Custom Event Triggers

Description

This example demonstrates how to set up custom event triggers to handle drag operations.

To add a custom trigger, you need to create a function that accepts a parameter of type FTriggerEvent and returns a boolean. Below is an example of a trigger for zooming that requires holding the Ctrl key:

Next, you need to set this function to the appropriate attribute, as shown in the example below:

In this example, three custom triggers are defined:

1. fWheelTrigger: Zooming is activated by the mouse wheel, but only when the Ctrl key is held.

2. fNodeMoveTrigger: Dragging is activated by the mouse, but only when the Shift key is held.

3. fCreateConnectionTrigger: Creating a connection between nodes is only possible when the F key is held.

But you can define custom triggers for any event that the flow supports:

fZoom: fWheelTrigger, fDblClickTrigger;

fDraggable: fReassignConnectionTrigger, fCreateConnectionTrigger, fNodeResizeTrigger, fNodeMoveTrigger, fCanvasMoveTrigger, fExternalItemTrigger, fMultiSelectTrigger;

f-selection-area: fTrigger;
