Show Touch On Highlight not working when moving from 1.8.2 to 2.1.3

You must Login before you can answer or comment on any questions.

I'm upgrading an app from 1.8.2 to 2.1.3. All of our buttons had the glow when touched.. We loved this behaviour and still want it but I can't figure out how to bring them back.

I realize that some developers didn't want this behaviour and apparently it was fixed by setting different backgroundImage and backgroundSelected values. But how do you bring back this nice feature?

In Xcode its call "Show Touch On Highlight"

Thanks

  • only guessing its for ios, as you mentioned xcode

    Code sample of how you are declaring your buttons would be helpful.

  • Sorry for not being clear, my mistake :-(

    Here is the code in 1.8.2 that used to show the nice glow when touched 

    var btnFavoriteOn = Titanium.UI.createButton({
    backgroundImage : '/images/Favicon-On.png',
    width : 20,
    height : 20,
    left : 35,
    top: 0
});
 
btnFavoriteOn.addEventListener('click', function() {
    Ti.App.fireEvent('app:RefreshFavorite');
});
    in 2.1.3 the nice glow is gone.

    I found this regarding people who wanted the glow to be removed.

    Here is the link to the bug fix that shows how to remove remove the glow.

    If I don't follow the steps I would assume that the glow would remain (intended result), but I'm not able to :-(
