ShapeCollection

Introduction

Glue supports creating objects of type ShapeCollection. You can create ShapeCollection objects two ways:

1. From a .shcx file. To do this, first you must create a .schx file. For information on creating a ShapeCollection file, see this page. Once you have a ShapeCollection file, you can create an object using the “Entire File” option. For information on this, see this page.
2. With no backing file. To do this:
   1. Right-click on Objects under a Screen or Entity
   2. Select “Add Object”
   3. Verify that “FlatRedBall or Custom Type” is selected.
   4. Select “ShapeCollection”
   5. Click OK
