Re: 4D scanning

2021-06-22 Thread Claudio Braga via 4D_Tech 
Hi, 

On Mac you can use scanline https://github.com/klep/scanline 


It is a cli util so with some launch external process calls you can drive it

i.e.

To get the list of available scanners 

$command:="/usr/local/bin/scanline -list -browsesecs 1 "
$std_in:=""
$std_out:=""
$error:=""
LAUNCH EXTERNAL PROCESS($command;$std_in;$std_out;$error)


To actually do a scan

//vSCANDOCS_scanner is the name of the scanner found with the -browsesecs option

$command:="/usr/local/bin/scanline -scanner \""+vSCANDOCS_scanner   
$command:=$command+"\" -a4 -flatbed -dir \""+Convert path system to 
POSIX($folder)+"\" -name "+$filename_for_scan
$std_in:=""
$std_out:=""
$error:=""
LAUNCH EXTERNAL PROCESS($command;$std_in;$std_out;$error)


So far I’ve been using it up to OS X 10.14, I’m in the process of testing it on 
Catalina, we’ll see

HIH

Is someone aware of any solutions available to capture a signature using a 
Wacom table on osx ? Wacom software seems to be available only on windows, and 
internet is not helping at the moment 

Thanks in advance

Re: 4d v14 web area & High Sierra & pdf

2018-02-06 Thread Claudio Braga via 4D_Tech 
Thank you,

Not a good news …

I see I can open it in a picture variable, but I might need some zooming 
capabilities, at least something more than the standard features of a picture 
variable, so I’ll elaborate a bit more on this and eventually I will look for 
the pdf viewer plugin.

Thank you again

Ciao

4d v14 web area & High Sierra & pdf

2018-02-05 Thread Claudio Braga via 4D_Tech 
Hi everyone, 

I have a 4d v14.6 app with a webarea to display pdf that I am testing now on 
High Sierra

the pdf docs aren’t displaying anymore (blank page), while on Sierra everything 
is ok

I looked in the past threads and even if I found some discussions about it 
there seemed to be no solution, is this still the case ?

TIA

Trace buttons disappeared (OS X 11.12, 4D v14.6)

2017-07-18 Thread Claudio Braga via 4D_Tech 
Hi everyone, 

I just encountered this problem, the buttons in the trace window are invisible 
(or hidden under the window bar).



Any trick to reset this ? 

Thanks in advance

Ciao
