Re: Pulling Unicode Data from a DataGrid

Re: Pulling Unicode Data from a DataGrid
1) Are you populating the data grid with an array containing UTF-16 data? UTF 8, I overrode the default behavior and when I FillInData: I do this: set the unicodetext of the long ID of me to uniencode(pData, utf8) and this works great. But, when I tried converting to UTF-16, then it is garbled. set the unicodetext of the long ID of me to uniencode(pData, utf16) 2) When you display the Japanese text in the data grid are you setting the unicodeText of a field in the row? -Yes, see above script. 3) Is the user updating this Japanese text at all or is it read-only? -It's read-only. 4) What conversions are you trying to run on the data when you pull it out with GetDataOfLine? put uniDecode(uniEncode(tVar, UTF16)) into tVar We basically want to compare UTF-16 strings.

Hi-Res imaging in LiveCode
I have found that printing an image at high resolution is not straightforward in LiveCode. 'Squishing' a large version down to say 50% dimensions ought to increase the pixel density, but although the kb size is large the pixel denisty stays at 72dpi. Something to do with how the engine renders images, I believe. However... If I do not import (copy and paste) and resize but 'set the fileName' and resize instead, the printed output does indeed seem to improve by the magnitude of squished-ness. If you already know, please move on, but I am quite chuffed to have discovered this for a current large-poster display project that is being ouput from LC to pdf.

Unicode is so much fun :-) One other thing to be aware of - when using uniencode and unidecode the byte order in the UTF16 text is dependent on the processor your application is running on. See the docs for uniencode. What this means is that if you have UTF-16 text from some other source then you have to make sure that it uses the same byte order when you do comparisons. I find it easier to do comparisons on UTF-8 text when working with 3rd party data. -- Trevor DeVore Blue Mango Learning Systems www.clarify-it.com-www.screensteps.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

Re: How to select lines in a field under a scroller in IOS
Devin, you are correct. I have a LiveCode field wrapped in an IOS scroller. I have been playing with various list behavior and autohilite properties. Since I am trying to select multiple lines at the same time I am seeing a conflict between the behavior of the field and the scroller. Looking at the behaviour of the native input control, apple seems to use a double tap to get into a select mode. They seem to turn off the scroll while the selection is taking place then turn it back on again. It seems that I need to figure out how to disable scrolling during the selection process and then enable it again. -= Mike On Mar 19, 2013, at 5:07 PM, Devin Asay devin_a...@byu.edu wrote: Mike, Sounds like you're just using a LiveCode field wrapped in an iOS scroller.

Sending mouseUp

Hi Mike, Good thinking, I had not included the card and stack in the path to the button. However, I changed that and still no joy. What's really strange is that it contains handled after a dispatch to the button, yet its clear the message is never making it that far. I've narrowed this down a bit further. The problem only occurs when I run Livecode and open the stack from the File menu. If I then close the stack and open it again, all works fine. Even more weird is if I close the stack and remove it from memory, then open it again from the File menu, all works fine!

Re: Sending mouseUp
Pete. Something like this has come up before. I remember that preOpenCard is invoked before the card (and the stack?) is even loaded into memory. I think. So there may be no valid target handler yet available to access. Why the handled value is set is odd, for sure, but I bet the answer is tangled up with the fact that these events are happening just a tad too early, before things have settled down. There were other threads about this sort of thing. I think Jacque chimed in with more information. Test: Does everything work fine if you move the handler to an openCard script?

Do a send in time with absolute pathing. Also i've noticed recently that inserting a wait 0 with messages prior to where a problem like this occurs sometimes magically fixes it. Its as if there is other housekeeping/engine stuff going on that interferes despite the message apparently getting through.

What's really strange is that it contains handled after a dispatch to the button, yet its clear the message is never making it that far. I've narrowed this down a bit further. The problem only occurs when I run Livecode and open the stack from the File menu. If I then close the stack and open it again, all works fine. Even more weird is if I close the stack and remove it from memory, then open it again from the File menu, all works fine! It's just that very first open of the stack after running Livecode when the problem occurs.

If there is a context issue going on that should solve it, and during preopencard I would wonder if the context is incorrect when the send is done. so dispatch or send it to button whatever card whatever of stack whatever to test and eliminate the possibility.

My preOpenCard handler calls another handler that contains the send of the mouseUp. When that handler is called from preOpenCard, the mouseUp handler never receives the message - I have an answer statement as the first statement in the button mouseUp handler and it never triggers. The same handler is called from other places after the card is opened and the mouseUp message is received OK. I changed the send to a dispatch and checked the it variable after the dispatch and it contains handled even during preOpenCard processing. Also tried the send in form of send with various times up to 1000 milliseconds, still no luck Does anyone know of any issues sending mouseUp messages during preOpenCard? I've run into several problems with code not working as expected during preOpenCard but haven't run into this one before.

Valentina DB
Anybody have the latest version of Valentina running in LC? I used Valentina years ago with Director and wanted to take advantage of the free offer. I have downloaded the LC version and installed it but the install instructions seem a little old and I don't see where it appears within the LC structure. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Valentina DB
Never mind I didn't explore the installed files good enough.

Re: Sending mouseUp

I think. So there may be no valid target handler yet available to access. Why the handled value is set is odd, for sure, but I bet the answer is tangled up with the fact that these events are happening just a tad too early, before things have settled down. Yep. Why are you trying to call a mouseUp handler on preOpenCard anyway? Take the code in mouseUp, put it in its own handler, and call it from mouseUp. Then call the same thing from preOpenCard. -- in button script on mouseUp doTheStuffThatUsedToBeHere end mouseUp on doTheStuffThatUsedToBeHere stuffThatUsedToBeHere end doTheStuffThatUsedToBeHere -- in card script on preOpenCard dispatch stuffThatUsedToBeHere to button yaddayadda end preOpenCard -- -Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net ___ 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
