  Why ? Is it because the loading process is too slow for a loop ?

  Bingo.

  There is an "On image loaded" trigger for sprite you can try.

  Also it will work for tiled background.

  Not sure you can do in line bold, but every thing else should be doable.

  The textbox object works rather nice for that.

  Just set the preferences to text area.

  Yeah I noticed it has some issues with loading cross domain images, and drawing past the bounding box threw an error.

  Coincidentally the draw seems to draw to the resolution rather than by pixel. Like draw x2 4 y2 4 filled the 16x16 object.

  Is it possible to draw more than one quad on an instance?

  Say multiple points, as if you were drawing on an instance?

  I agree with thehen as you already know the logic, and C2 makes implementing that much easier than regular code.

  I do remember reading about this:thing a while back. Another kind of wizardry all together.

  Id say you're probably advertising in the wrong place however.

  Even the most novice here could put the events to do this together, then again a capx would mean little to a web developer elsewhere, as its not a format that they would find useful.

  Any chance you could add the base 64 image url to this?

  Create a variable we'll call it "canTouchDis", and set its initial value to "stop".

  Now make an on input event like on clicked, or on touched object, and then make a sub event that compares "canTouchDis" ="hammerTime", do the hammer dance.

  Then all you would need to do is make an event that changed stop to hammerTime in another event.

  You don't.

  You can warn the user to be ready for it, but that's it.

  I just invented "The Whack-A-Mole Method" using the timer behavior.

  You do your actions while a timer is running.

  Probably not good for every situation since it would do things multiple times.

  Its not pretty, but its as efficient as a shotgun in a knife fight.
