Hello! I'm making a nonogram/picross game using 2D arrays. For example i have this array:

1 0 1 1 0

0 1 0 1 0

1 1 1 1 1

0 0 1 0 0

0 1 1 1 0

I have managed to figure out everything to make it a working game except one thing. What approach to take so that i can generate the number system on the sides.

Ex.: For this row from the array "1 0 1 1 0" I should generate "1 2" or for "0 1 0 1 0" -> "1 1"

Any ideas are welcome!

If you already have strings like "10110" for each line/column, you can do it an easy way. For 5x5 grid:
Set text to replace(text, "11111", "5") Set text to replace(text, "1111", "4") Set text to replace(text, "111", "3") Set text to replace(text, "11", "2") Set text to replace(text, "00000", " ") Set text to replace(text, "0000", " ") Set text to replace(text, "000", " ") Set text to replace(text, "00", " ") Set text to replace(text, "0", " ")

.

A smarter way to do this is by counting "1" in each line in loops. See this demo:

It generates strings for Y axis in the array (rows), you can modify it for columns.

dop2000 you are the MAN! The solution inside the .capx file was just perfect. Thank you so much!
