just pass "PATCH" as text literal to HTTP Request. standard constants (GET, POST, etc) are string constants too. 2017/03/28 0:09、Tom Swenson via 4D_Tech <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> のメール： However, there doesn’t seem to be a Constant for a HTTP patch method Any ideas?

Re: 4D v15.4: Internet commands *SOLVED*

my speculation is that the new line characters have been removed so that the base64 string can now be incorporated more easily as data URIs in SVG and HTML, but I do not know the full story. as a stop-gap measure I posted this plugin https://github.com/miyako/4d-plugin-base64 2017/03/15

Re: 4D email client from Dave Batton, where to get the old sample 4DB ?

Web 2.0 Pack was released more than 10 years ago (v2004). then, the Live Window Plugin was the predecessor to the Web Area form object introduced in v11.2. I am afraid the project (TinyMCE or something similar) has very limited value today. 2017/03/26 0:15、Armin Deeg via 4D_Tech

you could also... C_LONGINT($yearPosition;$monthPosition;$dayPosition) C_TEXT($digitPosition) GET SYSTEM FORMAT(Short date year position;$digitPosition) $yearPosition:=Num($digitPosition) GET SYSTEM FORMAT(Short date month position;$digitPosition) $monthPosition:=Num($digitPosition) GET SYSTEM

Re: 4D Query error, Beware

there has been a couple of fixes related to the database engine (transactional query in particular) in recent nightly builds, part of the reasons why some hot-fixes were released during a relatively short time span. 4D v16.0 Hotfix 2 (http://bugs.4d.fr/fixedbugslist?Version=16.0_HF2)

Re: SVG Text Width and Height

in general, it is best to instruct the rendering engine to decide how to align objects, rather than to compute the exact coordinates yourself. "text-anchor" (start, middle, end) should take care of horizontal align in , but vertical align is going to be difficult since 4D does not support

Re: SVG Text Width and Height

Hello, could you not simply set text-anchor to middle? ** 4D Internet Users Group (4D iNUG) FAQ: http://lists.4d.com/faqnug.html Archive: http://lists.4d.com/archives.html Options: http://lists.4d.com/mailman/options/4d_tech

Re: repost : Printer selection issue

the label editor, as well as regular forms, only accepts integer units. the label editor appears to accept decimal coordinates, but it is only a unit converter, internally the values are always stored in points (integer). remarkably, the "Print object" command works with decimal coordinates, as

Re: repost : Printer selection issue

I think what you describe is a "32-bit" thing. the code SET CURRENT PRINTER("_192_168_1_33") PRINT SETTINGS(Page setup dialog) shows "any printer" on v16 32-bit, the default printer on v16 64-bit. - even using 32-bit, once you have chosen the printer in the page setup dialog, and stored that

Re: tab seperated text - what to use for Cr

to be pedantic, you need to do more than double quote the values, in case the value themselves contain a double quote. and then, importing gets even more messy, since the values may or may not be quoted. anyway, I've published the component here: https://github.com/miyako/4d-component-csv >

Re: tab seperated text - what to use for Cr

not sure if Excel supports it, (FileMaker does) but the formal way to include multiple lines in a TSV field is to use the vertical tab character Char(11). (side-note: Char(11) shows up as \v in the debugger, although you can't it in literal text) if you are interested I can share a set of
