  There's no need to save a .caproj to .capx files as backups manually if you enable automatic backup in Preferences.

  Even though the thread is from October, it's still pretty much the same - I don't see much point collecting lots of suggestions, because we still don't have time to implement most of them right now. If you have little suggestions those are easier to implement, you can just post them to the C2 general forum!

  I do occasionally do feature polls - there have been a few in the past - but they're generally a "what to work on next" type thing.

  This is currently by design - instance variables are stored in object instances, and if you have no instances (because you didn't place one), there are no instance variables to show or edit! I know it's a little confusing, but it's difficult to improve on. I'll try and think of a way. For the time being, just make sure you have at least one instance of every object type.

  Do you mean the wrap behavior? It is one of the simplest behaviors requiring almost no processing, so I doubt it's that. Construct 2 also does not load anything during the running of a layout, it loads everything it needs on startup, so it can't be anything to do with that either.

  xyboox, bjadams - have you tried using the fullscreen scale option I mentioned earlier in the thread? It should just downscale everything automatically. There shouldn't be any serious performance impact as long as it's hardware accelerated (as in, not PhoneGap).

  Closing as not an official plugin or behavior.

  NewSkool - Thanks! But again in that case you can just control+drag the text object, and change the color/properties of the new instance you just dragged. I agree it's a bug and should be fixed, it's just that's probably preferable to cloning anyway, since you don't end up with a second object type just for a text shadow.

  Try using the system 'Snapshot canvas' action, and then POST the image data to your server with the AJAX object.

  shaileshm - it's a known bug in r95 that has already been fixed in the latest beta release. Try r99.
