Hi,

I got one more question concerning the BuildEntityButton and the properties.

So setting properties like a rotation works fine when dragging an entity into the game. But when I now have e.g. my wall with a rotation of 45, that I already dragged into the game, and I want to change it’s position by picking it up again, and moving it around, it loses it’s set property. Meaning in my case I dragged a wall with rotation 45 into the game, and after picking it up again, the rotation got reset to 0.

Is this a known bug, or can I do anything against it?

Hi, we can reproduce the problem and are currently investigating the issue. I’ll let you know as soon as we got a solution for you.

Hi again,

a possible workaround would be not to set the rotation of the EntityBaseDraggable, but instead the rotation of all its children.

import QtQuick 1.1
import VPlay 1.0
import Box2D 1.0

EntityBaseDraggable {
  id: obstacle
  entityType: "obstacle"

  property int size: 64
  property alias rectRotation: rectangle.rotation
  property alias collRotation: collider.rotation

  width: size
  height: size

  colliderSize: size

  colliderComponent: collider
  selectionMouseArea.anchors.fill: collider

  Rectangle {
    id: rectangle
    color: "grey"
    x: -width/2
    y: -height/2
    width: parent.width
    height: parent.height
  }
  BoxCollider {
    id: collider
    x: -width/2
    y: -height/2
    bodyType: Body.Static
  }
}

And then call this in your BuildEntityButton:

creationProperties: { "rectRotation" : 45, "collRotation" : 45 }

Is this sufficient for your demand?

Best Regards,
Alex
