这次分享一个简单的小功能，用cocos2d-x实现tips效果，作为之前一篇博文的后续。tips的行为很简单：点击某个node（我们不妨称它为target_node）触发，当点击区域在target_node范围时出现tips，否则隐藏tips（有些情况需要指定有效点击范围不在某些node中，我们把这些node称为exclude_nodes）；当target_node位于屏幕左半边时，tips出现在target_node右侧；否则tips就出现在target_node左侧，tips和target_node有一个固定的水平间距（我们不妨定义为DEFAULT_TIPS_DIST）；tips和target_node底部对齐，但tips不能超过屏幕范围。

不废话，先上代码：

function setupTips(params)
    local targetNode = params.target_node
    local tips = params.tips
    local excludeNodes = params.exclude_nodes or {}

    local DEFAULT_TIPS_DIST = 10
    local TIPS_ZORDER = 1000

    if tolua.isnull(targetNode) or tolua.isnull(tips) then
        return
    end

    tips:setVisible(false)
    targetNode:setTouchEnabled(false)
    display.getRunningScene():addChild(tips, TIPS_ZORDER)

    targetNode:addNodeEventListener(cc.NODE_EVENT, function(event)
        if event.name == "exit" then
            local scene = display.getRunningScene()
            scene:performWithDelay(MyPackage.callbackWrapper({scene}, function()
                if not tolua.isnull(tips) then
                    tips:setVisible(false)
                end
            end), 0)

            local eventDispatcher = display.getRunningScene():getEventDispatcher()
            eventDispatcher:removeEventListenersForTarget(targetNode)
        end
    end)
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    local function setTipsPosition()
        local leftBottomPos = MyPackage.getPositionOfNode(targetNode, display.LEFT_BOTTOM)
        local targetNodePos = display.getRunningScene():convertToNodeSpace(targetNode:getParent():convertToWorldSpace(leftBottomPos))
        local targetNodeAnchorPoint = targetNode:getAnchorPoint()
        local tipsPos = targetNodePos
        local tipsAnchorPoint = cc.p(0, 0)
        local director = cc.Director:getInstance()
        local glView = director:getOpenGLView()
        local frameSize = glView:getFrameSize()
        local viewSize = director:getVisibleSize()

        if targetNodePos.x <= frameSize.width * 0.5 / glView:getScaleX() then
            -- show tips on the right of the targetNode if the targetNode is on the left screen
            tipsPos.x = tipsPos.x + targetNode:getContentSize().width + DEFAULT_TIPS_DIST
        else
            -- show tips on the left of the targetNode otherwises
            tipsPos.x = tipsPos.x - DEFAULT_TIPS_DIST
            tipsAnchorPoint.x = 1
        end

        if targetNodePos.y + tips:getContentSize().height > viewSize.height then
            tipsPos.y = viewSize.height
            tipsAnchorPoint.y = 1
        end
        if targetNodePos.y < 0 then
            targetNodePos.y = 0
        end

        tips:ignoreAnchorPointForPosition(false)
        tips:setAnchorPoint(tipsAnchorPoint)
        tips:setPosition(tipsPos)
    end

    end

    local listener = cc.EventListenerTouchOneByOne:create()
    listener:registerScriptHandler(onTouchBegan, cc.Handler.EVENT_TOUCH_BEGAN)
    listener:registerScriptHandler(onTouchMoved, cc.Handler.EVENT_TOUCH_MOVED)

    local eventDispatcher = display.getRunningScene():getEventDispatcher()
    eventDispatcher:removeEventListenersForTarget(targetNode)
    eventDispatcher:addEventListenerWithSceneGraphPRiority(listener, targetNode)
end

关于MyPackage.getPositionOfNode、MyPackage.callbackWrapper等helper functions请参见之前某篇博文。

上面的代码基本是很简单的，除了有几点需要额外说明一下：

1.几处调用到performWithDelay的地方。这是因为我们用target_node的WorldSpace坐标来确定tips的位置，当target_node位于某个可滚动的node（如ScrollView）中时，需要延迟到下一帧才能拿到它正确的WorldSpace坐标，所以我们用了quickx定义的Node:performWithDelay来做延时。之所以用这个函数而不用scheduler，是因为它在Node的生命周期中，我们不需要担心如何去安全销毁scheduler所产生的handler。事实上我们只要看一下quickx定义在NodeEx.lua中的Node:performWithDelay就一目了然了：

function Node:performWithDelay(callback, delay)
    local action = transition.sequence({
        cc.DelayTime:create(delay),
        cc.CallFunc:create(callback),
    })
    self:runAction(action)
    return action
end

2.我们指定target_node在收到exit事件时隐藏tips，这是因为target_node可能在某些ClippingNode（如ScrollView）中，当它超出区域不再显示时，tips也不应该被显示。

3.当同一个位置有多个具有tips行为的target_node时，需要判断当前的target_node是否有显示，这需要回溯看父节点的visibility，getCascadeVisibility定义如下：

function getCascadeVisibility(node)
    if tolua.isnull(node) then
        return true
    end
    local visibility = node:isVisible()
    if visibility then
        local parent = node:getParent()
        visibility = visibility and getCascadeVisibility(parent)
    end
    return visibility
end
