Glider (IDE)
#1

Hi, I’m a newbie to Corona and Lua Glider.  I’ve just bought Lua Glider to use on my Windows 8 laptop - it looks professional so I must commend you on that!  However, I can’t seem to do simple stuff on it, so I’m sure there’s an easy answer that I’m missing.

  1. I like auto-complete and documentation hints as I’m a new user, but I can’t see any auto-complete on my version.  Do I have to press a key or change an option to bring up auto-complete from the default version that I’m using?

  2. I like the documentation viewer window, but it seems to appear transparent when I use a second screen.  Can this be made more solid for viewing and learning?

  3. How do I see the Accelerator/Gyroscope/Compass Ultimote? window using my default version - again, are there option settings that I have to set, or stuff I have not downloaded?

Thanks!

You can just go to window-> ultimote and it should pull it up. Please be sure to check “enabled” for every event type you wish to send.
