Pygame action when mouse 'click' on .rect?

Question

I have been writing a test function to learn how a mouse \'click\' action on a pygame.rect will result in a reponse.

So far:

def test():
    pygame.i         


        

Answer 1

Well, if anyone is interested or is having a similar issue, this is what I needed to change.

First off the, remove:

button = button.get_rect()

Then:

screen.blit(button, (300, 200))

Should be:

b = screen.blit(button, (300, 200))

This to create a Rect of the area of where the button is located on the screen.

On to:

if event.type == pygame.mouse.get_pressed()

I changed to:

if event.type == pygame.MOUSEBUTTONDOWN and event.button == 1:

The pygame.mouse.get_pressed() gets the state of all three mouse buttons (MOUSEBUTTONDOWN, MOUSEBUTTONUP, or MOUSEMOTION). I also needed to add in event.button == 1 to specify that this was the 'left-mouse' button being pressed.

Finally:

`if button.collidepoint(pos):` 

to:

`if b.collidepoint(pos):`

Using Rect b's collidepoint method
