But any video shoot (or still photo) does that anyway - the eye can handle very wide variations in light intensity, but photo/video can't, so the cameraman attempts to capture as much of the important detail as she can. But 'auto light level' (or AWB, or any other adjustment) will vary the detail captured. Not so much 'erase the truth' as 'try to convey as much as the tools allow', and I'd see 'flash suppression' (if it could be done properly) as a similar attempt to allow more people to watch a particular clip. But Tim is right - it's a cost issue rather than a technical one; and although a TV station might be able to do this and help promote their greater community concern for disabled folks, the affected target is probably too small to cost-justify it. Thirty years ago you wouldn't have seen on your TV screens BSL (or ASL) signers or real-time subtitling - maybe this will come some day.

Hi Mike, In that case, sockets are indeed not the right approach. It should be possible to use a standalone as a command line utility, with parameters as I explained before.

When you try to use it to change the layering of groups and objects, it confuses the targets and move not the selected object, but the following one… and so on, and so on.

Re: Finding the calling code/object/script?
What Mark and Scott said. Just a comment about documentation. The dictionary says clearly, though it was not findable by me until I knew what property to look for: A common use of the executionContexts is to obtain the name of the object and handler that called the current handler, this information is available as: line -2 of the executionContexts.

Re: Finding the calling code/object/script?
Check out the executionContexts - it will give you a trace back of the calling hierarchy.

Even though I didn't understand your instructions, I was able to download the dictionary editor stack and look forward to checking out how the dictionary works and its structure. Yeah, good luck with that. Bjornke understands that stuff better than most folks, and he can probably chime in here with a rant of his own. For my part, all I wanted to do was edit/create some doc files for the engine changes I had made, and I got Mark Waddingham to post the editor the team uses because a) I wasn't going to edit the xml by hand, b) I didn't have a way of viewing the results of editing the xml, and c) I don't know the xml format. The format isn't documented anywhere, there are xml tags like glossary that don't seem to be editable, but somehow they're in there and I don't know what they do. The xml format itself seems pretty bad, but it's tightly coupled to the doc files that get generated from it, so it's not likely to change. Meanwhile Bjornke has come up with a way to convert the doc files into a SQLite database, and that makes it faster, more maintainable, easier to use, and more flexible. Unfortunately his converter doesn't work on linux, but the resulting database is cross-platform. -- -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

Set a breakpoint, and the executionContexts appear in a popdown button at the top of the script editor. You can use that to backtrack through the script to see what called what. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.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

Off the top of my head I forget, but I think I remember something about assumptions about where files will end up. And probably permissions problems as well. I started looking at changing the code and then realized it was easier to be lazy and just do the conversion on OSX. -- -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

Re: Post command help
Hi Jacque, It sounds like the issue only occurs on OS X 10.6, right? Mac 10.7+ and Windows machines are not affected? Do you know? Umm, it's not working on Mac 10.7.5 right now on my box. And it's not working on Mac 10.8.4 on mine. Meanwhile the entire item that Thierry quoted has vanished from the release notes. And libUrlSetSSLVerification, mentioned (I think) in Thierry's response from RunRev support, does not appear in any documentation that I can find. I've added a bug report to the QCC (#11121) to reflect the fact that this remains a bug in, apparently, every version of OS X from 10.6 on. Just to add another data point, my client is running 10.8.x and I'm running 10.7.5 and https is working okay for both of us. So it doesn't seem to be universal. For the record, it has been working for a while from time to time (same box, same code on LC and server), and suddenly stops! If I remember well, you were setting libUrlSetSSLVerification to false ? Still true?

Actually I haven't set it to true yet, but after seeing the problem come up twice now I'm thinking maybe I should do the https check that Neil suggested when the app starts up , and if it fails I'll turn off verification. But so far we haven't had any problems. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.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
