That would break so many scripts. The great thing about word and token is they are NOT items. Items are delimited by any single character you want, but that is their limitation, a single character. A word, a trueWord (= LC7) and a token are not delimited by a single character but by a range of one or more characters which have been predefined. If you want something new... a chunk, then the ability to specify it's delimiter as a range of characters that are either single of combined *could* be a valid enhancement. * Haven't really thought about it enough to come up with drawbacks, all I know is I DON'T want the wordDelim to be a space and to create another chunk type that is identical to an item seems counter productive to me. ___ 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

Old Stacks Acting Strange
I have a stack (actually thousands of them) that were created in LiveCode (then RevEnterprise) 4.0.0. They are used in several apps we have including an iPad app. Do to the issues with LC and iOS 8, I need to make an update to the iPad app with LC 6.6.4. I opened my project this morning in 6.6.4, and the old stacks are displaying really messed up! Some controls show, others don't. If you select a control it sometimes then appears on the screen. Weird! It's messing everything up! Oddly enough, it appears correctly in the iPad Simulator (Simulator Version 8.0)? Go figure? I went back to version 4.0.0, and the stack opens perfectly. It opened correctly in LC 6.1.3, but failed in LC 6.5.1 and later. Anyone know what changed? And, more importantly, is there a way to resurrect these older stacks in 6.6.4?

Re: Old Stacks Acting Strange
Good Morning Over the last 6 years I have added about 40 apps to iTunes and reduced this down to the current 21. All was working correctly until IOS 8 was released. It appears that all 21 apps may now be broken! When the app opens it immediately shuts down. So far 2 apps were reported with this behavior, but I think it might affect all my apps. I researching to see if there are other developers seeing this same issue. Your comments today point to an issue that may be of concern to all developers where older apps may not continue to function. I am going to search the developer forum for Apple to see if this is a bug or change in the IOS 8 where apps will display issues.

Re: LiveCode 6.6.4 RC3
Hi Mike. I opened this to see what someone was responding to concerning LiveCode 6.6.4 RC3 and got a post about preOpenStack instead! LOL! preOpenStack is a tricky beast. Since it’s prior to the stack opening, certain things will not be in place, so things won’t function the way you might expect. This is especially true with standalones. There were some good posts about this, particularly from Jacque in the past. Check the archives for details.

Re: problem with counting words
Yeah, I don't think word was considered during the discussion. Multiple delimiters might be a good idea but it feels like you'd have to know which delimiter had been encountered. For example, if you had a string like this: a=1,b=2,c=3 and you wanted to unpack it with: repeat for each item ritem delimited by =, doStuff end repeat You'd probably need to know which delimiter had been encountered to distinguish between the left and right sides of the = character. The main intent behind delimited by was to do away with having to keep resetting the itemdelimiter, e.g repeat for each item rItem1 delimited by = do stuff with ritem1 repeat for each item rItem2 delimited by , do stuff with ritem2 end repeat end repeat Pete lcSQL Software http://www.lcsql.com Home of lcStackBrowser http://www.lcsql.com/lcstackbrowser.html and SQLiteAdmin http://www.lcsql.com/sqliteadmin.html On Tue, Oct 14, 2014 at 9:31 AM, Ralph DiMola rdim...@evergreeninfo.net wrote: That would be a great enhancement. +1 A collection of delimiters(item list?) would be needed to even emulate the current word chunk.

Re: LiveCode 6.6.4 RC3
Hmm. This is getting more interesting. Now it seems that maybe the splash screen isn't important, but if you have answer dialog in the openStack handler, or the preOpenStack handler, you get the hang. If I use put instead, I get output in the log. once the card loads, I can use answer, and it seems to work.

Hi Mathias, No more than the ones that you will be able to use from within the standard iDE as long as you insert your own trace tags in your server’s stack code, mainly as « return it/the result » ones. To the end, you will see how easy it’s to go and, more than that, if your server’s stacks use a MVC design and an SQL back-end for data storage. To the end, your server’s stacks are going to become so lightweight that there will no be place anymore for bugs ;D Note 1: on the yearly average time i spend in LC n-tier development tasks, 90% of the time is spent in client-side (web, mobile, desktop) modeling/coding and 10% in about server-side stacks and SQL modeling/coding. Note 2 : any server’s stack intended to serve web apps will never being best build than in using the fantastic Ralf Bitter's Revigniter port of the PHP’s CodeIgniter framework.

Hello, I've had this situation before and had it again today, which cost me a couple of hours. I dragged a new scrolling field onto my stack and named it myInput. I hit Ctrl C and Ctrl V to copy it. I dragged the new field to a new position and named it myOutput. Somehow (I'm not sure how) I ended up with 2 fields named myInput one right over the top of the other one. Then I put some text into the top myInput (not realizing there was a bottom one) and tried to do some stuff. What was happening, is that LC was looking at the bottom (1st) field myInput and there was no text in that one. So, of course, I got very strange behavior and used up a good portion of my rock collection. Here is what I wish for: (and I do not know how to officially make the request, and this is where someone can help) If I am so ignorant or unattentive ? to make such a blunder, it would be really wonderful for LC to pop up a warning saying something like, Hey Larry! Wake Up! You already have a field named myInput!!! Know what I mean?

Thanks for the info, Warren. The problem with me using that solution is in your answer. You wrote, If the command is still installed in OS X And that is the issue with using shell commands in software you intend to market. For your own personal use if it works then that is great but the shell command might not always be there and then a program that was using it will fail.

You'll see that the buttons line up to form a 4x4 group all as 1 px lines as the buttons overlap each other. But, the generated PDF is not the same. It shows the lines side by side. Is there some setting I am missing? LiveCode 6.6.4 rc2 Mac OSX 10.9.5 Same results on iOS 8 Any thoughts?

RE: PDF Results Not As Expected
Make sure its not the reader. Try zooming in and out and see if things change. PDFs are not pixel accurate due to rounding and precision errors.

Vector stroke gradient subtle rendering bug
Please check and comment about this bug report: http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13672 Recently, while importing some SVG files with gradients (created using Inkscape), I found a bug while rendering gradients in vector graphics. The same code produce two opposite, incomplete and incorrect results on LiveCode 6.1.2 and LiveCode 6.5 (or later). I used an Alpha version of the stack SVGL plus Gradients to import two small SVG files, included within linked zip file. Please notice: this Alpha version is incomplete and just must be used to test this very specific vector gradient bug. Text from attached stack. (Stack also includes images and vector graphics): (CARD 1) To the Left, a vector graphic imported into Livecode from a file named gradient05.svg using LiveCode 6.1.2 on Ubuntu Linux. To the Right, a png bitmap screenshot of the same file gradient05.svg opened in Google Chrome. Notice: Stroke Gradient renders correctly, but Fill Gradient renders in the wrong place. Click the button Go next Card to watch how LiveCode 6.5 and later renders the same file. (CARD 2) To the Left, a vector graphic imported into Livecode from a file named gradient05.svg using LiveCode 6.6.2 on Ubuntu Linux. To the Right, a png bitmap screenshot of the same file gradient05.svg opened in Google Chrome. Notice, Fill Gradient now renders correctly, while Stroke Gradient renders in the wrong place. Check the attached zip file that includes two LiveCode stacks and two small SVG files (created with InkScape). Inside the zipped file, there are two simple SVG files that you could import into LiveCode 6.1.2 and LiveCode 6.5 or later (including version 7) to compare the differences. It's a VERY subtle rendering bug, but effectively will cause many headaches if you are trying to import SVG files with gradients. I have included (among the linked files) an Alpha version of the original SVGL stack with code to import ONLY Inkscape gradients.
