I am having a problem with touch events where my code doesn't always receive the begin and end touch events. This is making it difficult to implement a swipe effect as I can't cleanly process the beginning and the end of the swipe.
I am listening for touch on a masked image that is sitting below another, transparent image. I wondered if this might be causing a problem but removing the mask and the overlay still shows the same behaviour....
Is this a common problem with touches and if so is there a workaround?
Posting some code would be helpful.
A run time listener for touch might be helpful. Once a touch is detected you can set focus to the object in question and perform need functions.
Swiping, may make first touch outside the object in question and the touch events are not directed where you want.

I have set a touch event listener on the scene parent group and that is performing much more consistently. I am using the code out of the drag/drop sample code folder to handle touches.
I am able to get the simulator to crash pretty regularly when trying to handle touches directly on the object with all the layers enabled so I am wondering if the structure is just too complicated. (a group with a shape and text that is masked in another group with another image on top)

I do not know if LUA is as Maths (lol) but if so I could say: "The factor`s order does not affect the result." but if it does not stand out like Maths, try changing your code where:

leafcutter: I see exactly the same behavior with touches for a masked image. Occasionally I don't get the "began" phase. Not good.
Rodrigo: I think you meant phase == "began" not "phase" == "began". In any case leafcutter is using an old programmers trick held over from C to prevent mistakenly typing
@James, Yes I meant that.
