At least, I didn't. So I've added this to the beginning of the init() function: <div class="bb_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="as3" style="font-family:monospace;">// Don't bother increasing size with contentScaleFactor this.scaleX = 1 / Starling.contentScaleFactor; this.scaleY = 1 / Starling.contentScaleFactor;</pre></div></div> <img src="http://forum.starling-framework.org/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_smile.gif" title=":-)" class="bb_smilies" /> Maybe scaling the whole object isn't the nicest way but it avoids changing the rest of the code. That way it doesn't get in the way of other additions or changes you might have made. Plus, this is only for development so let's not spend ages rewriting things <img src="http://forum.starling-framework.org/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_wink.gif" title=":wink:" class="bb_smilies" /> Daniel on "Starling port of Mrdoob's Stats class" http://forum.starling-framework.org/topic/starling-port-of-mrdoobs-stats-class/page/2#post-4546 Fri, 06 Apr 2012 15:05:46 +0000 Daniel 4546@http://forum.starling-framework.org/ Robbson, es ist leider ebensowenig Deutsch, aber zumindest enthält das neue Wiki eine zusätzliche Starling-Anleitung: <a href="http://wiki.starling-framework.org/manual/start" rel="nofollow">http://wiki.starling-framework.org/manual/start</a> It's still lacking a lot of information, but I hope I (and others who want to help out) can take this as the scaffold for an extensive documentation on Starling! =) killerspaz on "Starling port of Mrdoob's Stats class" http://forum.starling-framework.org/topic/starling-port-of-mrdoobs-stats-class/page/2#post-4451 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 19:55:18 +0000 killerspaz 4451@http://forum.starling-framework.org/ Hey Maru, thanks for the port. On my local version, I've updated the UI to also include the DPI of the device. In a day and age where multiscreen development is important, I felt it was good information. It also helped me figure out why my screen layout was acting funky on device vs desktop (I had the wrong DPI set for the simulator). Here's my copy: <a href="http://pastebin.com/BvSNnTb5" rel="nofollow">http://pastebin.com/BvSNnTb5</a> (expires in 1 month) **edit** As another note, it might be useful to show the stage size as well.

I only tried it after "new Starling(Game, stage);" but this was a dead end, too. So good to know this Starling book is for free because it feels very unfinished. This could frustrate beginners. But better than nothing, of course. By the way this is a good motivation to write another book or tutorial, vielleicht sogar in Deutsch. <img src="http://forum.starling-framework.org/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_smile.gif" title=":-)" class="bb_smilies" /> Robbson Daniel on "Starling port of Mrdoob's Stats class" http://forum.starling-framework.org/topic/starling-port-of-mrdoobs-stats-class/page/2#post-3920 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 15:10:59 +0000 Daniel 3920@http://forum.starling-framework.org/ You may be doing it too soon in your code, when "Starling.current" is not available! Try to do it in the constructor of your "Game" class.

As soon as I put the line <div class="bb_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="as3" style="font-family:monospace;">addChild(new Stats());</pre></div></div> into my code (like the author does it in his intro book) I get a null pointer exception in <div class="bb_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="as3" style="font-family:monospace;">nativeStage = Starling.current.nativeStage;</pre></div></div> I already use this first application with the newest starling framework version from github so the nativeStage should be accesible. And it seems so because the assignment works in the Startup class source but not in Stats class. I tested it in seceral browsers. Now I've run out of ideas.

I guess this is what you really want to do: <div class="bb_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="as3" style="font-family:monospace;">Starling.current.nativeStage.removeChild(Starling.current.nativeStage.getChildByName("_bgBitmap"));</pre></div></div> super80 on "Starling port of Mrdoob's Stats class" http://forum.starling-framework.org/topic/starling-port-of-mrdoobs-stats-class#post-3844 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 22:03:41 +0000 super80 3844@http://forum.starling-framework.org/ Hi all- I have a background image which I add to the stage BEFORE I call Starling.start(). Once Starling has started, I need to remove that initial asset from the stage. I read through this thread which says that I can access the nativeStage from Starling. So I am doing this: Starling.current.nativeStage.stage.removeChild(getChildByName("_bgBitmap")); However this produces an error: 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type starling.display:DisplayObject to an unrelated type flash.display:DisplayObject. Any ideas? Thanks!

I get the trace action on the addedEvent but no stats on scene, no error. <div class="bb_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="as3" style="font-family:monospace;">package { import flash.display.Sprite; import flash.display.StageAlign; import flash.display.StageScaleMode; import flash.events.Event;   import starling.core.Starling;   [SWF(width="960", height="640", frameRate="60", backgroundColor="0xffffff")]   public class Main extends Sprite { public function Main() { addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, addedHandler); }   protected function addedHandler(event:Event):void { stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT; stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;   var s:Starling = new Starling(MainGame, stage); s.antiAliasing = 1;   s.start(); } } }</pre></div></div> And here is my MainGame.as class: <div class="bb_syntax"><div class="code"><pre class="as3" style="font-family:monospace;">package { import fr.kouma.starling.utils.Stats;   import starling.display.Sprite; import starling.events.Event;   public class MainGame extends Sprite { public function MainGame() { addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, addedHandler); }   private function addedHandler(e:Event):void { trace("added."); addChild(new Stats()); } } }</pre></div></div> Again, no errors on compiling but no stats on scene!

Then I realised it was happening every time the stats updated so unfortunately it's not useable for me in its current state. Bitmap fonts are probably the way to go!

Does anyone else get this? I ignored it for a while since the class wasn't going to make it into the final build of my project anyway, but it's always bothered me. This morning I was bored, so I went into standard_07_55.fnt and changed size's value from -8 to 8 and that made the error go away. I'm happy that there aren't any more warnings, but I dislike changing things in 3rd part classes, especially ones that I don't fully understand... ekeeper on "Starling port of Mrdoob's Stats class" http://forum.starling-framework.org/topic/starling-port-of-mrdoobs-stats-class#post-1326 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 08:18:12 +0000 ekeeper 1326@http://forum.starling-framework.org/ Thank you for this cool extension!
