Data elements issue when exporting to Android

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!

  • Hi guys,

    I have included a .png file as a binary data element for a tileset that gets used by the active picture object. This works fine when loading on my PC coz' the actual path of the file is correct and exists in the location specified "C:\Elements\tileset.png"... But when building the .apk Android file it isn't building this in to the application. The last section of this PDF Please login to see this link. explains that you can use the path that is set in the "Data Elements" viewer and that will all get converted at runtime on Android or whatever you're exporting it on.

    I am setting the image by doing: start of frame: active picture object -> new picture ("C:\Elements\tileset.png")

    But to no avail, this whole thing seems a bit strange to me as it would make more sense if there was a local resources path that you can specify but has anyone got a clue as to why this image isn't getting loaded on my android phone?

    Thanks in advance!
