How to set Set as stack Menu bar?
Hi, In the menu builder window you can check the option set as stack menu bar, so that the menu bar isn't shown in the stack window, but replaces the OS X menu. Now I would like to set this option by script, so that the menu switches to the OS X menu only in a standalone and not in the development environment. I don't find the property to set. It's not the menubar or defaultmenubar property. Any ideas? Alternate: Where can I see all properties of an object (in this case of the stack). I know, this has been discussed lately, but I don't find it.

Re: GUI scripting on windows
Hi Todd, Another alternative for you, could be to use Expect. Incidentily, this morning, I spoke a bit about it here: http://forums.runrev.com/viewtopic.php?f=19t=19377#p97985 Expect works on Unix, Linux, Mac and PCs, and we even could imagine building a LC-external for it which means the scripts could be written in Livecode then... Otherwise, AutoIT seems to be simpler to start with, but I don't have any experience with it.

Re: Wait command
Thanks to all for the replies, especially Geoff's clear example. That explains why I could not duplicate the bug I was chasing while in debug mode, since clicking any of the debug icons when on the wait command generated the usual mouse messages. However, I still don't understand why the wait 0 with messages command caused the rest of the statements in my script to be ignored. There was no other user interaction going on at the time so there should not have been any messages being fired. Even if there were, shouldn't control have passed back to my script after the message had been processed? I suppose a send in time command could have triggered but I don't think I have any of those in this application.

[ANN] Programming LiveCode for the Real Beginner - 3rd print
Hi everyone, I'd like to share a few words about my book with you. The second print of Programming LiveCode for the Real Beginner has been sold out now. In approximately 6 weeks we will publish the third print of the book. This book will be slightly different from the second print. I will probably change a word here and there, correct a few minor spelling errors and update one sample script. The book was published almost a year ago and the main challenge is now to keep this book available to the LiveCode community. You can help by telling new LiveCode users about Programming LiveCode for the Real Beginner. You can send your friends this link http://qery.us/44r or simply forward this e-mail to them. The third print of the book will be a limited edition. If you want to be sure to get a copy, you should order it now. You can (still) place an order at http://qery.us/44p -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Use Color Converter to convert CMYK, RGB, RAL, XYZ, H.Lab and other colour spaces. http://www.color-converter.com Buy my new book Programming LiveCode for the Real Beginner http://qery.us/3fi LiveCode on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/runrev/ ___ 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
[ANN] Coding Nine LiveCode Games eBook
Hi, Way, way back, Basic Computer Games by David Ahl was the definitive book about coding and playing games on what were then called home computers. I wanted to make a similar book with 101 LiveCode computer games, but quickly realised that it would take a very long time to do. Instead, today a more modest Coding Nine LiveCode Games eBook is finished and available. You can find out more about it at the link. http://livecodegamedeveloper.com/book.html It has 9 games: * Pong * Tetris * Dr. Eliza * 23 Matches * Tower Jump * Lunar Lander * Text Adventure * 3D Spider Hunt * 3D Isometric Maze I hope this book proves the clarity and power of LiveCode where code is shorter, and so quicker to develop, than other languages. With most games coded in under 500 lines of LiveCode, this book demonstrates good technique. To stimulate ideas for further development, and inspire both new and experienced LiveCoders.
