Object functions

Post by Whytey » Sat Jan 25, 2014 6:05 pm

Hi all,

I had another idea for an app (they are coming thick and fast lol!) but just going to need some help to get me started as I have no idea how to go about this....

So if I have an object, say a circle would it be possible using livecode to use finger dragging to stretch one of the corners of the circle out as far as I drag my finger? Are there any other functions/code I can use to modify this circle, like pinch parts of it to make it look 3d or tap it to make the circle become indented? I want it to stay in the same location just have all these ways to manipulate the object?

Does that make sense? I know I struggle with phrasing my questions sometimes (that's for you Klaus! :wink: )

Look forward to hearing from you!

Thanks!

Whytey :mrgreen:

Hi.

I don't do mobile, but since these actions are straightforward with the mouse, I cannot imagine they could be an issue with a finger. Under script control, of course, anything is possible.
