Also "the short name of this stack" and "the name of this stack" will give you various amounts of detail.  Ralph DiMola IT Director Evergreen Information Services Original message From: Roger Guay Date:08/27/2016 22:31 (GMT-05:00) To: How to use LiveCode

Get the filename of this app

I want to get the filename of the LiveCode app I happen to be in/running. “get the filename of this app” obviously does not work, but surely there must be a way to do this??? Thanks, Roger ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com

Re: Underneath

The problem, and it is a problem, is that I have a set of alphabet tiles called names such as "A.png", "B.png" and "C.png" [trying to be original here] and they all contain this script: on mouseDown put the short name of me into IMENA delete the last char of IMENA delete the last

Re: Underneath

Well, assuming you are following the same sort of naming procedure for all tiles and grid names… then what about on mouseDown grab me end mouseDown local tShortNameOfTarget on mouseUp put the short name of target into tShortNameOfTarget repeat with x = 1 to the number of controls

Re: Underneath

Well, let's contextualise that: It works in my example stack #3: http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=7=27837=145849#p145849 but NOT in my stack with multiple targets. Richmond. On 27.08.2016 17:29, Richmond wrote: That works! Thank you. R. On 27.08.2016 16:24, Randy Hengst wrote:

Don't use "to me" but use the card or the stack that contains the control to be deleted. -- Kind regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Http://economy-x-talk.com Share the clipboard of your computer over a local network with Clipboard Link http://clipboardlink.economy-x-talk.com Op 27

Re: Suicide

What is the use case, Richmond? If you want to delete any object on a card by just clicking on it, you can put this on the card script: on mouseup delete the mousecontrol end mouseup and make sure that the objects you want to delete do not have a mouseup handler. On Sat, Aug 27, 2016 at 2:55

How can one do what I want to do with this script (which does not work)? on mouseUp delete me end mouseUp and does that constitute suicide, assisted suicide or euthanasia? Richmond. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com
