  Thanks Ferguson, I'm purchasing a full business licence this week which should allow me to play with the Node Webkit stuff...

  I'll let you know how I get on.

  Many thanks for your reply,

  Matt.

  I'm trying to create an app where whenever someone types some text into a text box a presses 'save' the text is added to a .txt (or other text file) file stored on a server/my computer (i may use the Node WebKit to create an offline version)...

  I'm pretty sure this is possible but having trouble finding the solution anywhere... Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

  Many thanks...

  Hey,

  I'm working on a game where the user can select a sprite by clicking on it. When this happens a red box appears around the sprite to let the user know they have selected it.

  I have used "Mouse ~ On Left Button Clicked On Sprite1 ~ Highlight1 set visible & dropdownbox1 select item 1"

  My question is; how do I set it so when anywhere outside of the sprite is clicked that the highlight is set back to invisible and the dropdownbox will be set to item 0?

  Many thanks...
