Re: SVG_New_textArea OR SVG_New_tspan

Hi All, Never mind about the last comment. The solution needs to be applying to each text area NOT to the SVG document. Here’s the correct way for each line: $Dom_text:=SVG_New_textArea ($svgRef;$Txt_buffer;0;0) SVG_SET_TEXT_ANCHOR ($Dom_text;Align center) This create the beginning of this

Re: SVG_New_textArea OR SVG_New_tspan

Hi All, So building a TSpan text variable and passing it $Dom_text:=SVG_New_textArea ($svgRef;$Txt_buffer;400;400) Works in terms of all the text and it seem that it is placed at the left/top. However, I cannot figure out how to get all the text lines to align center. ""+$chartInfo{$ndx}+""

Re: SVG Extracted to clip or png

Hi Peter, I think what might work best is to create a “starter” SVG object with all the contained within. I’ll save it to disk and load as needed. Then when I extract the I’ll insert the into that sag doc and it should work. In this case I have over 120 glyphs (sag images) that I preload

Re: SVG Extracted to clip or png

Hi Peter, Ah yes thanks, I tend to forget that an SVG doc is in XML format. Sometimes the solution winds up being so simple in 4D. If the SVG doc uses for displaying various glyphs in the object I would assume that I need to also bring those into the doc? Appreciate, John… > Just use a

Re: SVG Eetracted to clip or png

Just use a XML commands and copy the node to another SVG files. AS SVG files are XML documents, you can use any XML DOM commands to manipulate SVG files. Something like $group:=DOM Find XML element by ID(oldSVGImage;$groupID) If (OK=1) $newEl:=DOM Append XML element(newSVGImage;$group) end if

Re: atom/st indent/lex file

I'm working on something for TextMate and/or BBEdit. I'll post it, hopefully in the next week or two. Note 4D is a lot more difficult to syntax color than other languages because you can't disambiguate many tokens without the structure file information. Having "code with tokens" helps

Re: SVG_New_textArea OR SVG_New_tspan

John, I find textAreas easier to work with for those purposes. The only drawback is that the textArea is not supported by some browsers. I'll see some documents appear without their text in Safari when textArea is being used. Keith - CDI > On Feb 28, 2020, at 10:18 AM, John J Foster via

I'm not aware of any built-in feature to do that. I would export a copy to 4D 18 project mode and use something like BBEdit or TextMate where you have grep and other features. John DeSoi, Ph.D. > On Feb 28, 2020, at 9:43 AM, Mike Kerner via 4D_Tech <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> > wrote: > > 4d 17

Hi All, I have an SVG Doc which contains many grouped objects. Each group has a unique ID (name). Sometimes I’d like to click on a part of the document, corresponding to a grouped object, and have it sent to the clipboard or saved as a png. Just the part of the document clicked on. Is there

atom/st indent/lex file

has anyone generated a grammar/lex/indent file for ST or atom for 4D? -- On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth On the second day, God created the oceans. On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours, and did a little diving. And God said, "This is good."

customize find results

4d 17 is there a way to customize the way objects display in the find results? if you do a find in database for some code, you get a list, but the list includes things in the format formname.objectname which isn't very helpful when objectname is "field2", because that's what 4d named the object

You guys solved it.  I had created my v18 test databases as database projects instead of databases.  Database Projects appear to be new and I’ll have to read up on them.  I knew that 4D v18 was introducing a way to manage code in a non-binary format, but I did not know the details. Thanks,
