Re: Mobile Ads with different screen resolutions

I've never worked with ads myself but I think you might be able to do something like a

Code: Select all

set the height of "banner" to the height of this card*.XX
set the width of "banner" to the width of this card *.xx
Not sure if this will work but I think it might be worth a try. Hope it helps!

Re: Any advice on planning the project?

Hey John, Not sure what kind of project you're working on but I've been working on a couple of games myself and the way I handled the planning was to work on my cards in reverse order. I wanted to work on the actual gameplay card first and then work my way backwards to score screens and then I went ...

I've set acceleratedRendering to true and the graphics that I am using have also been set to dynamic. I've been testing the a...

Re: Test Target for a Physical Device

Hi Simon,

Yea, I'm able to browse through my phone and I've been able to transfer pictures and whatnot pretty easily. Did adding drivers solve the problem for you?

Test Target for a Physical Device

Hi all, I was wondering what steps I need to take to get my Galaxy S3 to work as a testing device with LiveCode. I tried putting the phone on debug mode and then plugged it into my computer but for some reason LC won't seem to see it. Has anyone else had problems using physical devices to test? In c...

Hey everyone, I feel like I'm simply overlooking something here but I can't for the life of me figure out how to change the app icon for the app that I'm working on. I've been able to test my app on my Android phone but now I want to see how the app icon works from my home screen. Right now, it is j...

Resize Object from one card to another

Hi all, quick question about resizing my objects. I've got an image (say ID= 1) that I imported on card 1 and I have a button on card 2 that I set to have icon = 1 so that the button looks exactly like the image. The image was originally 1000x1000 pixels but I used a function to resize it to 200x200...

Re: Saving to /mnt/ directory

Hm, thanks for the posts guys but neither of these seemed to have solved my problem. Still can't get any txt files to write to my memory. I'm going to keep playing with it and report back if I make any progress.
