2016 conference woes

I'm going to be civil here no sarcasm or ranting that I would have done if I hadn't waited 5 hours to cool down. I'll just assume a glitch that can be fixed rather than a total mess. Anyway the sound on at least a half or more of the track 1 recordings is non existent or so low or muffled I

Re: SVG Editors, anyone?

@ Alejandro: The use cases I have in mind are small but design rich "tiles" logos/buttons/icons, so I don't think a browser works. Of course larger more complex would also be great… Here is an icon design I got from our lead designer last year, I was excitedly rejoicing at team meetings

OT: Switch it off and back on

Hi from Beautiful Brittany, I've always been in favour of this practice, without questioning why ! I run an old version lof LiveCode (5.5). Quite often, I save a modified version of my stack, and then try to Quit LiveCode. I get the same message asking me to Save or Cancel, and LiveCode is now

Re: use-livecode Digest, Vol 155, Issue 15

Thanks Mike and Richmond, I'll take a look at autoit as I don't want to get into VB unless I REALLY have to! I was hoping that a short VBA script might do the job so I can use LC for the file/folder management, but autoit may be the solution anyway. Peter -- Peter Reid Loughborough, UK > On 8

Re: SVG Editors, anyone?

Thanks for the thought, Alejandro, but I don’t see how this would work when it comes to scaling. My idea would be to adapt the size of the widget to the screen size as part of the standalone, by simply changing its dimensions, and voila! the graphics in the widget would always look good. If I
