Re: Help LEP macOS to open the Emoji viewer
which version of macOS? the code is not allowed in Terminal on Mojave; osascript is not allowed to send keystrokes (1002) https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/9lwlsv/script_editor_not_allowed_to_send_keystrokes/ on top of that, to grant automation to 4D, you must have a specific key info.plist and --deep --sign the app again. c.f. https://github.com/miyako/4d-utility-build-application also, you need to be in application mode, because the edit menu in design mode does not have that menu item. finally, the keyboard shortcut does not seem to work, even manually (I had to click the menu item) I am not sure it is possible to invoke the palette this way. ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: https://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech Unsub: mailto:4d_tech-unsubscr...@lists.4d.com **
Help LEP macOS to open the Emoji viewer
Hi,
I like to display the charmap from macOS to allow the insert of special chars
in Write Pro.
When I paste this in terminal it works
osascript -e 'tell app "System Events" to keystroke space using
{control down, command down}‘
When I try this with LEP, nothing happens, what I’m doing wrong ?
$cgiScript:="osascript -e 'tell app \"System Events\" to
keystroke space using {control down, command down}'"
LAUNCH EXTERNAL PROCESS($cgiScript;$vt_in;$vt_Out;$vt_err)
Thanks Armin

CONVERT PICTURE v17
I have some legacy pictures fields with .PICT pictures in them in my Windows database that I am converting to v17 64 bit. Here is my code to convert the pictures to JPG format. ALL RECORDS([DOCC_Document]) For ($i;1;Records in selection([DOCC_Document])) GOTO SELECTED RECORD([DOCC_Document];$i) GET PICTURE FORMATS([DOCC_Document]Document_Icon;$aTPictureFormats) CONVERT PICTURE([DOCC_Document]Document_Icon;".jpg") SAVE RECORD([DOCC_Document]) End for The documentation suggests that this would convert the pictures in the database to jpg format and they would lose the "ugly big cross on PICT" replacement icon. But I see no changes. I must be doing something fundamentally wrong... Any ideas?
