Actually this started with macOS 10.14.4. According to Dan Halbert, "Apple 
changed how USB devices are recognized on certain Macs", creating a timing

Catalina and stuff other than 32bit

[Dar Scott Consulting via use-livecode]

Catalina does not recognize the bootloader for atmega32u4 Arduino boards such 
as Leonardo. The IDE 1.8.10 avr toolchain works (64-bit); this is not related 
to 32-bit. 

Catalina does not recognize the AdaFruit Feather ...BOOT drives. Actually this 
started with macOS 10.14.4. According to Dan Halbert, "Apple changed how USB 
devices are recognized on certain Macs", creating a timing problem. AdaFruit 
has a fix.

There are some indications that some USB devices made with Jan Atkinson's 
examples are having problems on Catalina on some hardware.

I don't know if Apple is stepping outside USB specs or is pushing the specs. Or 
whether the small board community has been spec-lax.

Re: Set font dynamically to fit text

[Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami via use-livecode]

Dan: Thanks for the handler!

Ralph: Actually that last solution offered was fromr Dan Friedman not mine. 
Can you put your two handlers on the list?  " I also have an option to fit 
either by height or width." 

Doc Hawk:  I give in , " Font scaling itself is nonlinear enough, but the way 
margins scale with font size is downright psychotic " that's two unknowns in 
the equation. So iterationis required



Ralph wrote
I use the same technique as BR with a couple of diffs. I originally went down 
by 1's like BR but changed it for increased performance. I set the textsize to 
a large number(I like BR's initial size option) I then go down by 8s, add 7, 
down by 4s, add 3, down by 2s, add 1 finally down by ones until it fits. Each 
of the 4 loops has a check for min size so it down not go down below 2. I guess 
2 is too low but it's been working.
I also have an option to fit either by height or width.

Re: launch & quit

[Curry Kenworthy via use-livecode]

Robert:

> Have you tried to switch off messages before quit?

Yes - get angry and then quit with prejudice. Lock messages, unload 
libraries, close stacks, etc, and really QUIT! :)


Also, consider an alternate approach to launching the second app, so 
that shell doesn't keep your first app hanging
