  • Sorry to say, I've made no progress with this at all.

    There seems to be an increasing amount of developers that are having problems with iOS and iframes (inability to scroll, iframe only partially being rendered, etc.). Despite the increase in reported problems, I've not seen any definitive solutions offered.

    So, if you come across anything that might help, please let us all know! :)

    Cheers,

  • Thanks for the suggestion, Ashley. Sorry to say, it didn't work.

    The iframes don't seem to be receiving any touch input. If I tap the buttons in the iframe, the iPad offers to copy the iframe for me.

    I did accidentally get a touch event to trigger once (and only once)on an iPhone(iOS7 & Safari). I was holding it vertically and pounding on the screen. The touch event triggered and then the browser freaked out (screen redraws of the iframe all over the place). As one would expect, it froze up after that. While finding new ways to crash Apple products is entertaining, it's not the sort of progress I was hoping for. :)

    I have seen elsewhere that some coders are having issues with iOS and iframes in that they are not able to get the content inside the iframe to scroll. Possibly related? Yay Apple.

    Any suggestions (short of "Android") definitely welcome!

    Cheers,

  • Hi, all!

    I was wondering if anyone had any tips/tricks/suggestions for how to make iframes and iPads/iPhones play nicely together.

    We embed our games on our site with iframes and it works great... EXCEPT with iOS devices.

    • All of our games use the Touch Object
    • Every other hardware/browser combination works fine in the iframe
    • When a game is in an iframe, the iOS device doesn't seem to be activating the Touch Object.
    • All the games work fine on iOS devices if they are NOT in an iframe.

    At first, I suspected that it might be a Mobile Safari issue, however, I had the same thing happen using Chrome for iOS. Ugh.

    As I don't want to leave the Jobsian-Fondleslab crowd out in the cold, I'd like to get this fixed if at all possible.

    Thanks! :)

  • Link to .capx file (required!):

    No .capx file to save - program freezes

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Open new project (WebGL enabled/disabled, doesn't matter)

    2. Insert Text Object.

    3. Add event: System | On start of layout

    4. Add action: Text | Set web font

    Observed result:

    No action is added to the event and C2 freezes. I can only close C2 by killing it in the Windows Task Manager.

    This has been happening for me since [r139]. At one point, there was a popup window displayed that may have been titled "Objects with actions," a few seconds before C2 completely froze. Only saw that popup a few times and then it never appeared again.

    Expected result:

    I would *really* like to be able to use web fonts (and not have to kill C2 every time I attempt it).

    Browsers affected:

    Chrome: N/A

    Firefox: N/A

    Internet Explorer: N/A

    Operating system & service pack:

    Win7 Home Premium 64bit SP1

    Construct 2 version:

       r141

  • I'm able to get [r139] to freeze each and every time by trying to set a web font. Only able to exit the program by killing it in Task Manager.

    New Project:

    -> System |On start of layout| Text | Set web font

    I'm using Win7 Home Premium, SP1

    It would be kinda nice to be able to use web fonts again. <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
