Fun DropTool
I've just had a first attempt at creating a custom control with the rather nicely engineered DropTools palette from Sons of Thunder. It's a scalable android logo constructed from LC graphic objects - just a bit of fun!

You can get it here if you're interested; http://mobgui.com/downloads/**Android.ziphttp://mobgui.com/downloads/Android.zip Nice graphic! However, there must be a problem with how Android renders LC graphic objects because the rounded corners don't maintain the same radius as in the IDE. Also in the Android emulator, Mr. Android loses his head (literally). I'll send you an off-list screenshot. Thanks for making this. ~Roger ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

I'm not having any trouble with the head resizing, btw. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Bummer! - I get the same as Roger - an angry looking droid with big eyebrows, and a missing head! (And the odd looking radius ends) I'm set at platform 2.2 API level 8 - is this still the current setup? Just to rub salt in the wound, it renders perfectly on iOS!! On 14/07/2011 18:19, J.

Re: Fun DropTool
I've discovered that the head ( an oval graphic with startAngle = 0 and arcAngle = 180 ) gets displayed upside down on my android simulator, so the head is merging in with the body. If I change the startAngle to 180 then the effect is reversed: no head in the IDE, but I can see it in the simulator. I wonder what's different in Jacque's setup that it works - Any clues, Jacque?? I'll file a bug report.

My off-list screenshot was of platform 2.3.1 API level 9 (I think). So, the result was the same. That salt burns. Where's quality assurance when you need 'em? ;) ~Roger ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
