Ha, Ha, Ha: I'm going bonkers:

I went over to LC 7.1 and attached the Application Browser to an empty 
stack called "AppB" and exported it.


Then I opened the DP7 build 1 version to import the App Browser, and, 
what happens? A copy of the App Browser appears,

even though one does not show up in the menus of the IDE.

So, does that mean the Application Browser is present in LiveCode 8.*.*, 
just made inaccessible via the menu system?


That seems bl**dy silly; it either (preferably) should be there, and 
accessible, or it should be done away with.

Can somebody take a quick look at this API and determine if I might be able
to utilize it via LC calls?

http://strava.github.io/api/

It seems like their authentication process actually loads a webpage and
then redirects the user to another redirected, specified web location.  I
am just trying to retrieve (read-only) data from individual athletes.
Maybe I am missing something here.

The only times we've missed a meeting is when the first Thursday

We've become so used to defaultFolder working that most of us don't do 
as much error-checking as we should.  A lot of us spend way too much 
time last year tracking down what we thought were recursion limits in a 
directory walker when the culprit was simply a defaultFolder assignment 
that didn't take.


To rule that out here I'd add a check of the result with sysError:

on preOpenStack
 set itemDel to "/"
 set the defaultfolder to item 1 to -2 of \
  (the effective fileName of this stack)
 if the result is not empty then
   answer "Couldn't set defaultfolder: "& \
 the result &" ("& sysError()&")"
 end if
end preOpenStack

You may never need it, but if there's a reason that's failing at least 
you'll know what the OS thinks it is.

Four more reports closed as "Resolved - Fixed"

2015-10-05 Thread Richard Gaskin
I've been going through outstanding reports I'd submitted to the bug DB, 
testing them in both the current product version 7.1 and future version 
8.0dp6.


I'm pleased to report that at least four of those were found to have 
already been fixed by the team in the course of other fixes, so I was 
able to close them without further effort needed.


One for good reason for a bug sprint like this is that if each of us 
checks our outstanding bugs I'll bet you'll find at least a few that 
have already been addressed.


The less noise we have in the bug queue, the easier it is for the team 
to focus on the items that truly need their attention.

That seems bl**dy silly; it either (preferably) should be there, and
accessible, or it should be done away with.


If it's done away with I will not be able to move to LC 8 at all. I 
tried to use the Project Browser for a couple of days when it first 
appeared and it was unusable with my current project. There is far too 
much clutter when working with anything other than the simplest of 
stacks, and if you have dozens open at the same time it is impossible 
to quickly locate what you need.


I need the simple, hierarchical listing that the App Browser uses.

Hi everyone,

(zie onder voor de Nederlandse versie van dit bericht)

On Friday 9th October 2015, a LiveCode meeting is organised. At this 
meeting, participants will introduce their own projects and products, 
from amateur to professional, from beginner to advanced. We'll probably 
make more announcements, about talks or presentations, tomorrow.


Participants will get an opportunity to experiment with Arduino. For 
those who aren't too technical, we'll a “workshop” about creating 
capacitive buttons for Arduino (a perfect beginners' project). If you're 
more experienced with electronics, we'll have some materials available 
to experiment with (resistors, cables, LEDs, motors, etc.) If you have 
an Arduino, please bring it with you.


During the meeting, I'll raffle off a copy of “Programming LiveCode for 
the Real Beginner” and a license for Roger Wagner's HyperStudio. Go to 
http://livecodebeginner.economy-x-talk.com for more information about 
the book and to http://www.hyperstudio.com for more information about 
HyperStudio. You also might want to visit http://www.hyperduino.com

Basic grouches about LiveCode 8

2015-10-05 Thread Richmond

1. I seem unable to GROUP a single object.

This is a real pain if one wants to do an IMPORT SNAPSHOT with a drop 
shadow.


Importing the button as a button, rather than within its own group means 
one loses

a DROP SHADOW or a GLOW.

2.  The Application Browser is present in LiveCode 8, but is 
inaccessible from the Menus in the IDE.


As I use the Application Browser a lot of the time I have written a 
'Patch Stack" that will place a button

on the revMenuBar stack to access it:

File and screenshots.

Emulate iOS Mobile Pick Wheel on Mac OS X with LiveCode?

2015-10-05 Thread Rick Harrison
Hi there,

I have an iOS program that uses a really nice
Mobile Pick Wheel to enable the user to 
pick 7 out of 42 possible combinations.

How could I best emulate this Pick Wheel
using LiveCode for a Mac OS X environment?
Should I use 7 option menu LiveCode objects
each with 6 items? Should I build a custom control?

Ideas? Suggestions?

Thanks,

Rick

I think everyone has agreed that the App Browser has to indeed work!

I can’t think that the development team would think otherwise regarding this

It’s a bug, and needs to be fixed.

Could be, I think most of it is because of the docs.

@livecodeali If this is slowing the load of the load of IDE a lot then one 
thing you could do is switch script only stacks to binary stacks during your 
release builds. At that point there’s no longer any benefit to them to being in 
a mergable file format.

I've been writing IDE patchers for myself for months to tidy up things 
that had been sitting in the bug queue for a while (one of which got 
fixed today), and I've always written them to apply the patches on startup.


The nice thing about this approach is that I can have what I want 
without making permanent changes to the IDE.  If I need to revert the 
IDE to its shipping state I just quit, remove my patcher plugin, and 
restart.


I haven't had time to read the IDE scripts in v8 - what exactly is it 
doing on boot?  Is it copying parts from some resource stack, or is 
there some really long script somewhere to create every control and set 
every property?

Think 2011 is the oldest version there.  It starts at 1, then all the
others are named v2, v3 etc.  Think v14 is the hights.  REALLY wish dates
were shown, since there is a slight chance that the alternate version
naming convention is the most recent. (but like I say, that one is declared
a 1, then its 2 and up)

Data grid lines

2015-10-05 Thread Marty Knapp
I'm building a data grid (table style) but instead of having alternate 
row colors, I'd just like a line at the bottom of each row that has 
data. My users will be able to customize various parts of the data grid 
and then, in most cases, it will be printed on a B laser printer. So I 
need a flexible solution. It also needs to be for a table style and not 
form style grid. Is there a way to get a horizontal line for each row?

Mike,

Thanks! I found it. We have our licenses managed under 1 account, but
assigned to various individuals. I had to login as an individual instead
of the management account to see the activation links. Unfortunately,
the popup list only list versions back to LC6.0.0, so I guess I will

Re: ON NOW! Ask me about LiveCode Builder during the Global Jam!

I got Steven (our marketing guy whose been managing the invites) to 
check and you've definitely been sent an invite email. Can you see if 
you have an invitation from 'slack' (the messaging system we're using to 
run the jam) in your spam folder?


Thanks!

Mark.

Hi Mark,

Did you get an e-mail with your invitation to the Slack team?  I 
checked, and you've definitely been invited.


You can log into the Slack instance directly using this URL:

https://livecodepublic.slack.com/

I think we have Trevor's webinar coming up in 30 minutes or so.

See my other email - I didn't get an invite, either, although I'm sitting
on the page, watching...

Re: scheduling

Sounds like a job for a standalone app that accepts messages.

Probably the easiest way would be to have a send loop running, and see if
any jobs (whatever you want to call it) are due yet.  If you keep the jobs
sorted you can check the next one in queue, and if its not time for it to
fire yet, none of them are, so loop.   If it IS time, keep checking the
list until you hit a job that isn't due yet. then loop again.

Re: IPV6...

2015-10-05 Thread Bob Sneidar
No I mean IPV6. The protocol is running on almost everything concurrent with 
IPV4, although IPV4 still seems to be preferred. I see it on every network 
device created in the last 5 or 6 years, maybe longer.
