  • I'm trying to create a desktop application (NW.js) that saves a pdf that is stored as a project file to a location specified by the user (save dialog?), but I can't for the life of me work it out.

    I've tried:

    Browser > Invoke Download: Path: Files; File: ALS_2a.pdf

    NW-JS > Open Browser: URL: Files/ALS_2a.pdf

    and all sorts of other variants.

    Is it possible?

  • Small update. I did some digging and I assume the display is using the IE engine which in my case is IE11. When I open the startpage.html directly in IE11 I get several error messages in the console one specifically:

    CSS was ignored due to mime type mismatch (main.css)

    CSS was ignored due to mime type mismatch (jquery.fancybox-1-3-4.csss)

    and finally:

    Script438: Object doesn't support property or method 'GetMRU1'

    File: startpage.html, line 171, column 6

    Does anyone know how to fix this. I've tried resetting my IE11 settings (I don't use the browser anyway). Opening the page in Chrome displays it correctly.

  • This has been bothering me for a few weeks now, since I first installed Construct 2 (first install). The start page doesn't display correctly and the Online menu links don't do anything either. I've tried a full uninstall (Revo uninstaller) and nothing seems to help. I even tried installing the latest beta (192).

    Is there anyway I can get it showing properly?

    Windows 8.1 64Bit

    8Gb RAM

    Radeon HD7900

    Radeon HD5450 (2md and 3rd monitors)

    Construct 2 64Bit is installed on drive D, not the OS partition.

  • Try Construct 3

  • That works great. I'll give that a try.

    I didn't realise you could have an action without an event, as in the last line that just has the Set Click to 0.

    The method I finished with yesterday before receiving your example was very close

  • I'm having difficulties with clickable objects spawned on top of a clickable objects firing their events.

    For example; I have a box that when clicked should spawn a circle and delete its self. Clicking the circle should spawn a diamond and delete the circle. Clicking the diamond should spawn the original box and delete the diamond.

    The problem I'm having is that clicking the first box applies the click to the circle and then the diamond resulting in the box appearing to have not changed.

    I ensured the order was backwards in the event sheet and this results in the box turning into the circle correctly but it cannot turn the circle, and then into the diamond, but from the diamond it skips the box and moves to the circle (because the event for the box click is after the diamond).

    I hope that makes sense - quite confusing I know.

    I also tried setting a variable for the state of the left moues button to see if I could emulate a mouse up condition after each click on the object - that didn't work.

    I was hoping there might have been a mouse event that is for Mouse Up so the click would only fire when the mouse has been pressed and released over an object, or some way of preventing mouse clicks to apply to all objects under the cursor (so only the top most is affected).

    Thanks for any help, I'm quite new to C2.
