We have been pushing the Widget idea for a while and it is moving forward.
Thanks to users who are creating them, it is slowly starting to sink in. It takes time and patience.
Thanks for your...
Well, we credit you here for making this, Fimbul.
Appreciated.
Thanks. Good work.
I did a quick test where I played a video with the Active Direct Show and then recorded a demo file. There was also an AO with eight-direction movement.
When loading the demo and playing it from...
New Active Direct Show object!
That is just full of MMF2 goodness.
That kind of creative capability will have an impact. Maybe we will be able to capture video files from the frame more...
Stephan, you really have a grasp on the capabilities of Widgets.
Thanks for working with it to cover new territory.
Are you using build 248? Found over there --->
Also, for Clickteam to solve a problem, our programmers need to see the file in question. It is difficult to ascertain what the cause is without...
Nice job. Not a bad approach. It looks flexible, too.
Now, how about ghosts? ;)
In light of what Sphax said about compatibility, I think it is a good idea for users to support this extension by making some creative examples that not only show off its capabilities but push the...
Button Object:
Setting it to Radio Button and checking Transparent for the background causes a grayish doubling of the Radio and text to appear over the button when you run the application.
...
A good compromise here is if the debugger would just remember the size and position you dragged it to, and maybe also leave the tree view open to the way you had it last for that application.
That...
That might take a miracle, Zabooza. With no miracle, I bet it might be a LONG, long way off ... if ever.
It would be great to be able to create .swf files with MMF2, though ;)
Was the Active Button Widget useful to anyone? I don't know. I haven't compared it to the newer one above or had any feedback on it.
Active Button Widget
Spontaneous emergence? Magic? Who knows.
Well, as an aside, there is plenty of room for other custom movement widgets if anybody gets some ideas.
They would be handy for new users who often...
I don't know, maybe I was misunderstood.
It is more like the offset in the Active Picture where you can scroll the graphic in it in any direction.
So, if you have a perspective shader, you...
In the Shader Pack, (by Looki) under Morphing, there is a Perspective shader.
If it is possible, it would be great to have an offset parameter for x and y. What I am shooting for is a pseudo-3D...
The new qualifier icons and names are an improvement, IMHO.
I can understand why people who have old projects would complain, but now they are easily distinguishable from each other visually and...
Looks good so far.
It is a situation like this where it would be nice if Data Grid had the ability to color every other row, (or column, depending on use) for better readability. I don't recall it...
Could be a needed solution for all extension users.
I hope that developers will check into this.
I have brought this up in the past as a bug:
When you use Restrict Actions as a calculation, (which is rather handy to have) it does not repeat the actions every x.
So, if you set it to 1000,...
Jaffob, feel free to post a notice pointing to this thread in the Extension forum.
That would be a place that developers might more certainly notice it. Let them know about your request for...
AWK, are you using the latest build, 248 --->
It sounds like Yves should know about the PS 3.0 problem that some of us are having.
That new version works fine for me, Sphax. That's a great example and I bet it is going to be popular with game...
Yes, my card supports PS 3.0 as well.
You have my appreciation, that's for sure!
It really helps the Widget brigade I started ;)
Thanks so much for responding to my request. Nice!
This is another step forward and I am sure that users will appreciate having a custom movement that they can drop right into a game from their...
This is odd. I only see the head and shadow in the first box in that example. The colors do change via the dropdown.
There is no body and the two other boxes have nothing in them at all.
I...
Why not widgetize that for future reference, Steve? Use an AV for setting speed instead of the counter.
Maybe do both the original and suggested option by using a another AV for setting it?
It...
We have a mystery. The executables don't work either.
Maybe Yves could look into this sometime. It all depends on if I am the only one.
I don't know if this is specific to the HWA version, but ticking or unticking the anti-alias box in a String Object's properties has no effect.
Yeah, I have 9.0c. Thanks xyzzy.
Well, if anybody has the right specs and does not get the visuals on this, post about it. I am curious as to what might be wrong.
I have a GeForce 7300 LE. I might look it up and find out.
EDIT: Yeah, it supports 3.0. Odd that I get a black Active Object in the test application.
I think I am using the same Beta ;)
My video card is a couple of years old. When did PS 3 come out and what cards support it?
Not sure what's with the error. Could be machine specific.
I must not have PS 3.0 on my video card :( No results.
I wanted other users to check an error though. Algul has a Palette (ImageVar) property in the shader's properties.
Try loading an image...
Clone for applications in Dev is fantastic, especially with the new mobile capabilities. That is an extremely welcome new feature.
Q: How and were is the report that was mention generated? I...
My first suggestion for an improvement:
I'd like to see a better edge detection that mimics Photoshop more, if possible. The current one from Complex-Softwares only creates white lines on black...
Well, we are on the same tangent then. It is exciting stuff!
I am looking forward to seeing ideas pour in because we have seen only the tip of the iceberg so far.
I suggest that users check-out the new Drag and Drop movement. It might have a little more to it than you expect ;) Sweet!
Usage note: When you restrict the dragging of the object in the frame,...
The phone is ringing! Can you hear it?
Press 1 for your message! >1
Hello Widgeteer!
There is so much potential for creating widgets with HWA pixelshaders. I figured that the newest...
I thought I would create a thread for sharing practical requests, concepts and cool ideas for new shader presets.
It might spur the people who are writing them on to breaking through to new,...
That could quite literally rock! Aging hippies will get excited and want to trip-out on MMF.
I don't think I have seen this done in MMF before. Good job and thanks for sharing it. It is rather slow, but a nice proof of concept as far as doing it goes.
You think this can be done with...
Oh, the shake mode is good. Thanks.
I want to remind users that there are obvious places and variations and fixes on this Widget that can be done using what is already there.
* Zoom out from...
We need more posts from other users who have some IDEAS for Swidgets.
You don't have to post your idea, just let us know you have something in mind and would participate. Keep voting! ;)
...
This is good!
You are really tooling along on good extensions!
Thank you!
To other users:
There are plenty of places that you could add some new effects here, especially new versions of what I have already started, (zooming and such).
Improvements on the way it works...
Oh, thanks, Atom. I am thrilled to see this.
I was hoping somebody would take me up on that. That is because I would like to see users build on current widgets when possible.
I will check...
Nice going! This is a helpful and useful extension.
Thanks so much from myself and Clickteam for making this available to users. We appreciate your efforts.
Thank you so much, BREK. I'm glad you like the competition we had. I was very pleased with it, too.
It is public feedback, support, and enthusiasm from users that motivates the idea and gives it...
Thanks for posting that, DragonMC.
And thanks for your thoughts on the usefulness of Widgets, BREK.
There is certainly a future in them and as we continue to see new Widgets that will cement...
Suggestion:
Why not pack that up as a Widget?
Just use Alterable Values to turn on the turning and following so that they can be accessed from the main events.
Not all users realize that this is not an instant medium like a chat. A little patience goes a long way.
We recommend allowing 24 hours before attempting to bump a post. There are many users...
This extension received very little attention when it was posted. The intent was to get feedback, bug reports and suggestions.
The developer is still around but only comes by occasionally. I...
Thanks for creating a useful widget.
We appreciate the creativity and effort users put into creating these.
That's the kind of stuff I like to hear, Atom.
Yes, that is a good example of using tilesets and I can see the requirement. Wasn't there an extension along those lines by TwiTerror? If it...
Please do! :)
MMF2 could grow to make Widgets more viable and powerful, we have discussed that somewhat. At least the seeds are planted.
As for an extension maker, that's still rather fuzzy. I find it hard to...
While you folks making the RPG engine are at it, it would be good to see some brainstorming on imaginative ideas for ways to say, make MMF3 or 4 more RPG friendly.

New style ;)
Old eyes. Let's overlook it.

Just wanted you to know that Clickteam has all intentions of moving forward with MMF.
HWA and JAVA are the current projects that have been making good progress and we are sorry that the time...
I'm impressed.
Great job, cute game.
You can use MID$ to choose a set of characters anywhere in a string and remove/change them. So that would be a "subtract" thought it is a little more involved.
There is also Left$ and Right$...
The Active Object allows you to load graphics/animations as well.
It is a little more tricky in its current incarnation than doing it in the editor, but if you work with it, it should be able to...
Thanks for that info. Having MIDI control is useful for various purposes.
Are you considering doing the extension again someday? If so, would it be for public use or private?
Tbat's fine. I think any examples of doing this could have an impact. As I said, it has been discussed and it's just a matter of some exposure and use.
I am looking forward to seeing what you...
That is totally cool!
Good going. Keep the Spice of Widgets going. He who controls the Spice controls the Universe.
Even with the limitations we have currently, we have probably have a lot...
That is one of the problems with MIDI files for computers: consistency.

Well more OT ... but ...
Let me jump in on that question as to why. Of course, I agree that access to information is preferable and I support that.
MMF is maturing and becoming even more...
Though we are getting OT in this thread, I agree with your ideas and appreciate them.
All good ideas and suggestions for advancing the concept of Widgets should be added to the Widget forum, so...
How simple or complex a first attempt will be is up to users.
Some ideas:
- VCR Controls to play, stop, pause, etc.
- Some way to see what markers you have set and where in the time line.
...
Widgets are an important new phase and we still need to get them moving forward more, so I am glad you are now aware of them Angelfox.
Using them, commenting, participating, and creating them is...
Thanks for responding.
Simply put, it should allow for setting during runtime.
So, basically, you can create triggers while you watch your application run. This is much easier and more visual...
There is a widget that does that, too. See if it helps you at all:
Grid Based Widget
I was revisiting this object due to another post.
It is a nice step and can be useful in certain circumstances.
I was wondering if you would consider some potential additions to it in the...
Have you tried dragging the .cca files and dropping them into MMF2?
If that works you can save them as .mfa.
INI++ can save and load your Global Values in bulk, as well as other data.
INI++ is rather powerful and even though it looks complex, it is not hard to use. The documentation is good.
The Masked Edit Object was done by xtraverse. I don't think that developer is around anymore to contact for requests or fixes.
I haven't checked it, but do you mean the tab order is not working?...
I think there a nominal fee to get a replacement disc if you have the name and details that you purchased under and your serial number, DarkeSoft.
Is that correct, Jeff?
Global events work "on top" of your application. The events are available when any frame is running.
So: If you have a Global Event that says:
Global Value A = 10 --> Play music
Then no...
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "reduce". If you have data and need to store it, then its more about finding ways to do that. You are by no means restricted to MMF's built-in variables.

The library is a new feature that was introduced in MMF2. Due to time constraints, it has basic functionality and yet, is very useful and quite an improvement on the past.
It is obvious that we...
I am sorry to hear you are having problems, Johnny.
Clickteam has offered the HWA for testing purposes only. It has been released to the public as a Beta and, as we have stated frequently, it is...
Let's have a friendly, problem-solving challenge.
While we have a ways to go yet before an extension or MMF provides a sophisticated time line for synchronizing events, that has to start...
That works and allows for creating a frame over a video. Nice.
Now, the obvious question: If that works, then, technically, why?
What I am getting at is it seems that we might have something...
It is rather, pretty much, kinda' done. It might benefit from a public release candidate to check for any remaining bugs.
Other than that, it is an excellent and useful object with many features....

Hardware Acceleration is very useful for MMF2, Darkhog. That is why Clickteam is making it an integral part of the engine and free to current users when it is finished.
You can have a large...
That last contest was a blast. I like having my MMF Widgets folder full of useful tools and look forward to seeing more come along.
As a personal request: it would be nice to see someone with...
I truly appreciate the discussion and ideas here.
The contest was also a great success and it is really good to see people's eyes open on the idea of an often overlooked method of extensibility....
The win is in!
See the announcement posted in the Clickteam News section of the forum.
Very useful example!
I think some implementation of suvat should be considered for a future version of MMF, either as a movement, or as part of the built-in shooting of an object.
Maybe the Bullet Widget in the Widgets section of the forum might be apply to your needs.
It has an example where a tank shoots in 360-degrees at the mouse cursor.
Have users been testing it much?
I don't know what the author's plans are, but testing reports and suggesting might help spur it along.
Great object, and one hopes it will be published...
No need to apologize. The support forums are here to ask questions and obtain help.
We're glad you have it all straightened out.
You could do this with a little magic ... I mean work ;)
You can resize the control so only a sliver of the editbox shows, though that does not look perfect, it is a start.
Then you would get...
Do you have the Onu extension present in the loader?
Ah .... good to hear, Greyhill ;) I am loving this one.
Just think of the need to download the full pack as offset by the cost = free ;) Too much free is better than none or little at a cost.
We are rather proud of the free Bonus Packs and...
Ah, finally! This has always been a much-needed interface item for apps and even some games.
It works well so far, but I had a few points to make.
Would it be possible to be able to turn off...
OK, it has been a good while since I've used Projects. I'm not sure, but I think that might apply here.
Have you tried using a Project for your application? When you run your main frame, MMF...
This is a nice example of what Widgets can do.
Looking forward to any updates!
Thanks.
Well, here's hoping it can continue. From previous discussions, this extension was, at least, a first step in that kind of direction.
I don't feel comfortable with distributing the extension file...
Yeah Jeff, it is extremely easy and straightforward. That's what is so fantastic about MMF2.
I think we will keep moving in that direction for more and more tasks in the future, generally.
...
Users who see the potential of this and want to see it developed published eventually should support it by testing and suggesting. There is a lot that could happen if that comes about.
Let's hope...
I am glad to see such enthusiasm. Consider that fuel for the engine of a practical idea in progress.
If users see the potential of this once it became a reality, then it is obvious that MMF would...
Keep the ideas flowing. I think they get everyone thinking and then we start to make this more concrete.
Yes, a special widget feature might be good if it can be created without too much time and...
Good thinking and on spot.
Already the idea is articulated well and sounds compelling. I think that helps support a potentially useful addition.
Ideas start the process, obviously.
What does everyone think about the potential to use subapps as functional widgets?
The plus side is that all the objects would be in one package. The down side is that you have to use Global...
Great example of how useful angles can be on AOs.
Simple, easy to understand and it uses only one event!
Nice!
This, (and the other entries) make me glad we are having the Wild Widget Contest.
I won't be partial since I initiated the event, but this is certainly another great show of how useful and...
I also wasn't aware that "the random crash bug" as you put it, was a common, reported issue, overall. MMF2 has been known to be extremely stable.
I assume you are also using the latest build,...
That is far to vague and may be difficult to track down.
I have been using MMF2 since it was released, and on two different machines and have not had that problem with the exception of testing...
The reason for that is that Vitalize! is completely secure for safety.
Certain features in MMF2, including ActiveX, are not allowed simply because they can be threats to the end user.
Here is a little more info about it for you. Plus, it is good to know for an extension or widget that could make getting the value less complicated.
I imagine that getting the DirectX version...
The link to your picture is not working.
I am not sure if I have this right.
It sounds like you are saving a series of numbers as a registry value and that series is dynamic and grows.
It sounds like you need to keep a string of those...
The best way I could imagine doing that is to use the object's behavior and then create code using a value you spread across the objects.
So, in the Behavior you have, if Alterable Value = x, and...
The OP did note that developers can contact him via PM and I imagine that the private details might be elaborated on then.
I just wanted to point out that this thread should not be a game of...
Very useful and much appreciated.
It is always great to see users writing helpful articles for the benefit of others.
Thanks!
It works with my Wacom ArtIIZ tablet drivers so far.
Good idea. Thanks for making this.
We would all hope, here at Clickteam, that as many users as possible are putting the Java through its paces and testing extensively.
The more bug reports we get before the next beta, it stands to...
You are welcome!
Widgets are really still an very untapped and new territory. They have been overlooked and ignored too much. Now, we are seeing the challenge brew up some real creativity and...
Saving time and creating things that other's might need is always useful ;)
As soon as I am setup again, I will take a look at this one.
All Wild Widget entries are welcome AND appreciated!
I think just about anything useful for the Holiday Pack would be fine ;)
A warm welcome to our newest members.
Clickteam appreciates your involvement and support. Your extension work is a great benefit to MMF2 and the users. We hope to be as helpful and supportive as...

I tried generating a lot of names and I must say the randomness is excellent and the names, (say, first+last) are good in diverse ways.
Very nice. It's good for writers who want character names, too.
