preview again 6 Left click the cog - it does nothing 7 Right click the cog - Observe how the popup window displays or disappears

Observed Result

Closing as not a bug. When you enable mouse input for the Touch object, both triggers fire for clicking the object and touching the object, which shows then immediately hides the popup again. Either have no mouse events and just rely on the Touch object's 'use mouse input', or have separate events and turn off the Touch object's 'use mouse input'.

Thanks for the reply ASHLEY.

Now that you mention 'Touch object's use mouse input' I know I need more coffee. Can't believe I didn't remember that....

Sorry for taking your time, and thanks for awesome software......
