When you share a project through email, links will last 365 days (1 year) rather than 7 days. Sometimes it takes me a little over that time to get to a project that you guys send us, and they're always expiring on me. I'm sure that you guys have this issue too... So I made it longer!
The email will still say 7 days until the next update, but it will actually stick around for 365 days.
I have finally finished the tool to clean up bloated projects. We're initially going to add a button to do this in the project options, and we'll do it automatically when we see that its safe to do so. For now, anyone that wants their project cleaned up, can send the project to contact@hyperpad.com and I'll email you back your cleaned project.
Guys, we know! We needed this feature yesterday. All I can say right now is soon.
@bosswave said in Set and return absolute position of music tracks:
n a music track’s absolute position from the Play Music behavior?
Mostly, I believe this would be great for slo-mo segments. I know Set Tim
Get Music settings was a bug. Fixed in the latest update that is being released soon!
Right now, unfortunately, is @Jack8680 way of doing it. I'll add number of decimal places to Round number behaviour.
Empty objects that are invisible are better, however, empty objects that are visible are worse for performance than a graphic.
It got removed because people kept “losing” their behaviours. But yes grouping it in this way is cool. What we want to do is create little functions that behave like JavaScript promises. Where you create a standalone function where it has a “resolve” behaviour to output when its done. And then make these functions shareable so you can import them across projects and send them to people.
A few things.
@Deeeds don't be disrespectful. I sent you a private message before about this. As you can see, everyone is just trying to help and you don't need to shoot them down and berate them. You're coming off as very aggressive and rude.
At this point, our users are way better at using hyperPad than we are and in this public forum, we rely on their help to answer simple questions. Like @Murtaza said, a lot of "bugs" are just user error so it makes sense to troubleshoot the issue with others before myself or @Murtaza can come in and declare it to be a bug.
Don't make assumptions about years of development when just coming into the platform. If you don't like something, let us know and we can have a public discussion of how things can work. Some things may look easy to add, but as most software developers know, NOTHING is ever that easy.
Somethings are indeed broken. We don't know about all of the broken things. When dealing with software with 1000+ features, its easy to forget about certain items and miss some things. We rely on user feedback to find these issues. e.g. I constantly forget about some of the behaviours you guys ask about... because we have so much functionality!
Everyone uses hyperPad differently, so we have to cater to how the majority uses hyperPad and not just you. appreciate our limitations and understand that we can't always cater to an individuals needs.
In conclusion, relax. We're working on it.
P.S, I can't re-create your issue... so I declare it not a bug. If you can create a little sample project with as few behaviours as possible, either I or someone on the forum can help troubleshoot it. like @Aidan-Oxley said, its not too hard to share a link onto the forum.
P.P.S Its really hard to find your issues / feature requests with a huge wall of text. Keep it short and to the point, and you're more likely to hear a quicker response.
@Dave007 ASAP! There are a bunch of bugs that were brought up on the discord server that we're going through as well
@TutorialDoctor this is intentional. This is because hyperPad doesn't have a soft body physics engine i.e malleable shapes.
What is actually happening when you scale an object is that it will destroy the body and re-creates it when its done scaling.
When you destroy a body, the joints go with it :(
@Dave007 we will be submitting a hotfix update as soon as possible.

@Kamdroid No because there are still some experimental things that some of the key fixes depend on. Unfortunately, needs to be part of the same build :(
@SplitMindGaming we didn't change anything with set Flip, but we did make changes to Animate behaviour. Could that be it?
@RobinsonX yes. How it works is you create a “render texture” behaviour. And a draw behaviour where you can draw primitive shapes or stamp an image from a load image behaviour. Then there is an option to choose from a list of effects (shaders)
Render texture can also be chained with other render textures so you can cascade effects
@Kamdroid yes. We can add string manipulation behaviours not in this beta but the next one sure.
