Setting behaviors in 9.0.2

[J. Landman Gay via use-livecode]

Is anyone else unable to set a behavior on an object in LC 9.0.2? 
Neither script, nor message box, nor property inspector will do it for 
me with the possible exception of a button on the same card. I'm not 
using script-only stacks, just buttons which are sometimes in another 
stack in use.


This is such a basic requirement that I'm wondering if it's just me.

Re: Setting behaviors in 9.0.2

Interesting, I hadn't thought of that. I'd think a memory leak would cause 
a crash instead of unusual behavior, though I've had a few crashes too. A 
couple of weeks ago I got a kernal panic, the first I've ever seen. Working 
with the client on the same stack, she got a kernal panic too. Neither of 
us have seen it since and I wasn't sure if it really was LC's fault. I get 
the feeling this is going to be a hard thing to track down.

I had, especially when developing or using widgets, several
strange effects. For example changed scripts worked not before
saving 2-3 times and closing the script editor.
Sometimes also closing and removing a stack from memory and reopening
didn't work.

But everything ALWAYS worked as expected when relaunching LC 9.
Or when doing the same thing in LC 8!

I started to denote such strange scenarios for a report.

Images and Players in "background" groups

[Tim Selander via use-livecode]

For the first time ever, probably, I have a little project that 
needs the HC "stack of cards" structure.


Have a few buttons and fields in a group, acting a a background 
and it all works as expected.


However, I also have an image and a play in the group/background. 
Oddly, when I set one card's image via "set the filename of image 
to URL" it puts that image or video on ALL the cards.


So the bg flds can all have different values per card, but the 
images and players cannot!


Is this right?? I have searched the dictionary and google to no 
avail

Re: Images and Players in "background" groups

[Peter Bogdanoff via use-livecode]

Hi Tim,

That would be correct. To have a different image on every card, you could:

1. Have an image control that’s not part of the group on every card 
or
2. Some other method of dynamically loading the image data into an image that 
is part of the group, such as on openCard:

put URL tURL into image “My Image" of this card

where tURL is a path to a local or remote file.

Player controls would use similar methods as above.

Re: Images and Players in "background" groups

[Peter Bogdanoff via use-livecode]

Images and players don’t have a “shared” property to turn on and off such as a 
field’s sharedText or a button’s sharedHilite property.

They’re always shared.

Re: Setting behaviors in 9.0.2

[Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode]

I´ve made a quick test and set the behaviour of a card to the script of a 
button.
This works here on Mac OS X with LC 9.0.2 Business.

Re: Setting behaviors in 9.0.2

[J. Landman Gay via use-livecode]

Thanks. Something apparently went awry, seems okay now. The script editor 
was also behaving strangely and is now better. Odd. I'm glad I asked here 
before making a bug report.

Re: Setting behaviors in 9.0.2

[hh via use-livecode]

I think this is not related especially to behaviors.
There is possibly something going wrong with the memory management
of LC 9.

I had, especially when developing or using widgets, several
strange effects. For example changed scripts worked not before
saving 2-3 times and closing the script editor.
Sometimes also closing and removing a stack from memory and reopening
didn't work.

But everything ALWAYS worked as expected when relaunching LC 9.
Or when doing the same thing in LC 8!

I started to denote such strange scenarios for a report.

Thanks for testing Matthias. It must have been a temporary thing, I 
relaunched LC and now it works. Something got out of order I guess.
