Gideros Update 2015.12

keszegh · January 2016

thanks. is there an issue already on github for this or should i make one?

ar2rsawseen · January 2016

I think I still did not close the touch feature request/issue, so that will do

totebo · January 2016

Guys, any idea why AlertDialog is not working on iOS? Is it possible to get it to work by changing the files somehow?

Couldn't find it as an issue on Github so added this: https://github.com/gideros/gideros/issues/209

SinisterSoft · January 2016

I thought that was fixed in the latest version?

keszegh · January 2016

@ar2rsawseen, finally i tested the new version with my android tablet pen too. the problem is the same, the pressure is either 0 or 1, nothing inbetween.

totebo · January 2016

@sinistersoft, yeah me too, but after testing it I noticed the popup is still not showing. It works in 2015-09.

hgy29 · January 2016

@totebo: I just had a try and it works for me with Gideros 2015.12 (iPhone6/iOS9.2)

totebo · January 2016

Whoa @hgy29, I have to try it again! Will report back.

SinisterSoft · January 2016

Do a full export - rather than just assets.

totebo · January 2016

EDIT: @sinistersoft, it works on the player, but not for the exported project (still). I do a completely clean install to an empty directory. Gah!

EDIT2: Aha! I delayed the call to AlertDialog by one frame and then it works! When I try to show the popup immediately on startup nothing happens.

Is there any estimates when it will be possible to run gideros html5 apps in firefox?

ar2rsawseen · February 2016

My apps seem to run ok in Firefox, do you have any specific problems?

unlying · February 2016

@ar2raswseen Hm. It's working now. But it doesn't at December.

Strange. I never update it. May be smth was changed in Firefox with updates...

hgy29 · February 2016

HTML5 template has been fixed regarding this in december/january, in that sense that a failure to use storage is no longer fatal

Hi @hgy29, is path2d already handling TTFonts?

thanks

hgy29 · February 2016

Yes and no

I wanted to use Path2D for generic font rendering (i.e. to make TTFont use Path2D), but it came out that there is no performance gain. Obviously freetype rasterizer is already very efficient.
But you can set the shape of a Path2D from a TTFont glyph, with Path2D:setFontPath(font, character) function

vitalitymobile · February 2016

Hi @hgy29, can we draw a circle from path2d using CubicTo or QuadTo? Or should we have arc function?

hgy29 · February 2016

You should use ArcTo, 'A' function code as per SVG spec. QuadTo won't produce a circle, CubicTo may produce something that look like a circle, but since ArcTo is designed for circle arcs, better use it!

totebo · February 2016

Would a circle be drawn more efficiently with Path2D or Shape? I suppose a square would be more efficient as a Shape, but since a circle using Shape would have a lot of poly's, I wonder if Path2D would do it the same way or not.

hgy29 · February 2016

Path2D should be more efficient for circles than Shape, but that's yet to prove... Path2D primitive is actually a quadratic curve. Cubics are subdivided in several quadratics, and circles are probably made from cubics... So all in all a lot of subdivisions too...

totebo · February 2016

Thanks! A question regarding Path2D, let's make a separate thread: http://giderosmobile.com/forum/discussion/6280/path2d-getwidth-property

vitalitymobile · February 2016

So @hgy29, would you please give simple code for draw circle using Path2d? i can not see ArcTo in document yet...

hgy29 · February 2016

@vitalitymobile, you may find this useful: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5737975/circle-drawing-with-svgs-arc-path
to use with Path2D:setSvgPath() or simply separate commands and coords from SVG string manually and use setPath()

vitalitymobile · February 2016

OK i got it now:

M cx cy
m -r, 0
a r,r 0 1,0 (r * 2),0
a r,r 0 1,0 -(r * 2),0

 
--Circle
local p=Path2D.new()
 
local circle="M 100  100 m -75  0 a 75 75 0 1 0 150 0 a 75 75 0 1 0 -150 0"
p=Path2D.new()
p:setSvgPath(circle) --Set the path from a SVG path description
p:setLineThickness(5) -- Outline width
p:setFillColor(0xFFFF80,0.7) --Fill color
p:setLineColor(0x404000) --Line color
 
stage:addChild(p)

And note for M and m params after google:

An uppercase M here indicates absolute coordinates will follow, while a lowercase m indicates relative coordinates.

totebo · February 2016

I'm starting to feel a helper class for Path2D could be cool, to abstract creation of common shapes.

kussakov · February 2016

Great update! Thanks guys!

Some issue with pluggin frameworks included in the mac distribution (e.g GooglMobileAds):
The symbolic links in the DMG are replaced with text files with the link path.
As if something was zipped with a product that does not understand symbolic links.

hasanalperen · February 2016

Thanks!

@kussakov I have the same issue for Ads Interface Plugin(GoogleMobileAds). The app crashes because of this issue. I received this message. 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '*** setObjectForKey: object cannot be nil (key: admob)'

Do you have any recommendation to solve it?

ar2rsawseen · February 2016

It sometimes happens, because frameworks go through git probably.

You would need to download the GoogleMobileAds framework on your own from google and replace the existing one

hasanalperen · February 2016

Thanks Arturs but I still have the same problem. I also tried Chartboost, the app crashes.

keszegh · February 2016

@hgy29, to be able to quickly import svg meshes as they look in inkscape, the join, cap and miterlimit parameters of the path should be possible to set.
otherwise it looks great.
(other todos are texture and antialias even if there is no border set)
