Re: Secure Login
Hi, The ways to go are the same we can use in any other n-tiers development contexts. The best is to set up a mix of the bellow ways to go : 1.- login/password where the credentials are send over the network as hashed data to be tested against server-side localhost-accessible SQL stored reference (the first time - no direct connexion between the client and the SQL backend but client to LC-server and LC-server to SQL backend in localhost mode. It's there preferable to rely on an ACID-SQL RDBMS alike PostgreSQL, Sybase, Oracle, etc...) 2.- if matching, a token based SQL stored session is started for further exchanges all along the time the client will have to exchange data with the server (time 2 to n) where a cookie/SQL session is used 3.- as an option, the HTTPS encryption can be add to 1 + 2, if your mobile application follows the Apple's iTunes rules in about encryption uses but, no one should be encouraged to use 3.- without 1.- + 2.- as long as HTTPS is't as secure anymore as it use to be in the past... 4.- the session have to ends up with the client logout + a default timeout option to be set in the LC coded authentication workflow. As long as this authentication worklow matches, the data exchange between the client and the server continues and else it's interrupted and the client is prompted to login again to open a new trustable connexion.

iCloud external :-)
Folks, I have spent a lot of time on it over the last two months, but I finally have an iOS iCloud external working. One of the things I've learned is that iCloud works (by itself), but it is very easy to make a mistake - hence the apps that behave so badly with iCloud. Anyway, the external can: - give back your app name, team prefix, bundle identifier - put files in your app's container - manipulate and query the apps container (evict files, force download, modification dates, list files...) - put files in a shared container across apps - so you have shared data across iOS apps [ yes ... that's right!!!] - manipulate and query the shared container - put files in a container or shared container up for download for two weeks [ yes, you read this correctly as well] I can do two things: 1) continue with my main project as I will eventually 2) spend even more time and put the external up for sale for $49 As this really has been a LOT of work I don't want to put something up for sale if nobody is interested, so consider this a poll. Personally, I find the shared storage across apps and public data publishing is pretty awesome.

Re: physical books...
Thanks for letting me know. I've downloaded that one too now. It doesn't look as nice as the PDF, they have simplified some of the layout styles, but it does have hyperlinks between the contents and the pages, so that's good. The fill-justified paragraphs are somewhat disturbing in landscape, reading it in portrait is much better.

Re: iCloud external :-)
Hi Willem, Files from iCLoud are downloaded automagically. You just list the contents of the ubiquitous container, look at the dates or names and open whatever you want. That's the beauty of it: you just put the data there, and it automatically updates all devices. Of course, beware of versioning conflicts. But this is where Livecode (with its excellent text processing) excels. --Maarten On Fri, Aug 3, 2012 at 3:31 PM, William de Smet williamdes...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Maarten, This seem pretty straight forward.

I got an initial response about the process and TC's but have not heard anything since despite sending off the apps and sending several emails to inquire about status, acceptance, rejection. Is this normal and if so, I wonder what the point of having a store is?

RE: LC Android FC on Samsung s 3 sph-l 710. Android version 4.0.4
The problem was that the user has predictive typing on. This was mentioned on the list a one point and I forgot. I am now implementing the native controls and see if this will eliminate the restriction. The field object is MUCH nicer but if using the native input control fixes the problem I will live with it.

Re: UITextField - Text Appears Shifted?
Thanks for the suggestion Terry (and everyone else). I've since learned that the field portion of the input control always stays aligned to the top of its region, regardless of the control's height, while the clearbutton stays aligned to the vertical center of its height. I think this means the input control needs to be carefully sized to position its text and icon/s correctly (I assumed the text and icon would always appear vertically centered, but obviously this is isn't the case).

Re: LC Android FC on Samsung s 3 sph-l 710. Android version 4.0.4
FWIW, the same behaviour I saw before. (Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10, 4.0.4 stock, with the default Samsung keyboard.) When predictive text is on, no text entered shows in the text entry widget. Turn off predictive text, and you're off and running. Just as a data point, I installed SwiftKey 3 and tried that. No problems at all. I had logcat going the whole time, and again, didn't see anything untoward. I went through selecting one of the rows returned, and the map was pulled up, as well as trying to add the phone number to my contact list (since it couldn't be called on the tab). Not an in-depth testing session, but it certainly would have thrown up a problem if it were going to. Just for grins, I tried it on my Nexus 7 running Jelly bean. Sure enough, it crashes upon launch, so I can't tell if the input would hvae worked there. Best of luck. -Ken On 02/08/2012 23:55, Ralph DiMola wrote: Last message has a bad link again.

Re: UITextField - Text Appears Shifted?
Hi Scott Padding is a non-standard property of UITextField. RunRev could use a category to give us padding if they wanted. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3727068/set-padding-for-uitextfield-with-uitextborderstylenone I don't know of its possible for me to add a category to a class the engine uses and it work. It's worth an attempt but I think unless the external is linked in a certain way it would fail. It would be nice to be able to add a global UITextField padding command ;-) Cheers -- M E R Goulding Software development services mergExt - There's an external for that!

Re: UITextField - Text Appears Shifted?
Hi Monte: My issue is already solved, but all you should have to do is size a native input field to something like 100 pixels tall, with its clear button enabled. Once you start typing, you should see the text appear at the top of the field, while the clear button is drawn in the vertical center of the field.

Re: UITextField - Text Appears Shifted?
I didn't see any padding option in the release notes (believe me, I looked) is there one?. The only thing I was wondering was if this one of those if you don't set ALL the properties, it won't work right kind of situations, like some of the other native controls.

scroll ball or wheel script
I need a script that adds a vScrollbar script that adds a scroll bar after the field is full. I also need a scroll ball or wheel (3ed button) script that allows for scrolling up and down in that field. I am on a Mac but it would be needed for windows.

Re: UITextField - Text Appears Shifted?
I'm not setting them all. That's why I wanted to check your code. There's no padding property but what I see is definitely more padded than your capture. -- M E R Goulding Software development services mergExt - There's an external for that!

Maybe this will get you started: both of these scripts use me so they need to be placed inside the field script -- show or hide a vert scrollbar -- this could be triggered from several events -- as an example, it is placed in the rawKeyDown handler command ShowHideScrollBar if (the formattedHeight of me)(the height of me) then set the vScrollBar of me to true else set the vScrollBar of me to false end if end ShowHideScrollBar -- use the mouseWheel on rawKeyDown theKeyNumber ShowHideScrollBar if theKeyNumber is 65308 then put 15 into tScrollInc -- increaseScroll -- mouse wheel down if theKeyNumber is 65309 then put -15 into tScrollInc -- decreaseScroll -- mouse wheel up if tScrollInc is empty then pass rawKeyDown -- don't forget this! set the vScroll of me to (the vScroll of me + tScrollInc) end rawKeyDown -- Scott Morrow Elementary Software (Now with 20% less chalk dust!) web http://elementarysoftware.com/ email sc...@elementarysoftware.com -- ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
