How to make visible counter?

[The Thinker]

Hello all, I need to make visible counter object (not score object) in a room of my game to display numbers, how can I do?
I tried "make visible at start" option but it doesn't work.
I tried also when the screens starts make counter visible but nothing appears.

Thanks

It's rather strange that you can't get a visible counter - it should work exactly like the Score object if you've set the display to "Numbers" or "String" in the properties (and it defaults to Numbers anyway).

Since you mention "in a room of your game", I assume your game is scrolling, and that you want the counter to appear in a certain place, rather than visible all the time on the screen...

So... in order to make the counter behave that way, open the counter's runtime properties and enable "Follow the frame". It's disabled by default.

It should work fine

It doesn't work. It's illogical and it's weird. Maybe a bug? :/

Are you sure you have unticked the option "Display as background" in the counters properties?

Perhaps you should post an example file that we can check?
