Hi,

My project is being designed for a 4:3 ration. However, when exported to cocoonjs on phones etc the layout will be more like 16:9 or 3:2.

The problem I am having is with wrap. I have an object set to wrap and in letterbox scale everything is working as expected. However, when I set to "scale" (which emulates what will happen when I put it on a tablet/phone device) the object wraps incorrectly and now disappears part way across the screen.

How, do I reset wrap so that it knows about the current size of the layout?

I have attached a simple capx to show what I mean.

Run it first and see bullet moves off the screen and comes back as expected.

Now, set the project to "scale" and the bullet disappears about 3/4 across.

Yann I love this example but I have one problem with it. I am using the touch version. My UI layer is scale 0, parallax 0,0. In letterbox scale everything is super. However, I noticed when I run it on a 16:9 tablet and I touch the slider it instantly jumps to the right. So I tried setting my project to scale and bang it does it too. So it appears that if the layout is in scale then the set x calculations are incorrect.

It is starting to do my head in. Am I missing something obvious? Help!

Could we please get a function so that we can easily figure out which layout a sprite is used? At the moment I have to save as xml files and then search with 3rd party tool.

At the same time when an existing sprite is loaded with a new image can we have the option to retain current size? At the moment if I replace a 600x600 image with 512x512 image all instances seem to jump to 512x512.

Ashley - love the colour coding - any reason it is not applied to the whole event sheet? It would make the code easier to follow.
and pretty please

ctrl-home jump to top of event sheet

ctrl-end - jump to bottom of sheet

ctrl-shift-1 set bookmark 1 (where one is one to to nine)

ctrl-1 jump to bookmark

Bookmarks per event sheet

The deactivate works on all event sheets, they don't have to be included. The problem I was having was that one layout was deactivating code belonging to another event sheet.

HOw do you mean?

I would like to have it so that layout is visible and taking up as much room as possible and then be able to switch to show the code. Just like other RAD style IDEs.
