I did try that but to no avail. However, I solved my problem by putting the 
guts of the script inside a handler in the stack I want to control. I then just 
call that handler from the stack that is controlling. Works great . . . 
probably a better way to go anyway.

Thanks for your help

Re: autohilite FUBAR?

[Richard Gaskin via use-livecode]

Thanks for the feedback, Clarence and Jim.

I found a report for this originally specifying Android only (where I 
first noticed it), and added a note about the scope affecting both 
Windows and Linux too:

Hi Jim. I agree that this should be the behavior on all Os's. On Windows, as you move the mouse across a button, the buttons exhibit a slight flashing effect. It's as though there are some kind of Zones in the button. 
I've never noticed this until Richard made mention of this activity. It is slightly noticeable, but it is definitely there.


Sincerely,

Richard,

On Mac when I hold the mouse down on a LC button, I can move the cursor around 
within the button and the button remains hilited.
As soon as the cursor exits the button the hilite disappears.
To me this is the desired behavior one should see on all platforms.

Lock/Unlock Screen of another stack

[Roger Guay via use-livecode]

Hi all,

I have a button on one stack that hides and shows controls of another stack. Is 
it possible to add Lock screen for effect and Unlock screen with effect in that 
button? Can’t seem to make it work….

Thx,

Re: Polygons

[J. Landman Gay via use-livecode]

To simulate a graphic with no lines, set the border color to the same color 
as the fill. Set opaque to true. You could then overlay that with a line 
graphic that just has the top portion of the graph (no x-axis line.)

Re: Polygons

[Ian McKnight via use-livecode]

I would hazard a guess that the fill area needs to be bounded by a line. If
a line is missing the fill routine can't determine where the edge of the
fill is and so fails, leaving the grc empty. I may be completely wrong on
this but it seems logical.

Not much help I know but if you want to emphasise the edge of the bar could
the special effects settings help? I haven't tried his but have your bar as
a filled grc with out an edge and play with internal, external glows and
shadows etc to emphasise the outline.

Re: Polygons

[Terence Heaford via use-livecode]

OK, I have changed your script by adding these lines to the mouseUp handler

set the backgroundColor of grc "myPoly" to red

set the forecolor of grc "myPoly" to blue


Now if you switch the lines on/off you will see that the fill does not work 
without all lines.

Not sure what this means exactly.

Re: Polygons

[Terence Heaford via use-livecode]

Thanks for your example.

I am basic filling underneath a line chart to make an area chart but the 
closing lines to the x-Axis do not have a line.

I concluded to draw a polygon twice once with fill and no lines, filled to the 
x-Axis and overlay it with a similar polygon but not starting/finishing at the 
x-Axis but finishing at the first/last point. (hope this makes sense).

Will play with your example.

Thanks

Terry

Re: Polygons

[Ian McKnight via use-livecode]

I have to say that I'm not seeing this.
I seem to remember that graphics can't show a fill unless all lines are
visible.
As a test I created a graphic called "myPoly" .
I placed a checkbox called "showSides" (and removed its script)
in a button I placed the following script:

-

*on* mouseUp

*-- points for a 100 unit square with 4 sides visible*

*put* "50,50" & "150,50" & "150,150" & "50,150" & "50,50" 
into tPointsFor4Lines

*-- points for a 100 unit square with alternate sides visible*

*put* "50,50" & "150,50" & cr& "150,150" & "50,150"  &
"50,50"  into tPointsFor2Lines

*set* the opaque of grc "myPoly" to true *-- ensures fill is visible*

*if* the hilite of btn "showSides" is true

*then*

*set* the points of grc "myPoly" to tPointsFor4Lines *-- all sides showing*

*else*

*set* the points of grc "myPoly" to tPointsFor2Lines *-- alternate sides
showing*

*end* *if*

*end* mouseUp

--

When you run this and flip between 4 and 2 sides its showing the square is
drawn correctly,

4 sides visible - filled and 2 sides visible - not filled

If you check the Inspector for the graphic the opaque property hasn't
changed.

The only way I can think to overcome this is to create another graphic -
the same size as your first one, place it underneath your graphic and group
them together. Then when all sides are visible you can make this background
graphic invisible and when sides are 'missing' make it visible again to
provide the fill or simply leave it visible since it won't be seen under
your original graphic. When sides 'disappear' and the fill disappears this
graphic will then provide your fill.


Hope this is of some help

Ian

Re: Polygons

[Terence Heaford via use-livecode]

When you do this it appears to affect the fill settings. I lose the fill where 
there are no lines and the closure of the points also moves.

I can’t believe it’s LC, it must be me. A simple script example would be useful 
if you have the time.

A square, that’s easy, that has the side lines missing and is filled with a 
colour.

Regards

Terry

 So make sure that your list of points doesn't begin with the right angle
 vertex and you're good to go.

Re: Help! I'm stuck

[J. Landman Gay via use-livecode]

It's not a bug, it was intentionally introduced to allow a couple of 
features, like retaining script local variables after a build. Given the 
amount of extra scripting to work around it for existing stacks, I think it 
may have introduced more problems than it tried to cure.


I did try turning off messages before a build but it didn't work.

Re: Polygons

Hi
Put a space in-between the points where you want  the line in not be drawn.
The shape is still constructed but with missing sides.

Thanks for that, clearly understood.

To expand on the original question. If you have a hexagon, is it possible  to 
only draw lines on sides 1,3,5,6 and no lines on sides 2,4.

Re: Help! I'm stuck

[Sean Cole (Pi) via use-livecode]

You can also turn off messages and errors from the Toolbar before you
build. This should prevent any pre/open or pre/close scripts from running.
And make sure all inspectors, message box and project browser are closed
too as well as any windows/stacks other than your main stack.

Re: Star score graphic generator achievable with inks... or...?

[David V Glasgow via use-livecode]

Thanks, but Bob Sneidar was exactly right in his original post.  His solution 
works beautifully with real numbers represented as part stars.  I did look at 
the segmented widget, but I wanted to represent real numbers from averaging 
customer ratings.

The only teeny  limitation is that between each star there is a small gap in 
which ‘between stars’ scores are not displayed until the threshold of the next 
stars leftmost point is reached.

In terms of the typical web display of customer feedback, it isn’t significant.

Cheers

 Thanks,Bob,  but as I understand what you are saying, wouldn’t that only 
 trade in whole stars?  The easiest way to do that would be with icon 
 switching - I want to have the last star part gold and part grey, (with a  
 vertical boundary through the star) if that is what is demand by the mean 
 feedback score being represented.
 
 I’m thinking perhaps icons will be the easiest way to go.  Maybe 10 stars 
 each representing a degree of  ‘goldness’ and I will just set the stars 
 Icons as required.  Duh!  Actually 11 stars, I will need a 0% gold.
 
 Thanks anyway

Re: Help! I'm stuck

[Sean Cole (Pi) via use-livecode]

ResolveID is referring to the stack, card and object IDs to tie it to your
breakpoints.

Focus on your main stack. In the Development menu bar, choose Clear All
Breakpoints. It’s a good idea to do this every time before a main
standalone build.

So, Delete all your breakpoints. Then resave. (Close and reopen your stack
and LC if you like). Rebuild. It will be ok.

Re: Polygons

[Ian McKnight via use-livecode]

Yes. Polygons use a list of 4 points to describe a triangle. The first and
last are the co-ords of the same vertex to ensure closure.
If the last point is left out then the line between the last vertex and the
first vertex is not drawn.
So make sure that your list of points doesn't begin with the right angle
vertex and you're good to go.

Re: "tsnet (1) Received HTTP/0.9 when not allowed"?

[Andre Garzia via use-livecode]

Are you using the time travel external? HTTP/0.9 has been historical for a long 
while, you can see more about this protocol at:

To what server you’re connecting?

Polygons

[Terence Heaford via use-livecode]

If I draw a shape using a polygon, as an example assume a right angled triangle.

Is it possible to hide the line between the points that make up the hypotenuse?

Thanks
