Re: PRINT SETTINGS Not setting OK to 1

Hey Tim (et al), Some curious facts: 1. Placing PRINT SETTINGS in the on load works and returns OK=1 if Print or PDF selected. 2. Once the form is loaded and a button is clicked - really any button - the same PRINT SETTINGS command will be equal to 0 (zero) no matter what is selected. 3.

Re: Windows Build - STR# 10135, 18/19 Folders

Hi Allan, > Did you ever get to the bottom of this? Not that I recall. I discovered that I could just go inside the folder and use the compiled app. However, I have been using 4D v17R5 and I don’t see it anymore. And I’m not sure when it stopped being created? Sorry I can’t be more help

Re: PRINT SETTINGS Not setting OK to 1

Hey Tim, So created a new db with only this code appears to work: PRINT SETTINGS If (OK=1) ALERT("Print!") Else ALERT("Cancelled!") End if So there is something in our application that has caused this behavior. So I’ll have to figure a way to troubleshoot. I guess that’s

Re: PRINT SETTINGS Not setting OK to 1

Hi Tim (et al), This is just weird! If I trace it and look to see the value of the OK button it’s alway zero. If I place this code: PRINT SETTINGS If (OK=1) ALERT("Print OK=1") Else ALERT("Cancel OK=0") End if It correctly displays ALERT("Print OK=1”) although in TRACE OK=0.

PRINT SETTINGS Not setting OK to 1

Hi All, We are running 4D v17.2 64-bit on Windows 10 pro and we have noticed that… PRINT SETTINGS is Not setting OK to 1 And thus code and pronging is not happening. I’m not sure if it’s everywhere or just in the single method? Nothing fancy about the code: QUERY([Reports];[Reports]Rep Set

Re: Making a package of a built Mac volume desktop

Hi Paul, I am using the same Mac 4D v17r5 (standalone) and the volume desktop build creates an application compete with everything required inside of it. For example after the build my applications is named: myApp.app If I double-click it will indeed open as expected. If we go deeper into

RE: Making a package of a built Mac volume desktop

Hi David, I went this route and it worked for me. I also purchased DropDMG and it’s really simple. BUT… I have not tired to send anything to Apple for it’s approval. So I don’t know how that part works or how long it takes. Otherwise I wish Windows were as easy. John... > Paul, > > You’ll

Re: Making a package of a built Mac volume desktop

Hi Paul, I don think it makes much sense to keep the data file in the built application. I think it will be deleted each time a new build is completed. On the Mac I opted to install the myApp in the Application folder. I have installed the data file in the Documents folder inside it’s own

RE: Making a package of a built Mac volume desktop

Hi David, That sucks! It’s hard enough to spend the time trying to figure it out and then to discover a bug. I’m Still running the app from OS 10.12.6 so I’m guessing the bug is not there since it worked. I wish I could give you something more tangible than empathy. John… > Apparently,

Sheets on Windows

Hi All, 4D v17R5 Mac and Windows (running as engined app) I love how Mac OS handles windows as sheets. But on windows the same window opens centered (I think) in the screen. I’d like to get as close to similar behavior as possible. Before I spend time doing this I am wondering … Has anyone

Windows Code Signing

Hi All, I’ve been trying to create a process for installing a cross-platform volume application. I’ve been modeling the approach off of 4D TN "18-15_Application Signing with 4D” which cover both Macintosh and Windows. I got the Macintosh side handled (installer is DMG Canvas $20) now I am
