Can you upload it? How many variables are you using?

Why is it that I can only write into a text box when:

A - It's on screen

B - It's visible

?

I have events in place that state it's always in focus. This is so I can write into the text box and the content will always be shown in a text object. Anyone know how to achieve this with these 'features' in place?

*UPDATE*

Upon doing further tests it seems that even setting the on-screen box to a vertical size of zero will not allow me to enter text, and also auto size must be switched on if the text box is too small.

Therefore, Ashley, please may I request that text boxes can be focused even if they are invisible or off screen? At the moment I can't think of a way to allow people to write into Sprite.Font or normal font objects without text boxes.

This (hopefully) minor feature is important for 2 of my current ongoing projects.

Ashley - Makes sense. Still, this was originally created 5 months ago. Did the developer really not let you know about it? It's such a small thing, but it improves the plugin massively.
"If the change is very small, please just suggest it as an official feature. It can probably be added quickly in to the next beta release. This removes the need for a third party plugin at all."

If it is indeed small, please can this be added as an official feature? I've never really gotten on with the official SpriteFont, but this one was great!

Thanks for your hard work, Ashley!

Ashley - I notice that you haven't been tagged into this post at all, so I don't know if you're even aware of it. Might this be easy to introduce into an upcoming C2 release? I'm working on a text heavy game for the Wii U at the moment, and it'd be nice to see what my text would look like in the editor rather than only runtime.

Can this plugin be fixed, please? It's a lot better than the official plugin, purely because you can see how things look in the editor, and you don't have to worry about arrays/JSON.

It's frustrating for me that Games Factory back in 1999 managed to get an easy to use Sprite Font, and here we are in 2014 and Construct 2 requires that you jump though hoops to get it to work. I very much doubt anyone could easily get to grips with the sprite font tool without a tutorial.

Best yet, make this the official plugin!!! I don't see why that's so hard. The author seems more than pleased for that to happen.

Please can this thread be locked? Really tired of these alerts, and the un-subscribe system doesn't work

Hi, I have the same problem, the touch screen does not help, I think is more with this type of export is not required in previous touch screen.

I'm trying, even removing the loop on the music, but still not working ...

If I find the solution informs you.

Is it possible for someone to start a new thread on this? I didn't mean this to turn into a monster thread when I started it, and I keep getting notified on each and every post
