  • I have a question.

    Where do I access the config.xml file? I always export my app as "signed release apk" and then construct handles all the building apk.

    Same question

  • the problem is that event 2 checks if the switch is on, if so then turn it off.

    then event 3 checks if it is off and then turns it right back on.

    event 3 should be an Else statement so it will only run if event 2 is false.

    Thanks at all! I didn't exactly understand how it worked, but I just did.

  • You should use toggle boolean.

    Then set the animation equal boolean value.

    Much cleaner that way. But if I want to put a set text on/off, I can't do it like that.

  • Perhaps the Switch Objects animation speed is something other than "0"?

    No, the animation speed is 0.

    Here the c3p:

  • This must be first grade, but either I don't understand the concept or I don't know what's going on.

    I created a square sprite, the idea is that if you press it, it changes to frame 1 which is blue and if you hit it again, it returns to frame 0.

    To manage it I created a boolean variable called "on".

    I thought it would be as simple as doing it this way:

    That I play the sprite and the Boolean is fake? So I turn it on and frame 1. Then it's true? Well, when you click it does the opposite.

    But when you execute, the switch is ON and it doesn't go back to false.

    Another thing, if I change the order of System is on and System X is On it doesn't do the same, it doesn't even turn ON anymore.

    Such a relatively simple thing and I don't see the problem.

    I'm sure it's something totally silly. I know I could use "else" and it would work. But I don't understand why not, and why changing the order makes it even worse.

    Thanks a lot

  • In your screenshot "TimeStamp" is an auto-complete and indicates what value you should put between the parenthesis.

    Since you want the actual month, according to the actual time/date, you can make use of the expression .now within the Date plugin.

    + System: On start of layout

    -> Text: Set text to Date.GetUTCMonth(Date.Now)

    Will display "5" in your text object.

    As indicated, the month is returned from 0 to 11 (0 is January, 1 is February, etc...).

    If you want to display the month in "letters"/as word, you likely need to set up an array that contains your months and display it accordingly.

    See this example c3p made in r201

    Oh, thanks a lot!!! That's exactly what I was looking for.

  • Hello,

    I'm trying to do Y-axis icon movement in the style of a mobile operating system, you hit up or down and all the icons move and if you hit one, it loses visibility (I did that as a test, it will actually lead to another layout)

    I've grouped all the icons to a family called Icons.

    How can I make it so that when I press and it moves to one side or another all the icons behave as if you were moving a layer like an ios or android but up and down?

    I don't understand if the family has a joint axis or should I create a hidden object and all the icons with a pin to that hidden object?

    Here are some screenshots. As I have the code if you touch the screen the icons are all aligned in the Y of the touch, so there are only 4 left in sight and they move but without acceleration, deceleration or anything.

  • Yes, I think it's more for people who are experts in Construct 3, I still have a long way to go :D

    I'll wait for Scirra to do a tutorial. Thanks a lot!

  • Hi!

    I want to show in an object Text the actual month using the new Date plug-in of beta R201 but when I take the expression, show me that error. I tried deleting TimeStamp but tell me Sintax error.

    Sorry but i´m beginner
