Re: iPadding around? Video glasses (OT)
Marian, Whilst I'm sure 'effective' LCD 3D goggles would effect sales of massive home LCD TVs, I'm not sure what it's effect on mobile devices would be - other than make them more popular. Without goggles one of the attractions of the iPad must be screen size, but this is not only as an output, but is also advantageous as an input device. I've been amazed at what people have been able to do with the iPhone, so it will be interesting to see what iPad adds to the table. Just off the top of my head I could think the same 'tilt' technology could be incorporated into Apple's iSee goggles (you read it here first) to produce an amazing simulation set up. In medicine for instance, looking forward you could see a 3D magnified image of the brain, whilst tilting your head and looking down, you'd see an image of the iPad, with representations of where your fingers were resting on the screen where the controls for adjusting magnification, navigation, or even bring up a menu to pick another organ to inspect. Not only that, I can't see too many people wearing goggles to read an eBook whilst they commute to work on the subway. You wont see the small white well dressed nearing retirement age lady* approaching, who snatches your goggles and runs. *to avoid offending most on the List I've taken the politically correct stance of avoiding any racially or sexually stereotypical references to my subway mugger. To the well-heeled sexagenarian Caucasoid petite females who commute to Lower Manhattan, Sorry.

Personally I wouldn't recommend it because depending on the user's level and how the UAC is set up on their system, they could be prompted, EVERY single time they launch your app as to whether or not to allow the app to run. Also, if your app is designed to auto launch on boot (or login of a user), it will get relegated to a "blocked startup programs" icon in the System Tray and the user will have to right-click on the icon and select your app and say run and then they will still get the security dialog asking them to allow the app to run. Better to just address any security issues you become aware of directly.

It's probably better to do this anyway... I think I commented on this thread early on saying I never saw this problem, although I was not creating and dropping parts of the schema from Rev. But when I saw your "fix" I quickly realized that because I was using irev scripts to connect to the DBs and irev scripts are not persistent, it is necessary for me to connect to the DB each time. So, of course, I wouldn't have the same experience as you. The other thing I might note that I noticed is that when you use irev scripts and connecting each time at the beginning of the irev script, the irev (Rev DB) connection ID is always "1" Aloha from Hawaii, Jim Bufalini ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Yes, I laud the upgrade to Intel, it was totally a wise decision. It's just that the $$ I have in my two-screen media monster here is REALLY becoming depressingly obsolete. ProTools HD (original PCI cards) has stopped supporting G5s after the last version 8.01. It's been 9 years with those cards, a pretty good run for this kins of stuff.

Re: on-rev queries
Bob, on my last project I had some time-outs issues - I thought at the time it was more 'economical' to keep the connection open for multiple queries and I spend a whole bunch of energy making a "pinger" to keep the connection open -- That was probably true for the 65 or so rapid fire queries I was doing for a special app; open , do 65 queries, close. But I found that leaving the connection open all the time was really pointless - there isn't that much latency in the opening and closing of connections - most of the time is spent funneling textual data to the client - the database. In the end I now think that closing often is good - it releases the server when not needed. - Stephen Barncard San Francisco http://houseofcubes.com/disco.irev On 4 February 2010 16:05, Bob Sneidar wrote: > Hi Jim. > > Thanks for the info.

Re: on-rev queries
Hi Jim. Thanks for the info. I'm always in the hunt for a good mySQL utility. The original post was really about what happens when on-rev drops the connection due to an idle timeout. What happens is, the communication between Revolution fails, but it takes close to 10 minutes for Revolution to stop beach balling. This may or may not be typical of all mySQL servers, but when I ran all this on a local mySQL server I did not have these timeout problems. I was alerted right away that the connection was bad. My particular application merges and syncs two databases with each other, so it becomes important to create and drop tables automatically, as well as insert columns and such. So simply using a utility to do these things will not get me there. My fix of always connecting at the beginning of every script that needs access, and disconnecting at the end of every script that made the connection works for now. It's probably better to do this anyway, as we have an online grading system at our K-12 school that requires persistent connections, and fails if anything glitches or burps on the network. I can never reset the routers or switches during school hours without incurring the wrath of school admins. :-) Thanks.

Re-2: little OT: Did anyone from Germany receive the Conference DVDset, yet?
Hm, if it think of that the sets are now shipped since more than 3 weeks and there are so many not yet shipped ... Then how many sets were sold? There must be thousands and thousands or is the logistics company, which is doing the shipment for Runrev, a one person company, which is not able to ship more than 5 or 10 a day? Do they have to burn the DVDs before shipment? Slowly but surely i will lose my patience about that. A good logistics company, even a small one, should be able to send about 300 - 500 packages a day.

Re: parental control problems - Mac OS X
For anyone interested in this, I'm not sure what changed between Rev 3.0 and Rev 4.0, but this problem seems to disappear when building our standalone with Rev 4.0. We first discovered that the problem only occurred when building for Universal Binary. An Intel-only build did not have the problem (that was with Rev 3.0). So we decided at that point just to try a build with Rev 4.0 (Universal Binary) and that seemed to work just fine. Not the most ideal solution, as we had to do a special build to send to some customers, but at least we found a solution. Just thought I'd let you all know. And thanks to all those who replied with suggestions. Chris On Jan 28, 2010, at 3:13 PM, Chris Sheffield wrote: > Honestly, I wish that were the case, but I don't think so.

Re: AW: open substack flickering despite lockscreen
Hi Tiemo, Add a preopenstack handler to the stack that you want to display modally, and in this handler, set the location you want the stack to occupy. When the stack opens up, before you see it it positions itself in the location you supplied, so: on preopenstack global tLocX,tLocY --or some other way of passing the location you want - a custom property of the stack perhaps? set the left of stack "lizenzinfo" to tLocX set the top of stack "lizenzinfo" to tLocY end preopenstack then when you use the command modal stack "lizenzinfo" your stack will be displayed at tLocX and tLocY On 4 Feb 2010, at 14:01, Klaus Major wrote: > Hi Tiemo, > >> Hi Klaus, >> >> there is a saying "don't halloo, before you are out of the wood" > > ???

AW: open substack flickering despite lockscreen
Hi Klaus, there is a saying "don't halloo, before you are out of the wood" When using just: set the left of stack "lizenzinfo" to tLocX set the top of stack "lizenzinfo" to tLocY modal stack "lizenzinfo" the setting of the loc seems to be ineffective, The stack just opens at the default center position. When opening the stack, before setting the loc, as in my first approach, the positioning works, but the flickering. Any idea what's wrong?

open substack flickering despite lockscreen
Hello, I want to open a substack modal at the loc of the mouse. Everything works, beside there is a flickering, when opening the substack and positioning it at the mouse loc despide of having a lockscreen. For a moment of a second the stack appears at his default loc and then it appears at my wanted position. So there must be a fault in my following approach: set the lockscreen to true open stack "lizenzinfo" set the left of stack " lizenzinfo" to tLocX set the top of stack " lizenzinfo" to tLocY modal stack "lizenzinfo" set the lockscreen to false The reason for using first "open" and afterwords "modal" was, that I couldn't change the position, when opening it with modal, as far as I remember my code. Why does the lockscreen doesn't seem to be affective? What am I doing wrong?

The flag becomes unset. Unfortunately I can't work out what is going on, because I have XP and Vista, and the former doesn't report that property. Nevertheless, setting it on Vista, then creating an install on XP and installing back on Vista loses the flag somewhere along the way. Darn it. It just doesn't seem very professional when you ask people to start twiddling within Vistas under-garments.

Flash & mouseclicks in Revbrowser
Hi all, I found that most of the time you need to doubleclick(!) Flash elements (e.g. the movie controls in Youtube videos) when in a Revbrowser, but the intended single clicks in a "normal" Browser like Safari or FireFox. Know what I mean?

Linux, Rev and dependencies ?
Goofy types like myself just pop RunRev onto an already installed linux distro; and either it works or it doesn't. How can one work out what dependencies (if any) one requires if one is to do a "home brew"? Err . . . does www.runrev.com have a nifty little page where the dependencies are listed? Ah, I thought not! Actually, come to think of it, it would be jolly nice if one could have a way to list any application's dependencies without waiting for apt-get or what-have-you to announce what they are as it is merrily bloating your system with stuff which had you realised all that were involved you would not have installed in the first place! And, while I'm here; I installed Metacard on PPC Ubuntu the other day and, having swapped over the LinuxPPC engine could not get the thing to work. All of this derived from: http://www.hot.com.my/metacard/ bright thought welcomed! Secondly; LinuxPPC builds built on x86 Linux seemd only to work when they were inside the MC folder on Linux PPC, but not on the desktop - doesn't seem quite right! ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: More on Performance

More on Performance
I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions for maximizing the responsiveness of controls during a tight "send in..." loop. I just discovered an odd (but perhaps expected?) relationship between the send command and locking the screen. It seems that placing "send in..." within a handler that locks and unlocks the screen significantly increases screen refresh performance compared to executing the send AFTER unlocking the screen. I suppose this might be due to Rev being able to cue the next send before updating the screen but I would have expected send to operate independently of the screen update. At first I was thrilled to uncover this, as I've spent the last day trying to enhance the performance of a heavily animated stack, but I was quickly disappointed to find that controls on the card become extremely sluggish and less responsive when the send occurs before the screen unlock. For example, a custom slider bogs down heavily and doesn't respond properly, compared to when the send occurs AFTER the screen unlock. I tried creating a temporary condition (controlActive) that is established when a control is clicked, which the send handler could check and then adjust the timing of the unlock screen appropriately. But so far I'm not seeing any change in the (poor) behavior. I will continue testing. Has anybody else run into this?

Re: Polygonflow: clockwise or counter-clockwise?
Thanks to Jeff and Alex for your replies Alex, your script worked perfectly. Thanks I needed to do the check in two cases: 1. I needed to calculate the area of multiple polygons by "stringing" them together in one superpolygon. If they did'nt have the same flowdirection the calculation would be wrong. 2. If you need to string two polygons together and one is to act as a punch-out for the first, the two polygons must have opposite flowdirection. Otherwise the area will be wrong. It is so easy to see the direction, but relatively difficult to calculate the direction. Thanks again to both of you.
