    Thank you for posting your details. On my Samsung Note3, the lag is the same as you've experienced.

    For sone weird reason, the menu is not really working well on my friend's iPhone (the LittleComposers.com site menu) so I have a hard time loading the file.

    But in a few days, all will be well (me thinks).

    I can't wait to see what the young ones will come up with? (the target audience for the Little Composers site is age 3 - 6ish).

  • Nice to see it finally complete!

    Addicting, as always. Each time you post a new version I lose a few minutes playing it, heh.

    It is even addicting for me. I still find myself clicking way more than I should just to see what pops up.

    Actually, that was just a little "side app". The real monster is here: http://littlecomposers.com:8080/apps/cccm/make-a-composition.html

    Let me know how many minutes this app will take from you? Just kidding

  • thank you blackhornet!

    I'm glad that you spotted that.

  • ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

  • kmsravindra just finished a project which was completed much faster than I had expected, for exactly the price I was quoted and the logic which kmsravindra implemented made my app better than I imagined.

    I will use kmsravindra again because he is the best of the best!

    Sincerely,

  • Hello,

    I am a music teacher / gfx designer and have just uploaded a new app I've made today!

    Little Composers Smart Notes

    The app is very simple to use and empowers anyone to make a composition.

    To compose a song, you simply click on the grey fields.

    Each time you click, a new note will be generated at random.

    Then you "play" the song and if you don't like some notes, click on them to get a new one.

    There is a little more to the app but all in all, our kids will go crazy tomorrow!! LOL

    The usual "Write" and "Save" button let you save an image of your composition to your computer.

    I'd be grateful if someone would test it and tell me which device you have used to open the URL

    http://littlecomposers.com:8080/apps/pre-piano/index.html

    I have a Samsung Note 3 and an old iPad (first generation which, unfortunately, doesn't really open HTML5 apps)

    Please post bellow or if you have privacy concerns then msg me which device you used and if it loaded and played alright .... or not?

    Construct 2 is AMAZING!

  • AWESOME! ... let me try that

    Thank you guys!

  • Hi,

    I am wondering about the delay when I click on the sprite which is supposed to change color on every touch/click.

    The sprite has 6 frames (0 - 5) and the event sheet looks like this:

    Touch > On touched Sprite | Sprite - Set animation frame to random(0,5)

    When I load run this app, it opens, showing the sprite on frame 0 (red)

    When I click on it nothing happens at first. After a while, the colors change but not predictably.

    What am I missing?

  • oops, there was one more reply (hidden on page 2)

    Hello granpa,

    I am very happy that you make time to play with your grandchild.

    We get the same kind of feedback which you just provided.

    Back in the days when I used a sketch drawing to teach little children it amazed me that they immediately connected. There was no "learning" involved. They just played right away.

    I am excited to see children who are not at the reading stage but already understand the concept of music.

    That is what keeps me going. (and C2 helps too)

  • Hi MrGoatsnake,

    If "the future" wasn't just around the corner, I would involve the keyboard much more but .... the other day I went to a large Canadian retailer and looked at some of the latest computers and they were almost all touch screen based.

    The advantage of touch screen is of corse multi touch which a mouse can't provide but I still give visitors that feature because I don't want to exclude those who can't afford the latest toys.

    I was not happy when Flash became the "bad child" and was ordered to stand in the corner and be ashamed of itself.

    Sure there were some weird noisy pages out there but for what I need it for, Flash was perfect (and still is).

    What I am envisioning for next year's upgrades is a lot more AI.

    C2 includes some sample apps which accept speech, camera etc....

    I wish it was 2016!

  • UPDATE!

    What a great community C2 has! I got four quality replies, including a late submission posted after this update/notice and have contacted them all.

    The post bellow has generated some amazing talent.

    I have everything and everyone I need now and we are already working on some very exciting stuff.

    I am very excited to show the fruits of our labour soon and even more excited to provide amazing educational apps for creative children.

    // Original post bellow

    Hi,

    after evaluating C2 for a few days, I have decided to stop developing Flash apps and move everything to C2 to produce HTML5 based learning apps for LittleComposers.com

    I spend most of my time recording/editing audio or working on new YouTube videos and therefore would be open to taking on a few freelance programmers who know how to optimize the logic part of the apps.

    If you have a C2 license and an interest in working on children's programs please get in touch with me.

    You can do this ether at the http://LittleComposers.com site via the contact form or private msg me.

    If you have questions, and I assume you do, please post them bellow.

    This is a low key gig, no stress, no pressure .... just some creative fun that pays some money via PayPal.

    Please think it over and if you want to give it a try, then we should talk about it.

    Cheers,

    V

    Thank you for letting me know about the screenshot scenario.

    Now I understand why the included sample file "enables" the save button after a screenshot has actually been taken.

    I am re-writing the app completely and will implement that fix next week. Thanks - V
