Done. I've fought with this before. Its a real pain in the butt. Did things like setup the browser stack as a float on top stack that was docked with the stack behind. Then I could do stuff with the back stack and have the front respond. Never did work very well. Ended up doing as you suggested, using the resizer from the library, dumped the stock decorations etc, and since it was a video player window that I wished to be able to go in and out of fullscreen while playing a streaming vid in the browser, I ended up having a 2nd stack that existed for the sole purpose of going into and out of fullscreen behind the browser window to obscure the menu bar and dock. libKiosk worked pretty good for this too.

Re: iphoneRotateInterface command in mobile apps
On Oct 6, 2010, at 9:21 AM, paolo mazza wrote:

In our Rev_mobile applications we have to' write
if the environment is iPhone then
iphoneRotateInterface landscape left
end if
The iPhone simulator reports mobile, so you could do this to take care of
both cases:
if the environment is iPhone or the environment is mobile then
iphoneRotateInterface landscape left
end if
Is there an orientation change event that we can use, or can we read the
current orientation? Really, you would not use the above line if the user
happens to be holding the iPad in landscape right at the time. That would be
enough to get an App rejected by Apple.
Here's the logic I'm using in Flash, for an App that needs to be in landscape:
var startOrientation:String=stage.orientation;
if (startOrientation==default||startOrientation==upsideDown) {
stage.setOrientation(StageOrientation.ROTATED_RIGHT);
} else {
stage.setOrientation(startOrientation);
}
So, if the device is in either portrait, then I use landscape left (which in
Flash terms mean that the stage needs to be rotated right). If the device is
already landscape, then I set the stage to match the current orientation,
allowing a landscape right kinda person to carry on working like they want to.
In Flash there is also a change event, and on the change event you can prevent
portrait if you want to. My routine looks like this:
stage.addEventListener(StageOrientationEvent.ORIENTATION_CHANGING,
orientationChangeListener);
function orientationChangeListener(e:StageOrientationEvent) {
if (e.afterOrientation==default||e.afterOrientation==upsideDown) {
e.preventDefault();
}
}
In Flash things are usually passed on, so there's no need to do the equivalent
of a pass for the system to go ahead and do the orientation change, the
preventDefault will stop the change before it happens.
LiveCode needs to have the same abilities as Flash does for handling
orientation.

Hello, It seem that Revolution (4 and prior) doesn't play wmv videos that are on a CD-Rom under Windows Xp. I've tried with Parallels on my mac, it's work, i've tried on a real pc under Vista, it's works but under XP it doesn't works... but it work if it's a .mov video. It's the same for you ?

What patterns should I be looking for in the binary data of a file to distinguish UTF8 from plain text? Sorry, Richard, but I believe you are out of luck here. The idea behind UTF8 is that it's indistinguishable from ASCII (0-127). You may be able to scan the files, and if they are large enough, try and deduce some thing from them to know which they are. For example: On Windows, \r\n (13, 10) should terminate lines. Could very well be a text file. In ASCII there will never be a NULL terminator anywhere (byte 0). There's likely many 0-byte values in any appreciably large Unicode file. This would also be true of byte 8 (backspace) and byte 7 (the bell) and probably a few others. If the number of bytes that have the high bit (0x80) set is extremely low ( 1%) then most likely it's ASCII.

On 06/10/2010 15:06, Colin Holgate wrote: Is there an orientation change event that we can use, or can we read the current orientation? Yes to both - the current card gets an orientationChanged message when the device physically changes, and you can query the orientation at any time (including getting face up and face down). So you can tell when it changes, you can ask what it is at any time, and you can set the interface to any rotation at will. But of course the basic implementation is just to tie these three things together with a handler like this: on orientationChanged iphoneRotateInterface iphoneDeviceOrientation() end orientationChanged BTW, revMobile is unbelievably exciting. I say this as someone with a whole bunch of people in the studio working on iPhone and iPad projects in Xcode and ObjectiveC, who thought it was very nice but not interesting (and was selfishly perfectly content that the barrier to entry was kept high).

While my colleagues with more bare-metal skills are fully occupied, I was able to whip up a prototype for a client for one project, and a handy utility to assist the team on another, in an incredibly short time.

Below is a function that was translated from a PHP script. It is intended to
determine whether the passed in string could be utf8. I have tested it in a
limited way and it seems to work. But maybe someone else can see the flaws.
If it returns false, then it is not UTF8. If it returns true, it fits the
pattern of utf8, but it could be something else like some random binary.
If it doesn't work, you could perhaps use it to scare children.

Re: Distinguishing between ASCII and UTF8
Richard I have an app that needs to auto-detect Unicode and plain text, and render them correctly based on that auto-detection. I have the UTF16 stuff working, but with UTF8 I have a problem: there is no BOM to let me know if it's Unicode, and some plain text files will occasionally have high-ASCII values in them (like the dagger symbol). What patterns should I be looking for in the binary data of a file to distinguish UTF8 from plain text? These are the Rules of Thumb that I have used to try to determine the encoding type of text files. I feel that I achieved more than 90 per cent success but that may because most of the files only included true ASCII characters (0 -127). The script only tries to distinguish between ASCII, UTF-8, MacRoman and Windows 1252 Codepage (the US default for Windows). Rules of Thumb, applied in the following order: 1. If the string starts with a BOM, the encoding infered by the BOM will be returned. 2. If the string contains only characters in the range 0x00 - 0x7F, it is an ASCII string. 3. If the string contains more UTF-8 multi-byte characters than it does invalid utf-8 characters and invalid multi-byte sequences, it is a UTF-8 string. 4. If the string contains characters in the range 0xA0 - 0xFF but none in the range 0x80 - 0x9F, it is an ISO-8859-1 string. 5. If the string contains any of 0x81, 0x8D, 0x8F, 0x90 or 0x9D, it is a MacRoman string. . 6. If the string contains carriage returns but no line feeds, it is a MacRoman string. 7. It is a Windows 1252 Codepage string. The approach I take in the script is to count the different types of characters in the text and then apply the rules of thumb. The script is written in REBOL so will probably not be even be of help as a guide. However, the documentation includes a table of the differences between UTF-8, Windows 1252 and MacRoman which you may find useful. You can find it at http://www.rebol.org/documentation.r?script=str-enc-utils.r Regards Peter ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: Distinguishing between ASCII and UTF8
Jeff, Dave, Peter: thank you! Good stuff - I think I'll be able to distinguish most files using those. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World LiveCode training and consulting: http://www.fourthworld.com Webzine for LiveCode developers: http://www.LiveCodeJournal.com LiveCode Journal blog: http://LiveCodejournal.com/blog.irv ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
