Im checking that later today (battery need to been charged first).

Btw. Im havent tested this. On my Acer, a left click is sendt when touched, and a holding touch was a right click. My tablet do can support around 5 touches seen. But im will test on that when im have time. You can eventuelt send me the code, if you can.

Also im liked the Acer Tablet very much. Howover there is some sleep issues with it, but minor details. Its was not my plan to purchase one, but im got one to a nice price.

Works on my Stoneage Acer Iconia W500. Displays mice: 32, but detects only 4 touches (thats max what my tablet supports).
In the past GLB worked on this tablet too, but only singletouch. Not tested again now.

Did you try with a screen scaling of > 100%, too? That might fail. If not, I'll prepare an update.

did you prepare all the fixes im have done on SVN (those Android and iOS fixes, recently the iOS orientations issues)? Im also not sure which fixes you also have done, so im not sure im have catch all of them.

I tried multiple scaling factors, all worked the same (besides when factor was so big, that the winow became bigger, then the screen, but in this case bugs are ok, i think).

If GLBasic can get a Windows 8 app store system in, then it'll be one in the eye for AGK2 :)

AGK2 has Twitter and Facebook integration, Box2D as standard too. It's likely to integrate Win8 Mobile too I reckon. Presently it's my language of choice. Not that I don't check here daily though  :good:

AGK2 has a major flaw for me as its not a proper compiler, it's a byte-code interpreter. Unfortunately this is kills anything even remotely complex off, speed wise, on mobile.

It is very slow, unless you go for Tier 2 and start using C++.

I dont think Windows 8 Tablet/Store is part of their plan yet - mainly because the required Kickstarter funds didn't reach the allotted amount for this area.

AGK2 is more compared to Java. Glbasic is in c++. Howover its could been fun to see a basic AGK2 Tier2 support. But something that would been too off really.

Sadly im could not test that on my tablet. But im do can run compiled code home, but not that one. Im really like the Acer tablet.

I have the AGK2 license, I don't test nothing, but I take a simple look to the API and it's something similar to Dark Basic, I think it's a Basic very simple but you have to repeat commands for make a bunch of things.

I remind when I bought GLBasic I don't understand because if you move an object in 3D and draw five .obj the five rotate, I come from Dark Basic (Really  don't understand too much about this languaje) and was extrange.

For me it's really more fun and I think more interesting GLbasic, I always say , GLbasic open me the doors for understand another languajes, and don't have fear to them, in example now I'm with C++ and, with SMFL2 I done simple things and Irrlicht, but al this it's consequence how works and learn with GLbasic, with darkbasic you can't understand another languajes...

The only good point of AGK over GLbasic it's the 3D, really don't is a Unity or Shiva3d , but have more quality in the render, I think making a good port of irrlicht we have a very good 3D, I downloaded the las SDK or irrlicht and I like a lot the things can do.

well I tried it on my Linx 10 tablet and it displays 3 2 on the active screen and mice: 32 of the command prompt screen and it displayed little pointers for all 10 fingers touching the screen (well I think it did as my fingers were hiding the pointers)
