  • I'm not sure what you mean... you can set the layout size in layout properties, can't you?

  • It turns out this is caused by instance variables with a number at the beginning of the name ("20feet"). I've fixed this in the next build so instance variables with this name are not allowed, so the problem should not happen again.

  • Please see how to report bugs. We need more info like the browser/OS you're using, your .capx file, did you modify the exported HTML, etc...

  • Out of curiosity, why do you want this feature? HTML5 is going to replace Flash in the near future. It's like a new and better version of Flash.

  • I did some more research in to this. Most EXE wrappers around HTML that I tried (Adobe AIR, Titanium Desktop etc.) only use WebKit, which is Chrome's HTML layout engine, but is not the full browser. It looks like WebKit alone only provides a software rendered 2D canvas and no browser features like Audio, since it's just a layout engine. So it's no good at all for games. It looks like the link Kyatric posted uses OpenWebkitSharp which suffers the same problem.

    Awesomium on the other hand is a full-blown browser engine based off Chromium. I haven't got it working myself yet but I think it supports everything Chrome does: WebGL, audio, V8 javascript engine, and so on. So out of everything I've looked at only Awesomium looks like it will actually be useful. There may be a few other problems though - if it works off the file:/// protocol a lot of things aren't going to work, and it might need an internal HTTP server. However the HTML5 exporter has one already for previewing. So I think the best thing to do - in future, since we have a lot to do :P - is make an official Awesomium-based wrapper with a built in HTTP server and also the ability to package all the files in to a single .exe file. FYI Awesomium's license costs $2.9k once you've made $100k in profit, which I guess isn't a problem. Anyway, I guess I can say... on the todo list :P

  • 3. Pick the top/bottom most condition

    Isn't this already in C2?

  • kiyoshi, any method to wrap a HTML5 app in an EXE is likely to add a lot to the filesize, since it basically has to contain an entire browser.

    I fear this thread is going in circles - I've written a lot of discussion already on this thread so I'm not going to say any more, just that you should make sure you've read the entire thread.

    I've also always encouraged people to use EXE wrappers themselves, since it ought to be straightforward. As I said before other than Steam I can't see the point, but if you want to you can. I did also try contacting Awesomium myself in case it was straightforward to make an official wrapper, but they don't seem to have got back to me which is disappointing. So let me know if any of the other wrappers work well for you!

  • Whenever you use Save As Construct 2 will keep saving to that file from then on as well. So if you save to a single file from a project file Construct 2 will keep updating the single file after that.

    If you want to go back to the project, just save as a single file, close the project, then reopen the folder project.

  • That's fine of course, we're very happy for people to help us promote Construct 2!
