  • Hi Ashley,

    I have both Windows 8.1GA and VS2013 RTM on both my desktop and laptop, but I am only getting the issue on the desktop. Everything works on the laptop. I reinstalled VS 2013 RTM on the desktop but the issue is still there. Not sure if it's a VS2013 bug or maybe a Windows bug in my desktop but others are having the same issue. Could it be a java issue?

    Thanks,

    John

  • Okay, I tested it on a non used laptop, and the text came out correctly. Must be something wrong with Visual Studios on my main production PC. Joining to reinstall VS 2013 see of that correct the problem.

  • Hi,

    I am using Arial regular 24 font. Its locally tested. It works in r147 until I updated to Visual Studios 2013 RTM. I had no problem in the RC. It happens on other two projects.

    That did get the project to build, but there is still issues. All the text boxes are black bars. You can see it in the drop box file I linked for export VS 2013 package.

  • Hello,

    I have a question. How do I make tile 1 pop or snap back to the start location when drop or on collision with 2 from my example? Here is my example.

    Thanks for the help,

    John

  • I got it working completely, and thanks again for your help!

  • Thanks again, I did get it working, but now I have another question.

    Is there a way to reset the global variables when the page load. I tried both startofLayout ->Set variable(Name)=0 and reset global, and both seem to lock up the tiles.

    I uploaded my working project on the web. The reason I need to reset them is because each page has different blanks and the pages are random. From the online version the complete layer is active because of the global variable therefore, when it recycles pages the layer becomes active. Is there another way to handle it because I think I might be going at it all the wrong way. I am still learning.

    I also updated the linked cabx file from my first post to the new code within the online project.

    Thanks again for your help,

    Thanks for the reply! I tried the suggestions, but I am still unable to get it to work correctly. Could you make the suggested changes and reload the file?

  • Hi,

    I am trying to replace sprite(tile) with a drag and drop sprite, and make layer become visible. (see attached Cabx)Also, I added layout random (just 3 layouts inn project) I have tried different ways. Made a global variable/local (TileCount, and I can not get it to work. I think the condition is not working to make layer 3 (Complete) visible. Then again it might just be the way I coded it. So if anyone can help me or point me in the correct direction, I will be very grateful for any help.

    Thanks for the reply! Okay, how do I add then to a grid? Do I do it within Construct or within Photoshop?

  • Hello,

    I am trying to get the built in sprite font plugin working with custom sprite font sheet that I created in Photoshop. I have been trying to get it the text fonts to line up correctly, but I am unable to get it working.

    I have upload a example and Photoshop file, and maybe someone who know more about sprite fonts more that I do can help or point me in the right direction.
