  • Not sure if it's fixed in a newer version, but Wertt22 may be referring to the fact that you can't have two scrollview objects overlapping even if the top one is disabled and they're on separate layers. It will always block the bottom one from working. I've just been setting their positions when they're enabled to get around this, but perhaps this is what is being referred to?

  • Great, so in the process of unsuccessfully attempting to copy timelines from one project to another, I must have borked the existing timelines I already had in the main project folder without realising it.

    Just went to work on them then, only to find that although they exist in the project view, when clicking on any timeline, the objects and paths have all been deleted.

    ...

    Now I really want to know how to copy timelines from one project (my old archived copies where they still exist) to another (my newest iteration with zero working timelines).

    Surely someone will have an answer to this?

  • Hi Everyone,

    I am working Javascript lessons to teach my self Javascript and to teach myself COnstruct 3 interaction with Javascript. Can check out first 5 lessons below.

    Hi —

    Thought I'd check these out, but the font is way too small on my laptop screen to be readable and browser zoom doesn't seem to work on the page at all.

    Seems like a nice idea though.

  • I've asked this a couple of times in the Discord chat with no luck, so thought I'd ask here.

    Recently, I created a side project to put together a bunch of timeline paths for menu control with the intention of importing them into my main project once done. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out a way to copy them over.

    I tried saving both versions as project folders and copying over the files from the timelines folder. While that copies over the timeline element itself, it doesn't bring over any paths that have been created.

    Is there a way to do this?

    Cheers

  • Not sure whether this should be filed under bugs or suggestions, but with really large JSON files, the auto-formatting in the editor creates a lot of lag that makes simple things such as highlighting sections really painful.

    I'm working with a 30,000 line JSON file and there's a 3-4 second lag whenever I want to highlight a section of text. I can tell it's the auto-formatting as when I copy in a large section from an external file, about half doesn't get auto-formatted (until being beautified) and this section can be selected with zero lag.

    I'm aware I can work in an external editor and reload if I'm using project saves (which I'm not), but this is more of a hassle I feel as it's extra steps again.

    Ideally, an option in the settings to disable auto-formatting would be handy here, unless there's already that option somewhere and I'm missing it.

  • Sounds like a good time to upgrade then XD

  • miguelromm The latest Construct update will stop ProUI from working unless you change the scripts type back to 'classic'.

    AekiroNot sure if you're aware of this already?

  • A simple work around until this issue is fixed is to download the file directly from Google Drive and then work on the project as a 'local file'.

  • Making good use of Mikal's Wind effect plugin here: kindeyegames.itch.io

  • I just have the same tilemaps on three separate layers. Two below the player for the majority of overlapping cases, and then a third above the player for any that need rendering above, like sections the player can go behind.

  • Mollekopp Yep, all done with tilemaps. Cheers
