Bugfixes and Moving Multiple Boxes


This is a minor update the fixes a few bugs and adds the ability to move multiple selected boxes.

Bug fixes include fixing Unicode support for text boxes, properly escaping backslashes and a few related loading issues.

There’s still the bug of saving a file with Unicode text in the path name. This is a bug within Lua itself and will require me to write a custom file load function.

Next on the list is to add Copy/Cut/Paste features but the Unicode input bug was a nasty enough bug that I wanted to push a new version earlier than planned.

The fact that it wasn’t possible to move multiple boxes in a program which makes it so desirable to move multiple boxes at once was a complete travesty.

If there’s any features you’re looking for in a future release or a bug that needs to be fixed, please let me know in the comments.

hello! i just downloaded this and i don't seem to be able to delete the empty boxes (or any text boxes..) in the tutorial text with the Delete key, nor backspace or ctrl + X. not sure what could be causing this.

wait i lied.. if i select enough boxes it works?? i'm confused, sorry lol

If you’re able to edit the text box (double clicking it will put you in edit mode), the delete works by removing characters ahead of the cursor. However, by selecting multiple boxes you probably exited edit mode which is why delete works as expected.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I think some other people are also having this problem. I’ll have to see if I can make it more obvious which mode you’re in and if you’re able to actually delete a text box or not.

cool :] sounds good
