Re: Lock screen and animated gif

[Antti Ilola via use-livecode]

How about changing the mouse cursor. I found below about using a lock
screen.
" The only exception to this (freeze window) is the mouse cursor. It
continues to move with the mouse and any changes to the cursor icon (like set
cursor to busy) do appear."

Re: ProtonMail vs Apple

If Apple is so horrible, why do you do software to them and I think that
Apple has no monopoly, since Android shares 85% of the phone market.

Is it the time to you to get the system date work.I have done everything I
found your guide, but no avail, every time english date. I made it a bug
report since version 6 was announced. and still it doesn't work. Now I'm
using Mac OS 10.10 and 10.11 in Finnish. Today I tired SperCard for fun and
even it I got finnish date without any larger measures, just "answer the
date" and that's it. And it is not the only software which understands the
finnish date, for example Xcode and Xojo knows how it should be display.
You made many wondrous things into your software, but simple as date won't
work. I think there are many people in this world who use different date
form than english.

Re: [RANT] Really annoying posts

[Antti Ilola]

I'm not fluent in English or even in Scottish, because I'm Finnish (two
n's). Still I think, I understood enough what Richmond told about
contemporary youth and I definitely agree.
I found that they discuss with phones and if it is not in Google its even
exists. Richmond, when it's time to change our nappies again, I think we
have to do it by ourselves.

 What worries me is that when I click on the Documentation icon on the bar
 at the top I don't
 get an avatar of Elvis in a little window who explains points of Livecode
 set to the music of
 hits sung by the King himself.

 Shame on you, Kevin; we want Elvis . . . let the protests begin :)

Re: LiveCode Commercial License

[Antti Ilola]

  RunRev has never charged royalties. If you create an app with a licensed
 copy of LiveCode, you can sell that app forever, even after your license
 expires. However, after your LiveCode license expires, you will no longer
 be able to release commercial copies of a newly built standalone, because
 your copy of LiveCode would revert to the open-source version



I think this is true if you have a license version 6.0 onwards.

  Anyone else?
