Hello!

Does anyone have any idea how I could make the playfield scroll by clicking and dragging? I'd prefer to do it without using any extensions.

+ User clicks mouse button
-> Set XClick to XMouse
-> Set YClick to YMouse

+ Repeat while mouse button is down
-> Center display at X: ((X Left Frame+X Right Frame)/2)+(XClick-XMouse)
-> Center display at Y: ((Y Top Frame+Y Bottom Frame)/2)+(YClick-YMouse)

Thanks Sketchy!

Hmm I just tried this, it works (kind of). I can't quite explain what is actually happening because I'm not sure, it just doesn't respond to the clicking at dragging sometimes.

Do you know what I've done wrong?

I would have done it with an active (since i'm "oldschool" and in knp'/tgf those events don't exist), but this a better way.

What the fuck dude? I checked your site and i'm impressed. Seriously, where did you found the time and effort? Maybe you have done them for your whole life if you are as old as the man in your avatar ..

Thanks, and the avatar is me. My hair is now twice as long now.

I started in 2008 with the website, but collecting examples since 1999. Hope you find the site useful.

Just used an example you had archived on your site this past weekend, Marv.

Thanks for providing such an excellent resource.

Marv! You need to upload a new photo right now! Exactly the same as your old one but with your new hair! That would be amazing. You still got that grey top?

I already had your website in my favourites, Marv! I completely forgot to look there.

Hmm, the same thing is happening when I use the method from the example on your website. I think it might have something to do with how I've set up the frame properties, maybe. This is probably a bit of a newb question, but can someone explain what 'Virtual' Height/Width is?

Virtual Width and Virtual Height are the size of the area that the camera can show at runtime. This can be both bigger or smaller than the frame's actual width and height, and mainly exists so that you can take advantage of "Upon Entering/Exiting the Frame" without scrolling having to stop there (at least that's all I can think of). If you make that value higher than the actual dimensions of the frame, then the camera will be able to show things in that outside area that is usually gray in the frame editor, and if it is smaller, then you will not be able to show all the frame at runtime.

Also, setting either one to -1 will allows scrolling into infinity in that direction. Only right and downwards though. All left and upward scrolling always stops at 0.

Thanks guys. I'm still struggling to get this working, it doesn't matter if I use Sketchy's technique or the method from the tutorial on Marv's website, I get the same results. It's hard to explain what is happening, so I uploaded my test file. If someone could have a look at it for me I would be extremely greatful!

I read somewhere that you have to read something 3 times for it to sink in.

But yeah, as twitchy as always. No idea why it posted it 3 times. That seems to happen to me quite regularly. And where is my photo!

If I do that I will be the talk of the village for at least a day.

My example is set up according to frame size I think.
