Hello,
set each element in scene tag for identification and then use getChildByTag().

If you have two buttons use tags too:

HelloWorld::menuCallback(CCObject* pSender)
{
   CCNode* node = (CCNode*) pSender;
   int nodeTag = node->getTag();

   if (nodeTag == 1)
   {
      //first button
   }
   else if (nodeTag == 2)
   {
       //second button
   }
}
#22

where the tag we can set it ?
I didn’t find tag where we can set in Cocosbulier.

#23

1.select item for which you can set tag
2.set tag for selected item

#24

The Spriter may be a good tool in coming future

Hi All,

I have updated the GB2ShapeCache reader class to work with the newest branch of cocos2d-x, 2.0. This handles the deprecation of CCMutableDictionary and CCMutableArray. Check out the project page on my site for download or links to the source on github: http://www.channon.us/?page_id=48

I’m not sure about a good free font editor for OS X, I’m using GlyphDesigner and I’m satisfied. If you find one, let us know

I don’t know in which part of the process you’ve got that messages.

I’ve installed fontforge on my virtualbox Mountain Lion (through

sudo port -v install fontforge

after installing MacPorts 2.1.3, XCode Command Line Tools (XCode/Downloads) and XQuartz 2.7.4. (X11) and everything works fine.

yeah I used mac ports too,

I get this error when I try to load any fnt file included with cocos2d-x.

.fnt file is special purpose font format, you should use Bitmap Font Generator or Hiero to generate it after you’ve designed your font with, for example, fontforge.

OK thanks for the tip
