panel magnetc like scratch - 10/10/21 00:45

Hi,

Sorry about my English.

I would like to know if 3dgs A8 is possible, and if anyone knows how to make panels that work like scratch, paste with magnetic, and resize as you add items.

The scratch is a block language https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/editor/?tutorial=getStarted

if anyone has an example of a panel that you can move with the mouse and paste, magnetic type in other panels, that when you move the first one will move together I appreciate it.

Best regards,

Marcio

I think most things are possible, but they will require some fancy programming. It's not something built in to the engine at all.

Off the top of my head, you would have to create some kind of function that checks the position of the panel you are moving, compared to any other panel. If it gets within the snapping range of any other panel, then it would automatically position itself in the right spot.

Definitely possible to do. But it would take time and strong knowledge of Lite-c to make it work.

Thank you for reply.

I'm thinking instead of 2d graphics, use 3d models for ease, pointing vertex to fit.

Or using 2d graphics might be easier, what do you think?

taking advantage,

In the past there was a wiki on the 3d game studio site with some programs, among them there was a good program to create bitmap fonts.

Does anyone there remember his name or recommend someone else to create bitmap fonts compatible with 3D Studio? I'm going to use them on panels because I can use something cooler than true type fonts

Bitmap font have an advantage in that they will automatically scale to the scale of the panel. Truetype fonts will not scale automatically.

However, bitmap fonts have some limits. You cannot do word wrap with bitmap fonts. So you have to consider these factors when deciding what to use.

Thanks for answering.

I already weighed that, the texts where I intend to use the bitmap will be fixed.
There will be no need to break a line with broken words.
If anyone remembers the program to create the bitmap compatible with the 3DGS format I would appreciate it, because drawing in GIMP will be much more work.

Because I can put the text directly on the textures, but then each object would have to have its own texture instead of putting the text attached.

Best regards,

Marcio

I have made a bitmap text in Photoshop. Yes, it is a pain.
