  • Hi

    I'm glad you like my asset.

    Yes you can. One way is to resize an image so you get a frame size of e.g. 32x32 pixels. One other way is to use a png compress tool. But I think the first method is way more effective and in most cases your game will look just as good.

    Regards,

    Mikael

  • Problem solved!

    I changed my code to:

    RexDate.Date & "-" & RexDate.Month & "-" & RexDate.Year

    and now it works.

    Day is returning day number (0...6)

    Date is returning day of month (1..31)

  • Hi

    When I try to get the todays date using Rex's Date Time plugin I do not get the correct date!?

    E.g. today it is the 28. feb. 2015 (Windows clock report "28-02-2015" in lower right corner in my Task bar) , but 'Day-Month-Year' is returned like this '6-2-2105' !?

    This is my code:

    RexDate.Day & "-" & RexDate.Month & "-" & RexDate.Year

    and it return 6-2-1015

    What is going on here?! Does the plugin really not calculate the date correct (at least not here in Denmark (Europe)?

  • Ok. Thanks for explaining.

  • I thought so, but it seems like an error. I guess it would be easy to change by Scirra, but if changed it will properly break games that depends on this rather strange and wrong (IMO) behavior.

    I wonder how to fix the issue in the attached capx project? Beginning to mangle with coordinates to ensure correct scale seems not that trivial.

  • Problem Description

    Scaling a sprite does not take origin into account when using anchors.

    Attach a Capx

    See AnchorError.caps

    Description of Capx

    The CapX shows 5 sprites (yellow circles). 4 of them are anchored in each corner of the layout - and one (located just below a button) is not anchored. The button will change the scale of all sprites when clicked.

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

    • Step 1. Press the button.
    • Step 2. Look at the sprites, that scaled randomly. Observed Result The problem is that anchored sprites are NOT scale around their origin (but always at origin 0,0). Expected Result I expect that scaling (even for anchored sprites) will honor the sprites origin when scaled. Affected Browsers
