Re: A weird bug/occurrence

Hi Geoff,

I happen to see disappearing controls in a standalone from time to time. The 
funny thing is that a white rectangle seems to be drawn in the space where the 
control should be. Did you happen to report this as a bug already?

All the best,

Malte

Sounds like you are getting some kind of screen redraw bug. That being said, 
one thing that can cause controls to not be seen is if they are in a locked 
group, and having Select Grouped set to select individual controls, if you drag 
the items in a group outside the locked boundaries of that group they become 
invisible. 

Try setting Select Grouped Controls the copy all the controls on the card to a 
new card in a new stack. See if your redraw issue occurs then. If not, it’s 
something in the card or stack that is causing this. If so, then begin deleting 
one control at a time until the problem goes away.

 Just experienced this again -- downloaded LC 6.6, opened the stack, half
 the controls on the page were missing. This time I was prepared. I opened
 navigator, selected the arrow tool, and started clicking lines in
 navigator. Again, no group, no properties being changed -- navigator just
 changes the selected controls. But as I changed the selection, objects
 started popping into view as they were selected. No idea what's going on,
 submitting a bug.
 
 ...and they disappeared again.

A weird bug/occurrence

2014-03-20 Thread Geoff Canyon
I was trying to make a copy of a stack to take on the road, by:

1. Saving the stack and closing LC on one Mac. (mountain lion, LC 6.5.2)
2. Copying the stack to a USB drive.
3. Copying the stack to another Mac (Mavericks, LC 6.5.2)

I opened the stack, and saw what I thought was an earlier revision -- half
of one card, with fields and buttons I had added, was missing.

I repeated several times, and no luck. I took it as some way that I was
copying the wrong file (a backup, perhaps) and decided to live with it,
because I was out of time.

Later, on the Mavericks mac, I was modifying that stack. I had taken
several steps toward re-building what I had lost, when POP everything
appeared. literally just wasn't there, then it was.

It wasn't a single group (which could have been invisible, then visible).

It wasn't the whole card.

It was several controls -- fields and buttons -- loose on the card, that
somehow were invisible, or inaccessible, and then came back. Unfortunately
I never thought to look using Navigator to see if the miscreant items were
invisible or really (seemingly) not there.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

Hi Geoff,
have you a fusion drive on your Mac ?

Because on mine, with fusion drive, I have experienced some strange 
behavior, and ... not only with LiveCode ...


I think there is some sneaky issue with updates of caches on Mavericks 
with fusion drive ...
