Re: mergJSON, externals and Livecode Server
Thanks Thierry - jq looks fantastic. Needs to be a new LCB library for sure. But for now I need to get JSON in and out of Livecode arrays on the server. Monte's external is available for all platforms - so it should work on the server I think the the mergJSON.so is the version I believe that is used on Linux. Puttin it in the cgi bin along side the built in externals does not seem to be sufficient. How does basic extension configuration work on a server?

mergJSON, externals and Livecode Server
Hi - I'm looking to switch from parsing JSON with scripts to Monte's external (which i've been using on mobile / desktop for a while and works great) - but I can't get it working (Im on Ubuntu 14.04 with DigitalOcean) and Livecode server version 7.06 rc3). It's either because the external does not work on the distro I have (from memory it's a 64 bit server install), or more likely I'm doing something stupid like not registering the external properly. Any pointers as to how to register externals for a server / how to check they are installed - I'm getting an empty response from: - the externalpackages of stack home which is probably the wrong thing to do on a server anyway :) ___ 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 resize the columns of a datagrid?
You may want to try this: 1. Save the original width of datagrid in a custom property cOldWidth. 2. In the datagrid script, handle resizeControl: on resizeControl local tFraction put (the width of me / the cOldWidth of me) into tFraction repeat for each line tLine in the dgProp[columns] of me set the dgColumnWidth[tLine] of me to the round of (tFraction * the dgColumnWidth[tLine] of me) end repeat Make sure that the minimum column width and column resizablity properties are properly set. I haven't tried this out. Hope it works. The idea is to handle the change under resizeControl Regards, Sri -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/How-to-resize-the-columns-of-a-datagrid-tp4694576p4694577.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.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: Control structure with not
Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you want but I think my code does that. For example, let's say tSender is Apple: set tSwitchApple to (tSender is not Apple) -- false set tSwitchPeach to (tSender is not Peach) -- true set tSwitchGrape to (tSender is not Grape) -- true Looking at your code again, it's unclear as to whether your tSwitchxxx things are variables or custom properties. Using set makes me think they are custom properties but then you would need of objectreference or the script won't compile. If they are variables, then use put to put values into them. If they are variables, I'd make the switches into an array and then: repeat for each item rFruit in Apple,Peach,Grape put (tSender is not rFruit) into tSwitches[rFruit] end repeat And I really like Phil's split solution!

So though the overall syntax that follows is correct, the handler will not compile. on doThisThing tSender switch case tSender is not “Apple” set tSwitchApple to true break case tSender is not “Peach” set tSwitchApple to true break case tSender is not “Grape” set tSwitchApple to true break end switch end doThisThing In other words, the snippet set tSwitchApple to true has to be something like: set the tSwitchApple of this stack to true or if indeed a variable put true into tSwitchApple Craig Newman on doThisThing tSender if tSender is not “Apple” then set tSwitchApple to true end if if Sender is not “Peach” then set tSwitchPeach to true end if if Sender is not “Grape” then set tSwitchGrape to true end if end doThisThing -Original Message- From: Peter Bogdanoff bogdan...@me.com To: How to use LiveCode use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Sent: Tue, Aug 4, 2015 5:26 pm Subject: Control structure with not Is it possible to convert this to a switch control structure, or otherwise refined somehow?

Re: Sample Android Scroller?
Yes, the list uses a native scroller. As a test, I tried downloading a recent scroller sample posted in the forums (which was most likely done for iOS) and ran into the same poor performance. I'm hoping I'm just missing something, but than other than setting the layerMode of group to scrolling and enabling acceleratedRendering, I'm not sure what else I can try.

Hi Scott, My experience with scrolling on Android has been the same as yours. We tested on a Nexus 7. Nice device that runs 3D games with ease. 2D games are amazing as well. I chalked it up to LC needing some optimization for this platform. For anyone wanting to see our code, you can download the whole mobile app here: http://livecloud.io/live-events-source/ http://livecloud.io/live-events-source/ If we can get the performance up to what is available on iOS, that would be fantastic.

Just install the stack and associated external in your plugins folder and LiveCode will recognise when you plugin an iOS device and list it in the Test Targets submenu. You can then click the Test button and it will install onto your device. Great for rapidly testing on a device where it counts. This new plugin is available from mergExt.com http://mergext.com/ for $9 or bundled in mergExt Complete which is now $940 worth of products for $299.

Re: How to resize the columns of a datagrid?
If you want proportional, all the same size relative to each other, something like this in the card script should work. on resizestack set the rect of group 1 to the rect of this card -- set your dg group to whatever new size you want resizecol end resizestack on resizecol put the width of group 1 into tWidth put the dgProp[ columns ] of group 1 into tCol put trunc((the effective width of group 1) / (the number of lines in tCol)) into tWidth repeat for each line tLine in tCol set the dgColumnWidth[tLine] of group 1 to tWidth end repeat end resizecol It does a pretty good job, but it leaves the horizontal scroll bar up. I'm sure you could nudge things around so that there was no scroll bar (or just turn that one off) If you want different sizes, all changing proportionally, you'll need to do as sri said and adjust based on a factor. (it should be easy enough to store the size of each column as a percentage of total width and use that to generate your widths) On Tue, Aug 4, 2015 at 9:26 AM, Klaus major-k kl...@major-k.de wrote: Hi Tiemo, Am 04.08.2015 um 17:10 schrieb Tiemo Hollmann TB toolb...@kestner.de: Hi Bob, are you thinking of dgColumnIsResizable?

If you don't have time to share your full LiveCode story, take a photo of your work and share it on social media. Or send the photo to me and I'll share it for you on our social pages! Two tips for the readers here on using social for LC 1. Twitter, Facebook, and G+ all allow hash tags, so if you tag your LiveCode-related posts with #livecode they're not only easier for other LiveCoders to find, but help extend the reach of those posts and that tag across the network. 2. LinkedIn's Endorsement feature is extensible, so that as long as you use at least one of the suggested tags you can also add a custom one - such as, say, LiveCode. Eventually I'd like to see LiveCode become a suggested tag there, and it may be possible if we do two things: - Include LiveCode among your skills in your Linked profile - Add LiveCode to endorsements you make for those you know have good LiveCode skills. -- Richard Gaskin LiveCode Community Manager rich...@livecode.org ___ 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: Control structure with not
You can always use 'switch' without specifying an expression to evaluate as part of the 'switch' line, like so: switch case (tSender is not Apple) put true into tSwitchApple --break case (tSender is not Peach) put true into tSwitchPeach --break case (tSender is not Grape) put true into tSwitchGrape --break end switch Or there's this. It doesn't generate errors but it also doesn't work - the variables are not filled by it: switch tSender case (not Apple) put true into tSwitchApple --break case (not Peach) put true into tSwitchPeach --break case (not Grape) put true into tSwitchGrape --break end switch (break is commented to allow same logic flow as your example) Here's another way (that does work) to skin that cat: on doThisThing pSender constant kFruits = Apple,Peach,Grape put kFruits into tFruitsA split tFruitsA with comma as set put false into tFruitsA[pSender] end doThisThing I love arrays. And there are probably many other ways to do it. Phil Davis On 8/4/15 2:24 PM, Peter Bogdanoff wrote: Is it possible to convert this to a switch control structure, or otherwise refined somehow?
