I would like to return the unique name of the object that the user has clicked on but I can't find the solution. Below is what I'm trying to achieve but in CoffeeScript.
$(".class").click(function(){
alert("You clicked on this specific element");
});
The best example I could find is shown below, but each layer is unique so they can't be assigned to different layers.
layerA.on Events.Click, (event, layer) ->
print "This layer was clicked", layer.name
I can listen to the event on each layer individually, but that would breach the DRY principle.
I've managed to figure it out myself. Here's the solution below.
Create an array and store all of the layer names inside
layerArray = [layer, layer2, layer3, layer4]
Create a function that will be called when the click event is triggered, passing in the layer object and the layer index
callFunc = (layer, index) ->
print index
Loop over each layer in the array and pass the clicked layer to the function
for layer, index in layerArray
layer.on(Events.Click, callFunc)
