How do I count each objects on the layout...

How do I count how many objects are appear in the layout?

I also use an action to create 10 same sprite objects with different size.

So how can I count objects with more condition like count number of object that only has width greater than 250pixels. (The other objects created with less than 250pixels don't count.)

Same sprites? use the pick all event. System, pick all.

So if you had a sprite named box you create the even under system - pick all.

Object (pick the box)

expression would be self.width

comparison > (greater than)

value = 250

Thank you so much!! I have never known that it could be this simple to pick something with special property.

By the way, is it a way to know how many objects we have picked?

I'm struggling with having Text to show how many '250<obj' is on the screen. I've used trigger add+1 to global variable when true and -1 when destroyed but it was not functioning individually.

Create a variable to store the numbers (lets call it count)

Then do a for event, for each sprite make the action add 1 to count

Life saving! "For each" does the trick.

Thanks.

There is also mysprite.count that does that.

Thanks for another the suggestion.

I've changed to something like mysprite.PickedCount and it woks best for me.
