Check if an object is grabbed
Hello guys. I can't find a way to check if an object is grabbed or not, a boolean that is true if it is grabbed and false if it is not. The attached image is the components that the object that I w...
There might be an easier solution but when I did this, I also wanted a few other features so I created my own ITransformer and put it in the Grabbable Script. Once you do this, you can just copy-paste the code in the default ITransformer you want. In an ITransformer, there is a method called BeginTransform() that is called when an object is first grabbed and EndTransform() when it is unselected. I'd recommend saving a bool somewhere else that is changed by these methods.
EDIT: If you want to get the gameobject inside the iTransformer script use this (assuming the script is on the gameobject):
_grabbable.Transform.gameObject
The solution I used to check if a particular object is grabbed.
Is to use SelectingPointsCount in the Grabbable script, that is attached to the target object.
It goes:
public Grabbable _grabbable;
private void Update()
{
if (_grabbable.SelectingPointsCount > 0) // is grabbing
{ //Your code }
}
