Hey I know this is reviving an old thread but... Attaching the Sine behaviour to my Text object and setting the Movement to opacity actually didnt do anything.

Hi!

If you have a way to get actual access to the Objective C code you could ask the user for the device name like this:

NSString *deviceName = [[UIDevice currentDevice] name];

This should return the devices name.

I have no idea how you would get access to the objective c code though. it may be a case of checking how and where the script is and manually modifying the variables using objective c :D. Might actual be quite straight forward.

Is there a quick way to check if any item on a layer has been touched?

I figured the second part to this puzzle out.... The items on the layer need to be brought to the relevant layer in the new layout by moving object one by one to that layout.

More long winded than it should be but I guess these are features to be added.

it need to be done when it is running in the events sheet.

yeah its a layer ordering problem from my tests too... The question is... How can I move these objects to the front layer?

Without this feature expandability of projects and making updates and UI changes are spectacularly long-winded.

This certainly is a feature that needs to be implemented. I want to add an inventory system but I do not want to copy and paste the same rules to multiple layouts... instead I would rather just include the event sheet or include the layer... Life would be made so much easier if I could include the layer... i also saw no way to control the layer order in event sheets.

— here we are! a completely cut down version in which the text from layout 1 does not show in layout 2. layout 1 has 1 layer... layout 2 has 2 layers.

I am not sure if it is what you are looking for but have you considered using a 9patch?

It basically allows you to choose on the image what parts you want to stretch... and what parts you dont.

THis is my problem though... The items are all set as Global to Yes in Object type properties in the Properties bar. So what have I not done?
