Thanks a lot Fib! Also cool to hear that it's useful to you.

I'm not sure I fully understand your suggestion, I think you are on Discord as well, might be easier to chat there. :)

The events look correct to me as you can use the layer index to reference the layer. To me it looks like the issue is:

the instance is invisible and setting the layer to visible does not set any instance on it to visible, layer and instance visibility is separate.

To fix it make sure you set both the instance and the layer visible, or set the instance to visible and only toggle the layers visibility (or vice versa).

These free addons are very useful and I use them in most, if not all, projects:
1. Better Input Manager https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/1050/better-input-manager
2. FSM https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/1089/fsm
3. Trail Renderer https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/531/trail-renderer
4. Animate Text https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/324/animate-text
5. Utils https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/1073/utils
There are some awesome more niche ones too, like Mikals 3d stuff and some effects (i.e. I also have more than 20 effects on the addon exchange ;) https://www.construct.net/en/users/367816/fedca/addons). But I tried to list the more general useful ones.

> FWIW I submitted a WebView2 suggestion to fix that. I think a relatively small addition to WebView2 could potentially allow full file system access without prompts using the existing browser File System Access API from JavaScript.

Ashley Do you know if there has been any progress with this issue? We were planning to use WebView2+FileSystem in our next project, but that picker dialogue is a deal breaker.

Also, it will be impossible to set up Steam Cloud sync if players are able to pick the location of save files.

Scirra released this addon for webView2, this solves most file system issues. construct.net/en/make-games/addons/1104/file-webview2

It would theoretically be possible, but its not really something I am interested in doing myself at the moment.

Hey, so C3 only redraws anything if there is any movement on screen, so I guess you were just using it on a static layout.

We can mark effects as animated, which will force a redraw every tick if they are on screen even if nothing else moves. I made this change to the effect, so the newest version should show the animation on a static screen as well.

1. I wish there was a way to jump to the event that handles the nodes logic and jump to the node from the event. Sadly not really possible with it using string tags though.

This would make it much better to use as right now it always requires searching in two places.

2. Also I would love to have the conditions slightly changes to:
- "on node enter"
- "on node exit"
- "on any node change"[/li
- "compare current node"
- "compare previous node"
And get the expression:
- "GetPreviousNodeTag/Index"
3. To read the Flowchart at a glance I wish the name/tag of the node would be larger and in the header, this would make searching and reading the tree much easier as right now they are not really discernible.

(A color settings for the node header would be cool too, similar how we can color code comments and tabs, but that would be more of a cherry on top)

4. output cell should not be resizable, as there cannot be any content wider than the circle.

Looking forward to experiment more with it to figure out what new workflows this enables, thank you for this cool new feature Diego!

first impressions of stuff I'd like to see added are:

- linking back to parent

- general ux/ui improvements and polish

I released a few new effects:

BOKEH

https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/1182/bokeh

Buttery Bokeh blur, keep samples low otherwise performance cost can get heavy.

Gradient Map

https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/1189/gradient-map

Remap the colors to a three color gradient.

Overlay Color

https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/1191/overlay-color

add a color with overlay blending.
