Re: Transferring a DB from Firebird to 4D using RazorSQL on Mac

Jorg, I tried this search got something that looks useful, but I have no clue, maybe you will. "GDSServerVersion.INVALID_VERSION firebird" (no quotes) it says something about format of expected reply. On Wed, 26 Jun 2019 22:57:09 +1000, Jörg Knebel via 4D_Tech wrote: >

Complex graph

Hi All, Using 4D V16 or V17 on windows, I have need of to do a complex graphical representation. Does someone know a demo application in 4D that explain the use of SVG or other 4D features that I can see? Thanks /Ferdinando/

I assume this is on windows.. If so, is there an ODBC driver, if so you can simply do general selects from 4D by logging into Firebird db using ODBC Regards Chuck On Wed, Jun 26, 2019 at 8:57 AM Jörg Knebel via 4D_Tech <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> wrote: > > Hi All, > > I try to transfer a Firebird

Hi John, The “classic” 4D Write tool example for Write Pro doesn’t appear to be a component. (That’s because project form “Main” has “Published as subform in the host database” **unchecked**. Project methods and 4D Standard actions appear to be how the toolbar and the Write Pro communicate.

Re: Complex graph

Ferdinando, For truly complex graphing you can't beat D3 . On the other hand for the sort of in-line graphs you referenced I heard a great hack from David Adams: Unicode U+2588 is a small, black, borderless square. So you create single line histograms in a text var using this

Re: 4d-write-like-toolbar-example-for-4d-write-pro help [SOLVED]

Hi Jeremy, Thank you! That was way too obvious for my simple mind! So the key is to make sure that the 4D Writ Pro area is focusable and the Toolbar is not. In that way, as Jeremy said, the context fro the actions will be on the 4D Write Pro area. Now I will have to reread the 4D Write Pro

Does, v14 or newer versions of 4D support Find in die sign locating method references which are in object properties? ex: Listbox - Foregound Line Color -> my_method_to_set_Fore_Color In the above example does Find in Design locate the call to 'my_method_to_set_Fore_Color'? Thanks Chip

Yes. At least they do in v17R4, which I just tested. I have a variable on a form where the expression is “Size of array(atMyArray)” and it showed up in Find in Design. I also tried it with an expression which calls a Project Method and it shows up too. Tom Benedict > On Jun 26, 2019, at

Re: Indexing taking a log time to reindex

perhaps the reindexing of the 250k table has saturated the cache, leaving little space the smaller table. FLUSH CACHE (FLUSH BUFFERS) with the * could be used to purge objects from the cache, if that's the case. also 15R4 improved the indexing process

Managing multiple windows in the same process (v17r5)

’Traditionally', I have opened windows in their own processes. In the ‘old days’ that was because of the need to use process variables, and to avoid any possibility that one window would screw up some process vars on another window, it was best to isolate them this way. … new process ( ) ...
