And the next version (v1.57) is out. With even more GUI elements. Here is the list of changes:


New functionalities

* GUI!!! Implemented via custom Objects and the new ftGuiMng manager class! Have fun!!!

Fixes

* Fixed resizing arrays inside ftObject._Init and ftTileMap.Remove. Causes a compile bug in Android.
* Fixed ftEngine.New() in the creation of the default layer and scene which could cause a crash when removed.
* Fixed ftLayer.Remove() to take care of assigned layer transitions.
* Fixed Index of array error under GLFW3 and possible all C++ targets.


New example

* Canvas/VirtualResolution/VirtualResolution.monkey
* Input/TouchInput/DragNDrop/DragNDrop.monkey
* Gui/Joysticks/Joysticks.monkey
* Gui/Buttons/Buttons.monkey
* Gui/Checkbox/Checkbox.monkey

Hi Mike, an impressive list of examples, might have a play later. [Edit]

Also, I bought a copy of your Monkey book - its a good read.

Thanks man, I appreciate that. yes, typo it was. About the book, I need to republish the errata I have collected so far. Give me a few days.

FYI, yesterday I finished porting fE to mojo2. Now I am adding new stuff. Tommorow I hopefully find time to finalize the outlining for my 2nd book.

Hey Mike, great stuff! Good luck with your next book, and I'm impressed you've also created your own framework. I'm not sure many folk appreciate the effort required to produce type specific coding manuals - I've some experience creating extensive docs/operation manuals for certain some classified material in the past, your turn of phrase makes it easy to learn.

Looking forward to your errata for the first one ;)
