This sounds like me and HyperCard in the early years (older than 9).

Thank you, Andy. Those maze game concepts are helpful in understanding the constraints of keeping the ball inside its boundaries. Navigation is still manually left up to the player. I want the computer to be my "player", and to solve the maze. Making some progress toward that end, I think.

Here is a stack with functional UP DOWN LEFT RIGHT buttons. I haven't tackled the auto solve yet.

That stack gives me some ideas, but unfortunately the stack doesn't work, at least in 8.1.2.

Here's a file we can play with using a super simple maze. I'll make more complex ones to test any offered solutions. Put your code in the "Auto Solve" button.

Yes, I'm thinking of something like the maps at the mall. You are here, and if I want to go to a specific store, what is my best route to go there? All lines, boxes, etc. are obstacles. So after bouncing off of everything and figuring out the many optional paths, I want to see which path is shorter.

I was wondering if anyone has done this already, or would like to "play" for a bit. If I have a maze (like a company cubicle farm) and I know that Sarah sits in a cube waaay over there, behind the potted tree, and I have a known "you are here" arrow showing the starting point (which can be moved any...

Could it be that the drag speed varies depending on the angle?

The announcement for 8.0 DP1 said there are missing properties as this is an early alpha release.

Well, at least it has been proven that LiveCode apps can run on a smart watch. It would be awesome to have official support from RR.

See above, LC app on a pre-android-wear watch.

And please don't start a "A is better than B" war, mikeal, thanks!

Could you please also include "Android Wear" in the main topic?

I got this Android SmartWatch for Christmas, and it runs 4.4 kitkat.

Interesting, but way to complex for me to follow. I wonder if a simpler nesting algorithm exists.

I've created a basic drawing board (pun) with the ability to manually drag pieces around. If I can't use logic to smartly lay out the pieces, at least I can see the options. I want the pieces to stay inside the sheet, and not overlap any other pieces. Can I lock them to a grid? PlyCut.zip -- Amigatech

With linear shapes, I always get the best use of the sub-shapes. I am sure this will work in 2-D, though I bet the task is considerably larger. Might I suggest that you try the 1-D problem first? If you get that down, move on to 2-D. In other words, take, say, a group of 3,4,6,and 8 foot boards, an...
