How do I get the Mac menubar to update without clicking outside the window? Without clicking on anything? From within the script? So that when the program goes to a different card, the menubar automatically updates without the user having to click somewhere? (Sometimes the user choosing a

stacks on internet?

I am trying to determine whether and how I can put a metacard stack on my website and have my readers access it. In hypercard it is possible to open a web page using the open url command. I am looking through the metacard documentation and finding it sparse, though I am sure it must be in

Hi Shari: Try making different manubar sets and select the one you want on preOpenCard. /H Very high maintenance. In my first Metacard project (now defunct due to a highly unpopular subject, ah well!), I was green from Hypercard and did not put the menubar in the background. When I

I forgot to address this point. The buttons in each menu group which are duplicated across different menu bars should not contain extensive scripts; they should only call a common handler that exists farther up the hierarchy. That way if you need to make changes to their behavior, you only

OK, time for my bizarro question for this month. HP laser printers have built-in web servers so that you can configure them via a web browser. On our network we've got about 30 HP laser printers. 4 times a year our district office asks us for page counts... Which means I have to go to each

Update Mac menubar

Oh man, I am sooo close! I can taste it... I put a handler in called updateMenus to run when moving to a card that changes the menubar. The gist of it is to suspend the stack, and then resume it. And it does work. The menubar does update. on updateMenus lock screen lock messages

Scrollwheel in OS X

I love that MetaCard has built-in support for mice scrollwheels to scroll text fields in MetaCard. That's great (for Mac OS X). However, is there any way I could get that same behavior for a group with scrollbars? I suspect I could do something with setting up a hidden field maybe... any

Which is very cool stuff! I just want to point out one difference that I'm trying to obtain, however: *multiple* long running processes with shared memory, and everything done with Metacard! =). Since I want most of the work to happen in Metacard, its not as valuable if I can only maintain one
