CreateList Modifying Items.

It says in the CreateList description: "The disadvantage is that adding or removing items may only be done via InsertItem() and RemoveItem(). You must not add or remove items from optimized lists by modifying the table directly. It's necessary to use the functions mentioned above. " But is...

Re: Some Questions.

Yes, this was it, thanks!

Couldn't figure out the name, although funnily, I did check the forum with OnError, but not the Hollywood manual.

Re: Some Questions.

I guess by now this OnError has happened, what was the implementation? Im recalling Hollywood had some command to disable crashing on error and instead just continue, but I dont remember this commands name as I by defailt would not use it. Now, however, I exceptionally have one line where I want to ...

No display modes found (should be monitor 1)

Saving Functions to JSON-file, what happens?

I just noticed I had used in some cases something like: Creature = {X=10, Y=10} Function Creature.Move() Creature.X = Creature.X + 1 Creature.Y = Creature.Y + 1 EndFunction Function Creature:Bark() Debugprint("Wof!") EndFunction When I save this as JSON file, and then load it later, will b...

Re: Hollywood programming in Linux?

Um, You do know that Hollywood is available in native builds for all kinds of Linux platforms? (x86, x64, arm and even PPC). No need to use Windows emulators, just use the real thing (tm) ;) Oh. Must have been somehow thinking Designer in my head thinking it is only available to Amiga and PC, altho...

Hollywood programming in Linux?

I am thinking of making one laptop of mine into a Linux machine. But I wonder how could I use it to program with Hollywood. Anyone here have tips to give? Like, is it called Wine? sound like you could use Linux to run windows software, would that include Hollywood? Or could you run something like Am...

Easing commands

I wonder if it would make sense to have easing commands for Hollywood as standard. I have done my own easing functions, and Allanon has his easing function collection too, but they are so commong thing to use nowadays in games, and I guess you could maybe make them more efficient than my own version...

Does MakeButton() have to return ID as a last thing?

Is there any technical reason that MakeButton Returns the ID as a last thing, as in: ID = MakeButton(NIL, X, Y...) Doesnt it anyway reserve the memoryspace as a first thing, hence it could return it as a first thing too? My question is related to the situation where I would want to use this returned...
