Right click and middle click wrong coordinates

Phaser 3
1

I have noticed that using in a scene

this.input.on("pointerup", (event: Phaser.Input.Pointer) => {
        console.log(event.button);
        console.log(event.downX);
        console.log(event.downY);
        console.log(event.upX);
        console.log(event.upY);
    }, this);

Returns correct values when the event is triggered by mouse left click, but incorrect values when it’s middle or right click.

For example, right click on a just loaded scene will return 2 for the button and 0 for all the other values, no matter where you click on the scene.

2

Per the docs, those values refer to left click only.

Ohh ok. I missed that.

The docs however is inaccurate in some aspects, for example it says for downX

X coordinate of the Pointer when Button 1 (left button), or Touch, was pressed, used for dragging objects.

when in reality Button 1 is middle button, and Button 0 is really left button.

Also. Is there a reason for this? Why not return the coordinates for all pointer actions?

Likely because dragging objects is by primary button only.

You can still get the pointer coordinates for any click: they’re in pointer.x and pointer.y.
