What is it you are trying to achieve?
I need to make the user click on the blue circle and evertime they do that it records it, so it gives the results after a certain period of time, however you can just press and hold the button, how do i change this.


What is the problem you are having?
read above

Describe what you have tried to solve this problem
cant solve it
Post any relevant code (You may choose to attach the file instead of posting the code if it is too long)
<Answer Here>

Turing:


setscreen ("graphics:vga")
var count : int:=0
var x, y : int
var button : int := 0
var timepassed : boolean := false
var timepassed1 : int := 0
Draw.FillOval (300, 200, 50, 50, blue)
loop
    Mouse.Where (x, y, button)
    if button = 1
            then
        count := count + 1
    end if
    timepassed1 := timepassed1 + 1
delay(1)
    if timepassed1 > 1000
            then
        timepassed := true
    end if
    exit when timepassed = true
end loop
put "Your score is ", count

Turing:
View.Set ("Graphics,Offscreenonly,Nobuttonbar")
var x : int := 0
var mx, my, mb : int
var reset, clicked : boolean := false
loop
    %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
    Mouse.Where (mx, my, mb)
    %if mouse is not pressed, and reset is true then reset = false
    if mb = 0 and reset = true then
        reset := false
    end if
    %if the mouse is pressed and reset is false then clicked = true and reset = true
    if mb ~= 0 and reset = false then
        clicked := true
        reset := true
    end if
    %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
    %when the mouse is clicked, do this ->
    if clicked = true then
        x += 1
    end if



    put x
    View.Update
    cls
    %sets clicked so that it is only true for one loop after clicked.
    clicked := false
end loop

The detail to copthesaint's post is that you record the mouse state over 2 instances in time. 2 binary choices give you 4 possible mouse states:

-- clicked down
-- held down
-- released
-- held released

<a href="http://compsci.ca/holtsoft/doc/mouse_buttonmoved.html">Mouse.ButtonMoved</a> and <a href="http://compsci.ca/holtsoft/doc/mouse_buttonwait.html">Mouse.ButtonWait</a> are higher-level alternatives that take care of the details for you, if you prefer.

This is the method I normally use:

Turing:

if button = 1 then
    if not clicked then
        % your code in here%
    end if
    clicked := true
else
    clicked := false
end if
