hello,
I am new to the forum and I would first say that I find really fantastic Attract mode. It was exactly what I wanted to put in my mamecab.
I took advantage of some free time this weekend to try to write a little Squirrel theme . Absolutely not knowing the language , I had some difficulties to start but I quickly got to do what I wanted .
I enclose an attachment and I 'm interested in your advice and comments , especially on my use of language and the squirrel Attract Mode API.
Thank you in advance .

Hello,
I tried a bubble layout but I don't know how to force the marquee and snap to be upon the bubbles.
How can I do ?
Thanks !

Sorry I may misunderstand your question, but if you want your bubbles on the bubble layout to be drawn under the marquee and snap simply re-order your script so that the snap and marquee artworks are created at the end of the script (after the bubbles).
Attract-Mode always draws things in the same order that they are created in the script...

Hello,
I'm so stupid : it's works fine when I change order in the script.
Thanks a lot !
