sf::Event -> mouse wheel?!

[5gum]

Hey guys, it's me again

In the SFML, there is stuff I unterstand really good.
In the SFML, there is stuff I understand a little bit.
But in the SFML, there is also stuff I really don't unterstand. And this stuff is called sf::Event...

I've got a map and sf::view. If I scroll up the mouse wheel the map should zoom in and vice versa (Sry, my English could be bad ). I tried it with:

while(window.pollEvent(event))
{
  if(event.mouseWheel.delta == 1)
  {
    view.zoom(0.9f);
  }
}

Yeah, it works!
But what unfortunately also works is if I click right mouse button and if I release right mouse button the view also zooms in.

I tried it with:

 if(event.mouseWheel.delta == 1 && !sf::Mouse::isButtonPressed(sf::Mouse::Button::Right))
  {
    view.zoom(0.9f);
  }

Now it "just" zoom in if I release the right mouse button.
But I don't want that the view zooms after right relase, only after wheel...
What I have to do?

Thanks a lot,

5gum

PS: I try your ideas only tomorrow afternoon cause I'm tired of programming today

Please read the tutorial carefully. You're doing basic things wrong, such as not checking for the event type before accessing its members, or mixing real-time input with event handling.

My English is really bad so I don't understand the details of the documentation. Could you give me a hint what I do wrong?

You're doing basic things wrong, such as not checking for the event type before accessing its members, or mixing real-time input with event handling.

What I meant is that you need to check the variable event.type before you use a specific event like the mouse wheel in event.mouseWheel.delta. You have to make sure you actually deal with a mouse wheel event.

I can't describe it better than in the tutorial. If you don't understand it, you should use a translator tool or improve your English (as a game developer, you won't get around it anyway)...

Thanks, I'll try this tomorrow

OK it works, thanks

I also have read the tutorial about events and think I understand it now.
