It seems to assign the name of the file to the name of the stack, when you choose "Save as..." It's really confusing. I don't want Fun App 2.0 to contain a stack called Fun App 1.0, which is what I have now. This is really confusing when I also have a file named Fun App 1.0 in the same folder. Is th...

I'm at a loss trying to understand the file structure. When I rename a stack by choosing "Save as..." it creates a new file as far as the OS goes, but when I open it, the name of the stack is the original name. If I want to save as an application, it insists on including the original stack as a stac...

It works as a button icon now. I'm not sure why the extra steps are necessary, but at least there's a method...

Thanks for the help.

For me, that works for the image, but not when using the image as a button icon. It's still white where it should be transparent. Hm....

That's weird. I'm running Revolution 3.5 on Mac OS 10.5.8

Hello. This rev stack contains a .png image that has a trnasparent background (according to GraphicConverter). The transparent background is opaque white on the card. I've noticed that if I go into "Blend" and choose transparent, that it works. But it's buggy in certain situations, such as unlock sc...

I've gone ahead and started using icons this way. Now the problem is the Revolution doesn't seem to recognize transparent areas in a png image. I displays the areas between the actual image and the sides of the rect as white, no matter what I do. Does Revolution recognize transparency?

Hi. That can't be right, because the imported icons aren't listed in the image library. They are only presented when I select an icon for a button using the object inspector. It seems cleaner to do it that way. I don't want random images that will never be displayed, except as button icons, scattere...

I converted a Hypercard stack to a Revolution stack, and all the icons came along. Yay. I see them when I select an icon for a button, using the inspector. I can uset the "set icon of btn..." command to disaply them. The icons are not part of the image library, which is empty. In trying to add icons...

Hi. I appreciate the stack, and comments. Thank you.

Hm. The various guides say image objects are bitmapped. I'm confused.

You mean put the field inside the image area? Would I then group the two objects?

Part of the reason for using vector graphics is to have the playing change size if the window is resized. Scale to fit. Is that possible if the part os the card are displayed with a font and set size?

I want to make a set of playing cards. So, I figured I'd make an image area the size of the card, and fill it with card images. Namely, suit and rank. I can't see a paint tool that allows me to type text as paint, as in the number "2".
