  • Hi guys,

    First of all, happy new year to you ! :)

    I am making a crossword puzzle in my game using the "Box Input" object. I noticed that it's quite annoying to use the mouse to click on another box input when you want to add your letter.

    So, I'm wondering :

    1) Is there a way to use the keyboard to jump from one box to another ?

    2) Is there a way to do that automatically so that each time my box is filled with a letter, the clicker goes on the next empty box ?

    Hope my question makes sens ^^

    Thanks guys,

  • Here my crossword example and it has been around:

    For crossword lover, here a template for you to play with;

    crossword_demo

    Source >> crossword_alextro

    Double click/tap to switch between cross & down mode on intersection column

    Use keyboard for better experience

    Hey, thanks ! However, I can't download the file, as soon as I click on "download" it says "url does not exist"... :(

  • The link Seems expired. Here give another go: dropbox.com/s/2ymk52xp0inxk7k/crossword_alextro.capx

  • Thanks !!! Gonna try and make it work !

    Will come back here If I need help to understand your code ^^'

  • Okay, your code is way too complex for me :'( I'm having a hard time seeing the code to just move to the next case to fill...

    Can you please simplify here what I should look for and take into account ?

  • I am on mobile right now and it's hard to see everything from this device. I'll be back again once I get computer in my office desk.

  • Now I remember that text box is only exist 1 (through destroy & spawn succession). It just about picking another next block based on position one after another, vertical or horizontal within same "my number" tag instance variable after typing a character indicated by moving Cursor. Try to modify something, some part to better understand the project.

  • Yeah, I've been trying but there's a lot of variables and formulas that I don't get :(

    Thanks for the file and your help anyway
