String object bug

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

  • I just did some tests using build R295.10 and can say that it doesn't work using the String object, but it does using the Formatted string object. For the Static text object it displays in the game just not the editor.

  • Thanks for the clarification. I just checked and the HWA portion of the manual does indeed say:

    Limitations in Direct 3D mode

    The Direct3D mode is a very specialized mode, unlike the standard software mode. Everything doesn't work with it.

    Options that don't work
    * Frame properties : "Grab desktop" and "Keep display from previous frame" don't work.
    * Edit box object / Button object : the "Transparent" option doesn't work.
    * XOR, AND, OR ink effects : they are not supported in HWA.
    * The underline & strike-out font attributes are not supported in HWA.

    It might be worth renaming adding "(Standard display only)" to the end of the properties in the string.

    It might also be worth considering renaming 'Standard' to 'Software' as Direct3D is now the default.
