  Is there any way in which I can have black borders around my app (as in a browser) and not white borders as what is seen in cocoonjs. I find now that cocoonjs doesn't want to add any borders and instead just scales the background to fill the space, or is this just my imagination?

  Have I maybe got my scaling set up wrong? Capx: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/204115655/Example.capx

  I know that this sounds like an easy question but how would I make it so that a sprite would play its animation whilst the user was in touch and whilst they weren't in touch, the animation would stop?

  I've tried it using the IsInTouch event but I can't seem to get it working.

  Here is my .capx: dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/204115655/touchExample.capx

  You could always set a condition, is on floor and right arrow pressed to grab the 'moving right' one but otherwise, would be nice to see some of these implemented!

  I don't believe that this feature has been implemented but it would be nice to have the ability to assign different colours to different parts of a text object without having to make different text objects for each colour, if you see where I am coming from?

  Very nice! What program/method did you use to make it? :)

  Modelled a simple spaceship inside of 3ds Max and then applied a texture without really unwrapping the model. Then I did quite a bit of post in photoshop using some grunge textures and brushes.

  I liked it. It looks like it is a small ship, but I like the textures.

  But to use this ship I would probably make it very small I think I would work. Next time put a big version like this and a small one just under it, like it was on a shoot'em up game.

  Ahh yes, very good point. I'll be sure to post a different sized versions next time.

  You should do the platformer tutorials, as they explain how to avoid this issue. tutorials

  Seemed to create more problems: dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/204115655/SpriteProblem2.capx

  Check the collision polygon for the player.

  Already tried that, still sinks down.

  Anybody got any idea why the player always drops into the solid?

  Hey guys, this is my first ever (properly) made sprite and I was wondering what you guys think of it? If people like it enough I'll make a ton more even better, with animations for left and right tilt as if the ship was turning on its side.

  A preview:

  And a .png with a transparent background if people want to download it:

  I'm afraid that this will require you to learn to use a vector program like Adobe Illustrator.

  Here are some tutorials:

  Yeah, we'd need the .capx file to help out, try uploading it to dropbox or something.

  Link to .capx file (required!):

  https://www.dropbox.com/s/o9wv6lh4yqr02t9/geoloactionbug.capx

  And a zip to use in cocoonjs: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nex39zaqa384gyc/geolocationbug.zip

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Either export to cocoonjs inside of construct 2 (using the .capx file) or use the zip file provided.

  2. Open .zip in cocconjs on an android tablet and press watch location.

  3. Press stop watching.

  Observed result:

  After pressing 'Stop Watching' there is a pause where no GPS data is collected and then, after about 2 seconds, GPS data continues to be collected and updates the text.

  Expected result:

  All GPS data to stop being collected when 'Stop Watching' is pressed.

  Browsers affected:

  Chrome: No, doesn't happen on PC.

  Firefox: N/A

  Internet Explorer: N/A

  Operating system & service pack:

  Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean)

  Windows 7 64-bit - Service Pack 1

  Construct 2 version: Beta Release r142 (64-bit)

  You could be sneaky and scale them all down but then, hmm, it's a tricky one, hope you haven't done too much already!
