  Hi!

  I need to access the file behind a Sprite object after exporting for Windows 8.

  If I have a plugin action which takes an argument as Object and I invoke it with a sprite object, I am able to obtain the file name for that sprite with the following code:

  Is this a reliable way to get the file name backing the sprite object?

  var inst = objectImage.getFirstPicked();

  if (!inst || !inst.curFrame)

     return;

  var imgLocation = inst.curFrame.texture_file; // returns images\filename0.png

  I changed Chrome to Internet Explorer, i found a button "View in Windows Store" and found your game, not cool Microsoft didnt make a good job to support cross browser to have "View in Windows Store" button.

  I came across the following:

  "..Currently, up-to-date versions of Internet Explorer, Safari, and Firefox support Windows 8 protocols... If a user visits a web-based listing page while on Windows 8 and on a browser that supports Windows 8 protocols, they will see the ?View in Windows Store? button, allowing them to transition to the app listing page in the Windows Store. "

  Looks like may be Chrome has to enable the support?

  I couldnt find your game on windows store because i typed your game name and found no results

  :(

  Were you able to click the app link above? It should take you to a page with "View in Windows Store" option from where you should be able to install.

  I have published a game Blast the bricks to the Windows Store. I have written a short write up on what features from the plugin I used for this game.

  Also, update this thread with your Windows 8 publication for us to discover each other's games!

  You will need to follow the steps outlined here:http://c2metro.wordpress.com/2012/07/27/support-for-live-tiles/

  Specifically, you will have to make sure to name your file app-widelogo.png for the wide logo.

  Hi,

  I noticed that when the game is in "filled" mode the game is not centered correctly. See this image for an example.

  Also, is it possible for the letterboxing to be pure black instead of a dark grey? I Think the dark grey comes from the ui-dark.css file, correct? Oh, and one last question. :) Is it safe to use the latest beta release (r105) with this plugin or do you recommend r104?

  Many thanks,

  Fredrik

  Fredrik:

  1. For the background color, yes it is getting the dark grey from ui-dark.css. A quick and dirty way to override is to add a style to the body tag in your index.html file:

  <body style="background-color:rgb(0,0,0)">

  2. For the incorrect centering, I will fix it in an update for the plugin shortly. But here is the simple fix: you will have to reorder the divs "fs" and "c2canvasdiv" in index.html so that it looks like this below:

          <div id="c2canvasdiv">     

              <!-- The canvas must be inside a div called c2canvasdiv -->

              <div id="fs" class="grid-item">

  3. r105 is working fine.

  bon4ire:

  This plugin is for Windows 8. (It is not for Windows Phone 8 if that is what you mean "mobile").

  But with "mobile" if you meant a tablet running Windows 8, you can fix your game's orientation preference to portrait when you open your app in VS2012 and go to package.appxmainfest file->Application UI Tab select Portrait and Portrait-flipped under Supported rotations.
