I have a Canvas control (CnvGrid). I then capture the PointerPressed event of the Canvas control. When I click on the canvas the PointerPressed event is raised. However I get the error:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in CSharpXamlForHtml5.dll
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Below is the code:

Code: Select all

private void CnvGrid_PointerPressed(object sender, Windows.UI.Xaml.Input.PointerRoutedEventArgs e)
{
   var pos = e.GetCurrentPoint(CnvGrid); 
}

If I replace CnvGrid with this so line becomes e.GetCurentPoint(this) same problem.

Is this a bug?

Hi Gavin,

Thanks for reporting this issue.

Yes, it is a bug. We have been able to successfully reproduce it.

It will be fixed in the very next build, which is expected in the next couple of weeks.

In the meantime, please use the following code to work around the issue:

Code: Select all

            // Get the absolute pointer coordinates:
            PointerPoint absolutePosition = e.GetCurrentPoint(null);

            // Get the opposite of the absolute position of the Canvas:
            GeneralTransform generalTransform = Window.Current.Content.TransformToVisual(CnvGrid);

            // Get the pointer coordinates relative to Canvas: 
            Point relativePosition = generalTransform.TransformPoint(absolutePosition.Position);

Regards,
