PaintCode, How to add a frame around a portion of a vector and have it dynamically resize?

I've imported a vector layer from a psd into paint code v1, I'm trying to create a background image and make it universal.

I can't seem to add a frame around the vector, to complicate matters, I only need a portion, the center, of the layer. (The design is based around a circle, it has lines drawn towards the center of the circle.)

I can’t seem to add a frame to dynamically resize the part I need.

I found this http://www.raywenderlich.com/36341/paintcode-tutorial-dynamic-buttons the part about frame ans groups doesn't help me.... When I add a click frame and drag it around the area I need, it's at the same level as the vector layer. I've also tried adding a group around both, but that doesn't seem to obey the frame size either.

I’ve looked through the tutorials and googled adding a frame, but I can’t seem to achieve what I need.

Solution

  • A frame is supposed to be at the same level as the vectors you're working with.

    All you do then is set the resize rules of your vectors. There is a little rectangle in the frame's parameters interface with straight arrows and springs that you can modify to fit your wishes. I think I also remember a checkbox setting to resize only what's inside the frame.

    Now I haven't used PaintCode for a while, but if this doesn't help you, there probably is a problem with your vector layer.
