Re: Line numbers for soft-wrapped styled text?

The solution of Alex T. was the first example I saw of a useful usage of the styledText array. TMHO this is the way to go for the future of more and more complicated styled text. As was said elsewhere, there could be a considerable speed up if first the visible range of lines, say numbers L1 to

Re: Object Selection Handles

A lesson should be taken from any CAD program worth its salt. Handles are ALWAYS rectangles for objects, and always within the bounds of the object in question. That said, a group might be an exception, since handles would overlie the controls at the extreme corners of a group, and that

Re: Line numbers for soft-wrapped styled text?

What a cool idea ! In fact, could you not simply do set the liststyle of line 1 to -1 of fld "mytextfield" to "decimal" and then unset the liststyle whenever needed (e.g. when the field is subject to copy, save, etc.) -- Alex. On 27/03/2017 20:32, Richard Gaskin via use-livecode wrote:

When I first started down this road I went for getting max values from the styledText array, similar (though far less efficiently) to how Alex Tweedly solved this so well in his post the other day: http://lists.runrev.com/pipermail/use-livecode/2017-March/235688.html Great work as usual from

Re: where does the standalonebuilder saves the substacks in an Mac OS App?

I think that's right, Apple enforces this rule. The standalone builder will move files to a Resources folder when it builds the app. For backward compatibility, scripts that reference the engine folder are redirected to the Resources folder automatically. On 3/27/17 1:22 PM, Bob Sneidar via

To my understanding, it's a requirement in accordance with Apple's sandboxing policies, if you want an executable to be able to make changes to files inside the executable bundle. The way it's supposed to work, no application is allowed to write or modify anything in the old location where the
