  • Emitter question for Tom or Alan

    Win7/pI 3.0.4.3/emitter library 12_01.il3

    I have added HUD Air 2 Air 2 to my stage (720 x 480) and reduced the size to fit on my stage. The number portion of the two emitters “Angle” and “Alt” continue to scroll past the top of the emitter and do not disappear until they scroll off the top of the stage. In other words, how can I get them to stay contained within their respective green boxes. Hope that is clear. Thank you.

    How did you reduce the size to fit your project? If you used the “zoom” parameter it should work fine. If you used “size” that’s the mistake. Size just changes the size of particles, while “zoom” changes size and velocity. Zoom is equivalent to “scale” in most apps, while “size” is just particle size.

    Hope that helps.

    Alan.

    Boy! Talk about quick response time…I am impressed. You guessed correct I used the size parameter and the zoom works much better. Thanks again.
