Hello,

Is it possible in Construct to allow a user to load an image file from their local drive? Interestingly the webcam plugin is titled "user media beta" but it relates only to the webcam.

I know this is not a limitation in javascript or HTML5 as it is quite trivial to do in Processing. Maybe it is trivial in C2 and I have just missed it?

Thanks!

Darin

Project files might be what you are looking for.

But direct access with JavaScript is not yet possible and is restricted (imagine a fraudulent HTML5 add having access to your hard drive, copying/pasting/deleting files there without you even being aware of it).

You might also want to check latest additions like Sprite: load from URL, AJAX request allowing arrays/dictionaries to load/save datas as JSON, etc... (you might want to check the changelogs of the latest releases of C2)
