Is this possible?

I wanted to know if you could do this type of UI.

If anyone has ever used Groupon, you'll see that the UI is very clean. I wanted to know if I could do the same thing with swiping from left or right to get to another "scene".

I don't know if you could do this with SceneManager, by @atlim.

@ar2rsawseen, would this be possible?

If anyone could help with this that would be great.

Thanks

@ljp1203 in Mashballs you could change level packs with swipes, is this what you meant?

ljp1203 · January 2013

@ar2rsawseen yes like that. How would I do that?

Thanks.

Here is a quick example on how to do that

@ar2rsawseen

Everytime I try to move the picture to the left or right, it "twitches", snaps back to where it was, and then finally moves the picture off screen to the next image.

Is there a way to fix this? Also, is there a way to already have a picture there if the first image is pulled off screen, so its not a blank white screen and then the picture appears?

Thanks!

1) yes, you can fix that by dragging for example the image or other layer inside scene and not scene itself.

2) it is possible, but probably not so efficient (depends on what you have in those scenes). You could create new scene instances, add them to current scene and position outside the screen on the left and right, but I'd not recommend doing that.

If you need something that changes while showing next item, then you could use this one:

Here's more info:

It does not use multiple scene, but rather puts all items in one scene.

So it all depends on how you want to manage your memory/items

@ar2rsawseen, thanks for showing me the second example its a lot better and just what I was looking for.

One last question, how would I make it so that for the first EVER the app is opened on the device, it will overlay a picture showing what the controls are and what they do, like Groupon, nd then not show it again after the app is opened again? How would I do this with SceneManager?

Thanks!

You can check the game template's Setting class
https://github.com/ar2rsawseen/GameTemplate

Basically set default value inside Settings as true.

Inside scene check if value is true, show controls and then set it to false and save. Since settings save persistent data, all the other times your app will be open, the values will be false and settings won't show up

@ar2rsawseen: Doh!! Ninja'd again.

Do you have these forums on auto refresh to alert you when someone posts a question ?
