  • I reported this in the past:

    But they don't want to change it.

  • Keep in mind, you can't have global objects on global layers, otherwise they'll get duplicated everytime you change layout.

  • byondisoft , thanks! that works that is interesting that you have to re-position the canvas.

  • If you use windows Vista or XP, you'll have to use v0.13.2 or older. Anything newer than chromium 49 will not work on vista or xp because support for those platforms have been dropped.

    Also, Mac OS X releases 10.6, 10.7, and 10.8 have been dropped

  • Can you clarify on what you mean when you say combining the layouts?

    You can't merge them into one layout in the editor if that's what you mean.

  • Thanks.. that must be the issue.

  • I was under the impression that devices such as drawing tablets would work with the touch events, but I can't seem to receive pressure of a touch using one.

    Has anyone else managed to get this to work?

    I've tried firefox with

    dom.w3c_touch_events.enabled

    and chrome with

    --enable-experimental-web-platform-features

    In both cases, pressure just returns a value of 0.

  • newt, I want to scale a single axis, such as it's width or height values.

    This is possible with sprites, by adjusting their width/height. If layouts/layers can be scaled- it would make sense to maintain some consistency and allow adjusting the x,y axis separately for those as well.

  • Ashley, thanks. I just tried it in r232. Why can't users specify different values for x,y axis when scaling a layout or layer?

    I'd like to be able to flip or mirror the layout/layers, and setting the scale to -1 just ends up with it rotated 180 basically since both axis get flipped instead of one.

  • Problem Description

  • oh, I guess that would essentialy change the position of the origin.. so it might not be what you want.

    You could maybe use a separate sprite object that doesn't rotate and is invisible, and then use your visible sprite to be allowed to rotate.

  • First thought that comes to my mind is use an imagepoint located at wherever you want the center.

    Then, to rotate sprite:

    -find position of imagepoint relative to layout via imagepointX(), imagepointY()

    -now calculate the angle and distance from imagepoint to the origin of the sprite.

    -set position of sprite to imagepointX+cos(calculatedAngle+rotationAmount)*calculatedDistance

    -do the same for Y, but use Sin() instead of Cos()

    -Now rotate the sprite by the same rotationAmount.
