  • AllanR - Wow! Works like a charm! You're an excellent instructor. Thank you so much and you need to do more tutorials. You're a natural teacher. Thanks again!

  • AllanR Hi Allan. Brilliant design! I actually bought something similar on this site that was much too complicated. Your swipe design is smooth and simple. One question; Do you have any idea how to get a tab on top to show on all of the layouts without scrolling with the tiles? I was thinking something similar to whatsapp with the CALLS CHATS AND CONTACT tabs. Lastly, do you have like a donate page where people who use your design can donate funds?

  • Nandynho After testing on several mobile devices, I found that the textbox and Iframe only work on Android 4.4 and higher. The response is very slow or hardly work at all on any version below 4.4 So thank you for all of your suggestions. I hope that this post can assist anyone else out there who may going through the same procedures. Again, thanks cheers!

  • leotaglia It does work for opening internet sites. The problem I am having is when I try to type into the input box in the iframe. Even though the keyboard comes up it still doesn't allow me to type any text in sometimes. But as Nandynho mentioned, the Iframe and the text box are made up of the same HTML element, which led me to test the input box also when exported to PhoneGap via Cordovo. And yes, the input boxes are not allowing me to enter text, so I know I must be doing something wrong. I also read a lot of problems regarding this issue in this forum. I am not sure what the working solution is.

  • Thank you for responding Nandynho . I did try to use it on an Android device after exporting using Cordova. However, it didn't work for me. Maybe I will try it on anther device. But I also read that using Iframe is also not wholly secured

  • Acey Hey what's up? Did you get started with the Login/Register module you referred to above? I am desperate to find a solution for users to login to my game securely. I tried using the iframe, which works well in browsers, but it doesn't work once I export to Cordova. But using the inputs from the C2 canvas to use as a login is a security risk. So anyone has a work around that would be great!

  • — Hey I have recently completed the first release of a game I have been working on for some time. I am using pode's iframe plugin, which is fabulous! Since my game requires a secure login, I use the iframe to have the user login from another secure URL, then once the user's credentials are verified the game becomes accessible. I do this by using the "Compare URL" condition of the iframe. This all works perfectly on all browsers, however the problem begins after I export to Cordova and then upload to PhoneGap to create the app. When I open the app on my phone, I am unable to type in the inputs of the iframe. Not sure why this isn't working. If anyone has successfully used iframe for login, I would love hear how it was done. I would appreciate any assistance at this time. sample link can be found here:

  • The offline.appcache has been one of my greatest pet peeves with Construct 2. I too have to upload updated material constantly and I always run into the problem of having the older version of my upload being shown instead of the most recent upload. Sometimes this process takes up hours and days of my time. I have suggested having the offline.appcache function as an option during export. I personally never really need it until my final export, when everything has been tested. But I guess not enough people have a problem with this feature to have it changed.

  • Ashely A few months ago I started a post expressing various problems I have had when trying to update my games using the offline.appache file. There were several replies suggesting ways to resolve this problem, including changing the timestamp at the top of the offline.appcache file, or deleting the cache from chrome or other browsers. None of these suggestions really solved the problem for me.

    However, I recently discovered that the real problem was not the offline.appache file or the browser itself, but the ftp server I was using at the time, which was filezilla.

    My original post- https://www.scirra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=146&t=92566

    I've never had this problem since I started uploading my files using my host’s file manager upload tools. Apparently, the problem with filezilla is the directory caching. Sometimes when I rename a folder and upload the updated version of my game, I discover that the updated files were really not uploaded. My guess is that permission to access the new folder was denied. But there were no indications or notices of this.

    Anyway, I hope this helps someone out there who might be experiencing this same problem. Further reading can be done on this topic by following this link;

  • newt, thanks a lot! I appreciate your assistance. I will try your suggestions.

  • — I need to use listbox because it is easier to take the contents and store them in a database versus taking the value from each textbox.

    newt What I really meant was I need the spacing to be as such;

    something.value&[space] [space] [space] &someother.value&[space] [space] [space]&this.value.

    I need for the text spacing to be different on each index so that it is aligned properly similiar to an invoice or a receipt.

  • Try Construct 3

  • — Firstly, thank you for you reply. I should have explained a little better. The problem is when I try to expand the spacing like the following; your.value&" "&someother.value&" "&this.value . It still only defaults to just one spacing. I am not sure if I am making myself clear on this. If I do this in a textbox it works fine.

  • I am currently working on an invoice program using C2. I would like to display the first order on index 0, followed by the second order on index 1 using a listbox similiar to the following;

    Below shows the quantity, item, description and subtotal of each product

    1 [space] beer [space] kalik gold [space] $3.00

    1 [space] pk cigarette [space] benson & hed [space] $4.50

    The problem seems to be that lisboxes do not allow any spacing between text in each of the index. I would grately appreciate if any one can explain or has a solution that will allow me to space items in each index.

  • — am an avid supporter of this suggestion! The offline.appache feature makes my life a living hell whenever I am trying to edit and update my game. I fully support it being an option.

    I also have this issue with mobile devices. But since this work for you, I will try deleting the file temporarily like you do.
