  • Yes, you can load images at runtime. That's for flexibility, say if you take a pic via webcam or allow the user to import their sprite. There's no way to know what image a user may pic, so you obviously can't drag/resize it in the layout editor. If you want to load an image or sprite in you can do so via the Picture Editor, or animations via the Animator.

    Let me know if you meant something else.

  • Sounds good to me .

  • David tells me he moddled all these sprites off real life objects.

  • Yes, resource handling needs working on, putting fonts in the .exe and then rendering from them would be excellent (though we're still not sure on how practical it is with DX).

    Could you explain what you mean with regard to:

    "I know you can load resources (like images) from other locations using "AppPath +" but then you get none of the ease-of-use benefits that Construct provides, like WYSIWYG positioning."

    Thanks

  • Yeah, it matters not if it's deleted now. We have some references on fairly big websites already, but I guess crossing the line to true notability may include reviews from professional websites, polished finished games on develop websites, etc.

  • You can be in charge of hammocks.

  • Hmm, no joy downloading this.. Mediafire keeps saying it's processing my download request .

  • A private variable is the best way, yes. When talking about flags as a programmer, we mean setting a variable to 0 or 1 .

  • Sometimes it's unneccesary to have contexts menus when there are visible toolbars/buttons to modify something, like with layers and in the picture editor.

    What exactly would be in the context menus?

    Also, right clicking cancels selections.

  • Can you add only X/Y axis dragging?

    That'd be handy, I'm trying to make custom scrollbars. Also maybe a 'limit X/Y', so it could be fixed width.

  • No it's not easy It's probably the easiest method, but as Ashley said I'm sure how widely it could be taken up as a new unknown Active-X.

    I doubt we'll see anything for months/years on that front .

  • Notability criteria means you either establish notability or the article concerns something which passes a threshold in a google search - done case by case. If something is obviously very popular or established it's clear from the google results.

  • The article does read somewhat like an advert, and has no links establishing Construct's popularity or notability.. therefore it's doomed to deletion.

    It needs independent links from high ranking software websites, such as reviews or mentions.

  • [quote:1yrtrg90]If you stretch the window, DirectX does an automatic stretch with linear filtering. That cannot be changed, DirectX doesn't support it (don't ask me why it's like that). The best thing to do is to make your window the true size in application properties, then zoom the display to 200%. With point sampling on, you should get everything double-sized, and nice and pixelly.

    I'm thinking you could override OnSize and do a resolution switch to the nearest available res? Perhaps a runtime setting.
