The _BUTTON function returns -1 when specified button number on a controller device is pressed.


Syntax

press%% = _BUTTON(button_number%)


Description

  • Values returned are -1 for a press and 0 when a button is released or not pressed.
  • The button_number% must be a number which does not exceed the number of buttons found by the _LASTBUTTON function.
  • The number of _DEVICES must be read before using _DEVICE$, _DEVICEINPUT or _LASTBUTTON.
  • Note: The number 2 button is the center button in this device configuration. Center is also designated as _MOUSEBUTTON(3).


Examples

Example: Reading multiple controller device buttons, axis and wheels. 

FOR i = 1 TO _DEVICES
    PRINT STR$(i) + ") " + _DEVICE$(i) + " Buttons:"; _LASTBUTTON(i); ",Axis:"; _LASTAXIS(i); ",Wheel:"; _LASTWHEEL(i)
NEXT

DO
    d& = _DEVICEINPUT
    IF d& THEN '             the device number cannot be zero!
        PRINT "Found"; d&;
        FOR b = 1 TO _LASTBUTTON(d&)
            PRINT _BUTTONCHANGE(b); _BUTTON(b);
        NEXT
        FOR a = 1 TO _LASTAXIS(d&)
            PRINT _AXIS(a);
        NEXT
        FOR w = 1 TO _LASTWHEEL(d&)
            PRINT _WHEEL(w);
        NEXT
        PRINT
    END IF
LOOP UNTIL INKEY$ = CHR$(27) 'escape key exit

END
Note: When there is no device control to read, a FOR n = 1 TO 0 loop will not run thus avoiding a control function read error.
