i'm using this behaviour a lot.

semms like most things are working ok at my end. would love to be able to input expressions instead of fixed numbers

i am using internet explorer 9 on win7 to test.

i checked out with chrome and the problem does not happen.

my target is ie10 as i want to deliver my project as a "metro" app. i have tested my project on windows8 ie10 and it works fine there.

so i can survive this issue, as ie9 was just a temp testing platform

thanks for the idea, but it won't work in my case.

i need a way to "kickstart" the particle generator to generate a lot of particles for a spilt second and then reset it to normal speed so that the layout looks full of particles at startup

I am playing the same 10 sound effects one time after another. Each sound effect is 1 second long.

After I play them all 6 times each, they stop playing.

Is there a limitation of how many times a sound can be player? Do I need to manually "STOP" a sound after it has played?

yes the latest version of c2 can directly export to desktop exe through Awesomium

Both.

You need to compile the final in VS2012, which has output options for both architectures

To submit your app to the Windows store, you need an individual dev account

is it possible to make the Particles start out at the beginning of a Layout already populating a part of the screen?

I want to do a moving stars effect in the background, but as soon as the layout starts, they start coming out little by little and the screen does not look nice empty.

I tried putting 9000 as a speed value to make them come out really fast for a split second, and then reset the speed to 100, but I was not successful.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

yes it's just the way that construct2 works

will have to work around it as i need to change the colors to red in the middle of the code not just at startup!

that's what i did but there was no Add-AppDevPackage script in the latest VS2012 :)

if i remember well i right clicked on the package name and installed

Thanks a lot for the clarification.

I have a lot of these conditions embedded in my project, so it's going to take a good restructuring to try to work around it, but at least i now know the WHY

Here is a capx to show the above in action:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54046169/test.capx

I have a layout with 6 blue boxes.

As soon as layout starts, I iterate through all 6 blue boxes, destroy them and spawn red boxes in their place.

All is fine until now.

I then want to iterate through all 6 red boxes and make the first 4 with 50% opacity and the other 2 with 0% opacity. Here is where it is failing.

I am using Families.

What is happening is that the second FOR EACH loop is still referencing the blue boxes and setting them 50% and 0% opacity even if they were destroyed.

What am I doing wrong?
