Hi Klaus,
Could you use a portable version of VLC?
You could control vlc using the command line interface
and scripts like VBscripts on Windows and applescript
on MacOSX.

Is it possible to save the status of an option menu as a custom property? My
project has two stacks: a launcher stack and an app stack. My option button of
course is in the the app stack. I have looked in the rev archives and did not
find an example on how to do this.
Charles Szasz
Is the app stack then a separate stack from the actual program? Perhaps you
can save that.
Or you can save a file when the stack is closed and load it when the stack is
opened. Save the menuHistory.
Perhaps what you want is a preferences file. There are probably examples
around on
Hi Dar,
The app stack is a separate stack from the launcher stack. I do have
preferences substack that saves the name and other things of the user. If I do
not use custom properties, how do I save the status of the Option button as a

Hi All,
I've started playing with vibrate in iOS and ran into a problem right off the
bat.

I'm following the lesson: How do I play sounds on an iOS device?
In the lesson this script is given as a way to get the phone to vibrate…

Oh, I see.
Sure, use a custom property in the preferences stack. Someplace in starting up
set the option button. Someplace in shutting down, save the preferences. Set
the custom property either when the option button changes or just before
saving. Or you can save the preferences every time
You quoted empty. A file named empty could not be found. Just take off the
quote marks.
I do that kind of thing all the time.

From your LiveCode script call up php_export_script to extract the data you

Thanks for the tip Matthias. I’ll give it a try.
Richard, I’m afraid that changing the extension does not cause the type to
