  • I have objects that represent letters, when I click on one of them add a letter to a string, when I click on a "delete" object I want it to delete the last value added to the string, how do I delete it?

    is similar to a virtual keyboard, if you have another way to do it will be of great help

  • If you want to remove last character from the string, you can do this:

    Set s to left(s, len(s)-1)

    I threw this together, you can expand on what to do with the array, but it is only currently going to store limited characters, I don't have it really set to a size that matters anyway, you can use it or not.

    The point in this project is creating your characters, adding them to a family, giving the user the ability to click on them, add them to your scene, click red X to delete last created character, which I think matches your request on how you do it.

    I am assuming a lot here, such as you have your image files already, you know your character list, your simply trying to create them on a click of existing like a virtual keyboard, then finally the trick of removing the last created character no matter which it was (aka family member)

    If I'm off base, let me know
