How do i remove the hover scale on CCMenuItemLabel?

Question

I have a CCMenuItemLabel on my scene, and when I press and hold my finger on the label it grows in size. Now I dont want that and I dont know how to do this.

I've searched for cocos2d ccmenuitemlabel hover but didnt find what I was searching for.

Answer 1

Extend CCMenuItemLabel and override two methods

-(void) selected {
    if(isEnabled_) {
        isSelected_=YES;
        // do your own anim here (or not !)
    }
}

-(void) unselected {
    if(isEnabled_) {
        isSelected_=YES;
        // undo whatever you did 
    }
}

Answer 2

You can disable touches for the menu this item is contained in by setting isTouchEnabled to NO. If your menu contains other items than just create the labels in a different menu.

It is cumbersome but it will work.
