  I didn't know there was any difference in Safari between C2 and C3's previews. Their fullscreen rules are obscure, undocumented and change pretty much every Safari release, so it's hard to know why that happens or what to do about it.

  Browsers don't have permission to run a HTTP server, which makes it impossible to implement preview-over-Wifi in the browser, which is why we made Remote Preview instead. Since that's the only option, it would be better to try to figure out why it's not working at LAN speed for you and what could be done about it. It seems it's working fine for the vast majority of users, as complaints about it seem to be rare.

  I think for touches, only the touch end counts as a user gesture. For mouse/button clicks or key presses it shouldn't matter.

  I think modern mobile devices only allow secure connections from mobile apps for security reasons.

  Press F12 and check for a more detailed error message in the browser console.

  Why does the C3 Remote preview doesn't preview in full screen and on C2 it works?

  I don't know what you mean. I would have thought they both displayed the same in a mobile browser or supported the "request fullscreen" action equally. What difference are you referring to exactly?

  Also as I've said in the past, remote preview should be as fast as local preview, so long as the device can establish a LAN connection. Whether or not that happens depends on your network configuration, which is out of our control unfortunately.

  If you have 36 frames for each 10 degree increment, you should be able to just set the animation frame to a single formula something like ((Car.MoveTo.MovingAngle+360)%360)/10. However that will map 0-10 degrees to the first frame - if you want the first frame to be -5 to +5 degrees, then just shift it back by 5 degrees with something like ((Car.MoveTo.MovingAngle+355)%360)/10

  It's only supported with using an iframe, so you should use that.

  Oh, well despite the name Drawing Canvas does not actually use a <canvas> element (it uses a render-to-texture in WebGL), so there is nowhere to call captureStream() for just the Drawing Canvas. You'll just have to use some video editing software to crop the result. I'm not sure that can easily be done automatically with the existing APIs either (e.g. captureStream does not support cropping).

  In Construct text is rendered via a canvas, not HTML and not using CSS, so changing any CSS properties will not have any effect. As I mentioned I think this comes down to browser differences between where Chrome and Safari measure text and is difficult to work around.

  The Game Recorder 'Start recording' action already captures just the canvas using captureStream().

  See the scripting section of the manual which covers details around module scope and workers that affect this.

  Use the NW.js object to read a binary file in to a Binary Data object. Then you can load the Binary Data's GetURL expression as the image URL.

  Today I ran into the fact that right now the SCIRRA multiplayer servers are not responding to requests.

  I just checked, and it seems to be working fine for me.
