Any comment is welcome you seem to have only implemented the evas-side of using this method and a very simple/primitive "get pixel" in evas_object_image_is_inside (). This doesn't handle border scaling and any form of fills other than "Scaling" fills. i think you really need to implement this - you need to take the x,y in canvas-co-ordinates, then convert this to a, x,y in the pixel array for the image (remember there is a fill origin and size so the image may get scaled differently to the size of the object, also its original can be offset. also there is border scaling that removes scaling for specified edges of the image that you need to account for in converting the canvas co-ord x,y into a pixel x,y reference). and as gustavo mentioned - this only covers argb32 images - doesn't handle yuv (though yuv will ALWAYS be "in" as there is no alpha channel so you can detect this and skip the check and return 1), and the 16bpp engine images too... alpha is a separate plane at the end. > > > In the current code, i could do repeat_events=1 to make both objects > > > receive the event, and do nothing on the circle object if the clicked > > > area is a transparent area.
