Using Gesture API

[jcospina]

hi,

i am using the gesture api to detect an interaction in a rectangle, there are 9 interactive zones, and i want to detect when the user tap the correct zone (the correct zone changes every 500ms) and increase a counter. But the counter isnt responding to the taps, because the counter not always increments its value, but when i change the period to 650ms the counter works fine, i really needed to be 500ms:

This code creates the interactive zones (9 in total) with posX, posY, Width y Height of some rects previously defined

public void createInteractiveZones() {
        Rectangle current;
        //Fija el listener para registrar eventos para GestureCanvas
        GestureRegistrationManager.setListener(this, myListener);
        //accede al tile resaltado
        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
            for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++) {
                current = tiles[i][j];
                myGestureZone[i][j] = new GestureInteractiveZone(GestureInteractiveZone.GESTURE_TAP);
                myGestureZone[i][j].setRectangle(current.getPosX(), current.getPosY(),
                current.getRectWidth(), current.getRectHeight());
                GestureRegistrationManager.register(this, myGestureZone[i][j]);
            }
        }
    }

This code detects if the tapped rectangle is the correct

public void gestureAction(Object container, GestureInteractiveZone gestureInteractiveZone, GestureEvent gestureEvent) {
        //Codigo para Gestionar los gesture events
        eventGen = (MainScreen) container; // Canvas Container
        iposX = gestureInteractiveZone.getX(); //
        iposY = gestureInteractiveZone.getY();
        //currentRect = eventGen.tiles[posX][posY];
        if (iposX == posX && iposY == posY) {
            eventGen.updateScore();       //Update the counter     
        }
    }

I use a timer to change the zone

public void changeZone() {
        tilesTimer = new Timer();
        TimerTask tilesTask = new TimerTask() {
            public void run() {                
                updateZone(); // repaint the screen, drawing a the new correct zone
            }
        };
        tilesTimer.scheduleAtFixedRate(tilesTask, 0, period); // works fine with period 650, but with period 500, //doesnt always works
    }

Is anyone can help me, ill be very grateful

Thank you
