Hi Ton,

Is there a way to use SETPROP to interact on setting properties  
like hiding a window?


I tried setting 2 properties :


try this:


ON mouseUp
put empty into fld Status1
put empty into fld Status2

  set the cMYvisible of stack HideThis to true

set the pTest of stack HideThis to Here I Am
END mouseUp

The stack HideThis contains the following scripts:

SETPROP cMYvisible newValue
put newValue into fld Status1
set the visible of this stack to newValue

END visible

SETPROP pTest newValue
put newValue into fld Status2
END pTest


should work :-)

Stephen,

Try this -

In your repeat loop, add the line:
wait for 1 milliseconds with messages
This will allow the user to click the cancel button.

Now.. in the cancel button script set a global variable to some 
predetermined value (say, cancel).


Finally, back in the repeat loop - check for the special value in the 
global variable. If it's set, the user must have hit the cancel button.


HTH,

Scott Kane wrote:


Hi Sarah,

 


Mac users expect a Quit with the shortcut Command-Q.
I think I am correct in thinking that Windows users expect Exit. 
   



Yes.  You are right.  Windows users do expect that.  There two
types of shortcuts though.  some programmers use alt + e and most
use alt + x.  

Not sure I would agree with that recommendation. As far as I know, on 
Windows the Alt + char shortcuts should follow the Menu, so you would 
(usually) have the first menu item be File, and the last entry within 
that be Exit - and hence an exit shortcut would be most often Alt-F + 
Alt-X but I think I have seen Alt-F + Alt-E.


If there are additional, single key shortcuts, they *usually* use the 
Ctrl key. The MS GUI guidelines say that CTRL+letter combinations and 
function keys F!-F12 are usually the best choices. (see URL below); 
there is no required or recommended shortcut for program exit. I most 
often see Ctrl-Q, sometime Ctrl-E and never Ctrl-X (since that's the 
standard shortcut for Cut to clipboard).  There are some programs that 
use single-letter Alt-char shortcuts, indeed some that use Alt-X or 
Alt-E for exit, but I suspect those are ports from other systems - but 
the guidelines recommend against it.


MS has an excellent document about this - worth taking an hour or two to 
read it - 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnacc/html/ATG_KeyboardShortcuts.asp



The alt + F4 is a standard Windows sequence and applied
to any window (modal, document etc).  The system performs the 
alt+F4 for you unless you code it to bypass this (not recommended).
 


I second that.

Preferences: 
   



Preferences does fine.  Others used are Program Settings, User
Settings -
heaps of them really.  I'd stick with Preferences...
 


Option is more common Win than Preferences -

More cross-platform info needed - Linux Distro for testing

2006-05-15 Thread Richmond Mathewson
Ubuntu is, at least at present, the most widely used desktop PC linux Distro - 
it is also very easy to install; and is extremely tolerant if you want to pop 
it on a 'stray, old and neglected' PC you have lurking at the bottom of a 
cupboard.

I would recommend Ubuntu (which is Debian based) as ideal for testing with ONE 
CAVEAT from my own experience:

IFF you are going to use AIFF files (either embedded or referenced) they must 
be slowed down so that they play at half-spped on your MAC: this means that 
when they are transferred to Ubuntu RR will play them at normal speed: ODD, but 
not a high price to pay for a FREE OS!

sincerely, Richmond Mathewson

Re: More cross-platform info needed - menus

2006-05-15 Thread Thomas McGrath III

Sarah,

It is my experience that if a preference area holds selection options  
for a particular tool or aspect of a document then Options is used  
as a preference menu item. Microsoft Word uses a Properties menu  
for the document properties and an Options menu for Tool settings.


Revolution uses Edit Menu - Preferences

Both MS Office and Revolution use File - Exit and not Quit.


I have seen many other configurations but these seem standard.

sample rates in audio

2006-05-15 Thread Stephen Barncard
Actually you could halve that sample rate to 11 K and still have good 
intelligibility. Using the Nyquest theorem, the highest frequency you 
can record at a given sample rate is approximately less than half its 
sample rate. AM broadcast stations cut off at 5khz, which can be 
handled easily by the 11k sample rate.


This is not 11 k bits per second, like in MP3s, but a full parallel 
16 bits at 11k and without compression, will have no artifacts, just 
bandwidth reduction - i.e. less high end.


sqb




OK, yes, it works... but  one must stick with the default codec 
none ... any attempt to set it to ulaw with the USB mic doesn't

Routine to check status of URLs

2006-05-15 Thread RGould8
If I wanted to write a Revolution script that goes through a list of URLs and 
checks each URL's status, can anyone give me pointers on the best approach?

I was originally attempting to do a load URL approach, and then check the 
error that comes back (either OK, or not found, re-direct failure, etc).   
Unfortunately I'm finding that load URL tends to take awhile to get through 
URLs 
that do not connect.   I thought load url was a non-blocking command, but for 
some reason it does freeze the execution of the handler until it gets through 
the bad URLs.

Is there a more code to the metal of TCP/IP technique that I could use, 
just for testing the status of the web-sites?   The data I need to get back is:

1)   Whether the site contains a re-direct or not
2)   Whether the site is found or not
3)   Whether the site is blocked or not

Re: Routine to check status of URLs

2006-05-15 Thread Andre Garzia

Rob,

long time, no see!!! :-)

I'd use plain TCP calls. Use open socket command and write to socket  
and read from socket. This way you'll control your HTTP connection  
and be able to read all headers and status messages. HTTP is an easy  
protocol, specially if you're not doing MIME.


The HTTP Made Really Easy http://www.jmarshall.com/easy/http/ is  
a very easy to follow tutorial on HTTP protocol. You can just use  
that as a reference and script your calls.


The status codes will tell you all about the URL (move, redirect, not  
there...)


Cheers

Universal binaries from Revolution

11th hour problem with format in standalone

2006-05-15 Thread Ben Bock
I have a project with multiple stacks, working in Rev 2.6.1.  

Some of the stacks are questionnaires taken from paper, in which I created 
label fields and pasted the text in, then added groups of buttons over the top 
of the label field.  I did some spacing manipulations in the text by inserting 
carriage returns to get the space formatting correct.  It works fine in Rev, 
but when I made the standalone, it removed some of the carriage returns, and 
this screwed up the formatting.  The button groups stayed in the same place, 
but the text was collapsed in places, looks like some returns were removed.

What is Rev doing to the label fields when it creates the standalone?

Is there a way to lock the text within the label flds to prevent whatever Rev 
is doing?

Thank you for any help,

Ben

need rub my eyes and check again...am I the only one that senses  
Rev's move cmd to be  a bit jerky or is it just my video card?)

I tried it and I can't get the watch to go away.

Re: set cursor

2006-05-15 Thread Mark Schonewille
Probably, the cursor changes back to default, before you see the  
watch. Try this to test:


on mouseUp
  set the cursor to watch
  wait 5 seconds
end mouseUp

I'm not sure what is wrong with the last line of your script. I see  
an additional space in that line which is probably something else,  
maybe a tab or non-breaking space, maybe something else. I'd delete  
that line and type it again.


Best,

Mark

If you want the cursor to stick - you may need to look into the 
lockCursor property. Otherwise, it is reset on idle.

It's built-in:

   set the cursor to 31

I suspect your Mac is fast enough that the the cursor is set back to 
default before you even see the vertical divider. If you only need the 
cursor when the pointer is inside a particular object, you can lock 
cursor in a mouseEnter handler and unlock it in a mouseLeave handler to 
fix it.

Compressing Rev Compiled Apps?

2006-05-15 Thread Garrett Hylltun

Greetings,

Has anyone ever compressed rev compiled apps with UPX or any other 
executable compressor?


I tried the latest UPX on a rev windows exe, and the rev made exe didn't 
agree with being compressed by UPX.  At least that is using default 
settings with UPX.

Server permissions

2006-05-15 Thread Bill Vlahos
How can I determine the permissions on a server share/volume? I would  
like to document the server permissions on our file servers (both Mac  
OS X Server and Windows 2000 and 2003 servers).


I have an immediate need to do this on OS X (10.3.x) servers as I'll  
be upgrading them to 10.4. I am thinking of bringing up a whole new  
server and transferring the folders/files to it and then setting the  
permissions to match the old server.


Is there a Rev command that will give me permissions on the folder or  
file or do I need to script the shell? I assume I will need to run  
the application on the server itself so that it has access to all of  
the settings.


Info for each Share or Folder:
Path: /User Files
Owner: Admin : Read  Write
Group: General Users : Read Only
Everyone: No access

If I can get the command then I could build a permissions browser  
database for an entire server.

Re: Server permissions

2006-05-15 Thread Bill Vlahos
Two more pieces of information I would need is whether or not the  
permissions were inherited from the parent folder and AFP vs. SMB  
permissions. I can get by without either of these items for my  
particular servers because we generally inherit the permissions and  
AFP is the same as SMB but being able to get the information would be  
more helpful. I'm not even sure I can get these from the OS.

Re: Server permissions

2006-05-15 Thread Phil Davis

Bill,

This is an area that I don't know much about. Given that, here are my 
thoughts:


1) Are FTP permissions completely independent of the permissions you 
want to capture? If not, and assuming your target servers have FTP, 
maybe you could use the libURLftpCommand function to get permissions info.


2) Some kind of permissions are returned in item 10 of each line of 'the 
detailed folders'. Would that give you anything you can use?


Best -
Phil Davis
