Thank you all very much indeed. I can confirm that the "[[:^ascii:]]" worked perfectly for me (I didn't try the one with the single brackets) and the simple use of match regex also worked like a charm. Thanks again for helping me fix this annoying issue. James -- Sent from:

Thanks for your help with this Narinder I'm still struggling, mostly because I don't know how to use Regex properly. None of the regex patterns I can find online for removing emojis seem to work at all. I would be quite happy just to restrict the text to alphanumeric and the kind of special

Thank you for that really helpful response which explains the problem. I've also heard direct from 4D Japan's Keisuke Miyako who wrote the component, who has very promptly sent a revised version of the component. Thanks again -- Sent from: http://4d.1045681.n5.nabble.com/4D-Tech-f1376241.html

Unsure if anyone on here uses 4d-component-sendmail? I've found it works well but have an issue when sending an attachment. At the receiving end, the attachment appears without a hitch on a desktop client like Apple Mail, but on a mobile iOS device there is no sign of the attachment at all. It

Thanks for the pointers to the blog; surprised 4D doesn't just reverse out in white when a non-standard text colour is used. But it doesn't… Thanks again. -- Sent from: http://4d.1045681.n5.nabble.com/4D-Tech-f1376241.html **

Re: Mac OS 10.14 Mojave and 4D 15

I just tried running 4D 15.6 (4D, not a built app) on a Mac with Mojave and it just crashed on launch. I'm not using Webkit, in fact I only launched it with the standard plugins. So I don't really know what to do, other than start down the 4D upgrade route which I was hoping to put off for a

Thanks for your replies on this. Am I correct in saying that 4D v15 still doesn't allow the setting of a path relative to the user's home folder? ie "~/folder/application.4dd" If that's the case, I'm still no further forward :-( My plan is for each user to have their own copy of the data file

I'm not on v16 yet. Does this not work in v15? The tech tip says it works from 15.4. Is there no way to get a built application to remember the location of the data file between application upgrades? cheers James -- Sent from: http://4d.1045681.n5.nabble.com/4D-Tech-f1376241.html

OK great, thank you. That worked. So now I can install my app successfully inside the /Applications folder and not get permission errors or crashes. Next problem - it won't save the location of the 4D Data file between installations. The first time I launch, I show it where the data file is

OK so the answer to "does Dropbox add extended attributes" was obviously a resounding "yes". So I copied my structure, plug-ins and components into my local user folder, ditched the extended attributes using "xattr -cr " and re-built. Then I ran "xattr -lr " to see what I was left with. I got

Thanks Tim This got me further down the line, I now know that the problem is "resource fork, Finder information, or similar detritus not allowed" However, I have no idea how to prevent 4D from adding such detritus to the built app! Following the link in the tech note, I executed "xattr -cr "

Thanks for your replies to this. I will experiment with signing BUT I really don't think this is the issue, for 2 reasons: 1. I've had this problem since before Gatekeeper was invented. 2. I'm familiar with the Gatekeeper dialogs and this isn't one of them. Gatekeeper would normally prevent the
