Yup,

I havent check it out on the new Win 7 yet but

had similar problems with it on both xp and Vista.

Like you I too use Construct to quickly mock-up ideas

rather then having to code in Visual Studio and yes the

combo box has been a disappointment...I would keep

checking it with each new version of construct and

oh-well. I do alot of non-game constructing and just

work around combobox issue with listbox and editbox

and sometimes make it go invisible (listbox) kinda like

a context menu...using a text object as tigger but

this can get kinda complex so like you I do at times find

myself back in C++ or VB humping code but I would hate

to have them remove what eventually well be a very

useful object. I see construct as so much more then

a game-maker and my greatest fear is that it well slip

into a specialty rut. If the developers think "oh its

a game making app so lets take all these things out"

then I believe a great idea well have just become

a neat idea and what was AMAZING well fall to the

status of pretty cool. So keep the combo box.

Yes 100% outdoes anything I've come across. I can't help telling everyone I talk to about it and its amazing that the dev dont charge big bucks for it already.

Sometimes I cant get to sleep at night because I just lay in bed with thoughts of what I can do with construct. My nephew is only 8 and I got him to download a copy and I sort of explained the basics to him and in about a month he was making some games that are probably sellable.

He's not the brightest in his class but construct has really got him headed in a good direction. Also I used construct to quickly create a little app that satisfied a need my friend had at his job...something he couldnt find anywhere else.

He was constantly having to search through different folders for form-letters and stock-replies. He asked me if my construct program could do anything to help. I made a small app that gave him instant access to all his text files and with a click put the text he needed onto the clipboard...it took me part of a weekend to whip out a pretty smooth program and when I gave it to him on monday after talking about his need on friday night he couldnt believe that I made it...he kept saying "no really where did you download this from?"

It works so well that he keeps it open all the time. Construct really is amazing. The developers deserve some kind of an award !!!

(will send money if you tell me how to get the window to stay on top of all other windows and I turn this program commercial...it is pretty useful.)

I just want to say thank you to the developers. AMAZING!
