Drag and Drop from a Vector of Shapes
« on: August 23, 2020, 05:35:11 pm »
Hi. Looking to be able to drag and drop shapes from a vector, but I'm finding that when dragging one of the shapes I instead drag all of the shapes from the vector to the mouse position instead of just the single shape. Was wondering how I can drag the one shape without affecting the others?

#include <iostream>
#include "SFML/Graphics.hpp"
#include "Shape.h"
#include <vector>

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(1280, 800), "SFML Game");

    sf::Event event;

    bool mouseClicked = false;
    bool mouseInsideRect = false;
    bool dragging = false;

    sf::Vector2f mouseRectOffset;

    int mouseX = 0;
    int mouseY = 0;

    std::vector<Shape> shapeVec;

    while (window.isOpen())
    {
        while (window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::KeyPressed && event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::Space)
            {
                Shape shape(window.getSize());
                shapeVec.push_back(shape);
            }

            if (event.type == sf::Event::MouseButtonPressed && event.mouseButton.button == sf::Mouse::Left)
            {
                mouseClicked = true;

                for (int i = 0; i < shapeVec.size(); i++)
                {
                    dragging = true;
                    mouseRectOffset.x = event.mouseButton.x - shapeVec[i].GetShape().getGlobalBounds().left - shapeVec[i].GetShape().getOrigin().x;
                    mouseRectOffset.y = event.mouseButton.x - shapeVec[i].GetShape().getGlobalBounds().top - shapeVec[i].GetShape().getOrigin().y;
                }
            }

            if (event.type == sf::Event::MouseButtonReleased && event.mouseButton.button == sf::Mouse::Left)
            {
                mouseClicked = false;
                dragging = false;
            }

            if (event.type == sf::Event::MouseMoved)
            {
                mouseX = event.mouseMove.x;
                mouseY = event.mouseMove.y;
            }
        }

        if (dragging == true)
        {
            for (int i = 0; i < shapeVec.size(); i++)
            {
                shapeVec[i].SetPos(mouseX - mouseRectOffset.x, mouseY - mouseRectOffset.y);
            }
        }

        window.clear();

        for (int i = 0; i < shapeVec.size(); i++)
        {
            shapeVec[i].Draw(window);
        }

        window.display();
    }

    return 0;
}

Instead of looping through all the shapes in the vector and moving them all, just move the one you wish to move.

How do I make sure that I'm selecting the element which the mouse has clicked on?

You can make new variable selectedShape which will be index in shapeVec, -1 if nothing is selected, >0 if something is selected. Or it can be pointer. The index should be assigned in shape vs cursor collision loop, which you don't have.

Hopefully, this helps, this was done quickly, but I think you can figure it out from here I believe.

#include <iostream>
#include "SFML/Graphics.hpp"

#include <vector>

struct Shape
{
    Shape(sf::Vector2f size) {
        shape.setSize(size);
        shape.setFillColor(sf::Color::Transparent);
        shape.setOutlineThickness(1.f);
        shape.setOutlineColor(sf::Color::Green);
    }
    sf::RectangleShape shape;
    bool selected = false;
};

int main() {
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(1280, 800), "SFML Game");
    srand((unsigned)time(nullptr));

    sf::Event event;

    bool mouseClicked = false;
    bool mouseInsideRect = false;
    bool dragging = false;

    sf::Vector2f mouseRectOffset;

    int mouseX = 0;
    int mouseY = 0;

    std::vector<Shape> shapeVec;
    Shape* currentShape = nullptr;          // keep track of current shape being moved

    for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
        auto shape = new Shape({ 64.f,64.f });
        shape->shape.setPosition(rand() % 1100 + 100, rand() % 650 + 100);
        shapeVec.push_back(*shape);

    }
    while (window.isOpen()) {
        while (window.pollEvent(event)) {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed || event.type == sf::Event::KeyPressed && event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::Escape)
                window.close();
            if (event.type == sf::Event::KeyPressed && event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::Space) {
                auto shape = new Shape({ 64.f,64.f });
                shape->shape.setPosition(rand() % 1100 + 100, rand() % 650 + 100);
                shapeVec.push_back(*shape);
            }

       
        }

        // get the mouse position
        auto mpos = window.mapPixelToCoords(sf::Mouse::getPosition(window));

        // Moving the shapes
        if (sf::Mouse::isButtonPressed(sf::Mouse::Left)) {
            if (mpos.x >= 0 && mpos.x < window.getSize().x && mpos.y >= 0 * mpos.y < window.getSize().y && !dragging) {
                dragging = true;
                for (auto& it : shapeVec) {
                    if (it.shape.getGlobalBounds().contains(mpos.x, mpos.y)) {
                        it.selected = true;
                        currentShape = &it;
                        break;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        else {
           
            dragging = false;
            if (currentShape)
                currentShape->selected = false;
        }

        // removing the shapes
        if (sf::Mouse::isButtonPressed(sf::Mouse::Right)) {
            if (mpos.x >= 0 && mpos.x < window.getSize().x && mpos.y >= 0 * mpos.y < window.getSize().y) {
                auto shapeIt = shapeVec.begin();
                while (shapeIt != shapeVec.end()) {
                    auto it = *shapeIt;
                    if (it.shape.getGlobalBounds().contains(mpos.x, mpos.y)) {
                        shapeIt = shapeVec.erase(shapeIt);
                    }
                    else {
                        ++shapeIt;
                    }
                }
            }
        }

        if (dragging == true) {
            for (int i = 0; i < shapeVec.size(); i++) {
                if(shapeVec[i].selected)
                     shapeVec[i].shape.setPosition(mpos.x,mpos.y);

            }
        }

        window.clear();

        for (int i = 0; i < shapeVec.size(); i++) {
            window.draw(shapeVec[i].shape);
        }

        window.display();
    }

    return 0;
}
