Is it possible to define "build variables" that can be seen by the code?

There is a problem with text positions on the iPhone, which I mentioned in a previous post: http://developer.anscamobile.com/forum/2011/07/20/wrong-text-positions-iphone

One possible way around it would be to define a build variable, say, iPhoneTextYOffset (in build.lua?) which could be used by the code when building. Is this possible? [import]uid: 64736 topic_id: 12886 reply_id: 312886[/import]

I don’t think there is any build variable functionality like that, but you could probably hi-jack the newText function to offset the text for you when on device. [import]uid: 5833 topic_id: 12886 reply_id: 47319[/import]
