Re: Google Play Console: new requirements

Bongiorno trevix,

I already mentioned this on the LC mailing list, but no reaction from the mothership so far.
But I'm sure they will (HAVE TO) publish a new version in the near future. :-)

Re: cutting irregular pieces from image for puzzle game

Craig,

no need to ZIP images, just attach them to your posting!
This eliminates the need to download and unzip them before being able to see them.

Re: Dumb Question -- Copying/Moving substack between stack files

Yes, setting the mainstack to another stack will definitively MOVE that substack, see screenshot.
