register mouse clicks on word object

[obliviot]

Hi all, I am trying to get mousedown and up to work with  text object

        this.found_word = word;
        
        this.word = new game.Text(this.found_word.toUpperCase(),{
            align: 'center'
        });
        this.word.anchor.set(this.word.width / 2, this.word.height / 2);
        this.word.position.set(game.width / 2, game.height / 2 + 345);
        this.word.scale.set(1.5);
        this.word.addTo(this.stage);
        
        this.word.mousedown = this.mousedown.bind(this);
        this.word.mouseup = this.mouseup.bind(this);
    },
    mousedown: function() {
        console.log('mouse down');
        this.word.scale.set(.5);
    },

 

is this at all possible this way?

hi, just some tip: put long code into code field to make it easier to read

try to make the object interactive:

this.world.interactive = true;
