    n/a - happens in any file

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Create a new sprite

    2. Bring up sprite editor

    Observed result:

    Color palette window overlaps editor window. If the window is moved out of the way, the position will be reset the next time the window is open, one again covering the editor. Window position is not being remembered. This applies to the color palette, the Image points window, and other windows such as the expression helper.

    Expected result:

    Window should remember last position, not have to be moved every time to see the editor window.

    Browsers affected:

    n/a

    Operating system & service pack:

    Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit

    Construct 2 version:

  • There are a few things that need tiny little tweaks and adjustments on C2. Scirra is a 2 man team, so this may be something added down the road, or not. Don't sweat it too much.

    I know they are a small and an absolutely incredible team. I'm not worried about it - I just was basically responding to earlier posts that said it could never, ever be added because of various reasons. It's not a dealbreaker at all, it would just be nice to have, but is certainly low down on priorities.

  • I see there still has not been any progress on this. I understand needing the flexibility to be able to specify a name, but why could it not also allow you to pick from a list of available animations in the targeted object? It seems like both could be accommodated in the same dialog and would make it much easier when you have a lot of objects with animations.

  • I am having a weird problem in the latest version of Construct 2 (152 64 bit), on Windows 8.1. Whenever a window opens, it is always in the middle of the screen, overlapping everything else. For example, the origin window in the sprite editor, the "objects with expressions" window when setting an instance variable, etc. I move the windows out of the way, but each time, it goes back to the middle, obscuring what is beneath it. I've never encountered this before. I tried resetting the dialogs to their default position and restarting the program, but to no avail.

    Any ideas how to fix this? It is irritating to have to move the window out of the way every time, especially when editing sprites, as it overlaps the sprite itself until moved out of the way.

  • I am absolutely loving Construct 2 so far, and just have a minor suggestion. Given how many other places you are able to select from a list of things, it seems odd that the Set Animation action makes you enter the animation name in quotes, instead of choosing from the list of animations in the selected object. Not earth shattering, but it would be an improvement to select from a list, especially if you have a lot of named animations.

  • Hello, my name is Andrew. I'm web application developer who has finally decided to take the plunge into game development. I've always loved gaming and have a lot of ideas I'd love to make a reality. So far I'm extremely impressed with Construct2 and immediately bought a license. I look forward to learning game development using this fantastic tool.
