No. Trying the Socratic method to get him to think about his own code...

This would be simpler if the touch code and laser update code were their own functions, as they are completely independent. The fact that he shares a direction variable name is what is confusing him.

The touch code creates a laser. The laser created is spawned, and the code that sets the rotation and initial offset.

The code that moves the lasers is completely separate (one needn't have touch code at all to move laser objects). Lasers move even when buttons are not touched. So, how can you figure out what direction a given laser should travel?

@ihf No news, no answer to my post beginning with "To avoid confusion between long press / double tap on an outline"...
Do we stop the project?

Well everyone has or had this issue in past, but we are here to get the solution, so can we have that, please.

Can you help me with the steps, to begin with, I would be grateful if you could lend me some time for this.

Thanks

The current Python is 3.9.5 with Python 3.10 currently in Beta 3.

@Wenzel3 Really it's grateful to see people are helping each other unknowingly and that too with this much detail....@JonB You deserve my respect.

@frankL be careful that there are two kinds of images:

ui.Image which is the Pythonista version of UIImage standard iOS image PIL Image which comes from a Python module named PIL
The forum contains a lot of topics about tHem and their conversion in both directions.
Good luck

For doing 1:1 character replacements, maketrans plus translate makes for clean code. You list all the characters you are replacing in one string, all the replacements in the second, and all the characters to delete in the third argument to maketrans.

Damn, I never knew about this. Now I can finally replace my for c in (...): s = s.replace(c, "") loops. My code may finally look acceptable.

It worked!!
I could stop Action.repeat().
Thank you so much!!

I think what you want is contains_rect, which you would apply to the bbox of the SpriteNodes.

IIRC you may be able to use in as well:
if other_rect in this_rect:

From the docs:

Rect.contains_point(p)
Return True if the given point lies within the bounds of the rectangle, False otherwise.

Rect.contains_rect(other_rect)
Return True if the given rectangle lies entirely within the bounds of this rectangle, False otherwise.

Rect.intersects(other_rect)
Return True if this rectangle intersects with the other rectangle, False otherwise.

Restart pythonista.
Type import pytds
Do you get an error?

If so, check that you actually installed pytds to your site-packages folder.

Thank you.

@smiddleton I think that @emma0122 is happy with the background process, not with the group messages process, but I may be wrong

@masscode Another way could be, for each photo you want to hide:

keep a copy in a local folder delete it from the camera roll

Problem solved, new phone has below left either abc or 123 button and that is start first too other 123 cides shows a lot of other signs

Thanks

@masscode 👍

Thanks a ton, @JonB for your help, God bless you.
