Good pinch-to-zoom in image object?

There's a Lesson at the LC site on doing pinch-to-zoom with images, but it's kinda wonky (zooms okay, but at object center rather than touchpoint), and as I hunt around I see most people just give up an use a browser object. I have an app in which I'd rather not add the overhead of embedding

It doesn't. It's the community version that cannot bind OpenSSL. The Mac version that comes with OS X Server is not the community version and therefore supports OpenSSL. That is why I mentioned Windows. If he is running a MacOS X Server, SSL should just work. Bob S > On Jan 24, 2018, at

LiveCode isn’t the only app to leave windows visible, so I’ve become used to typing Cmd-Alt-H if I switch to another app or the finder and there’s something in the way that doesn’t belong to the app in front. Cmd-Alt-H is a system wide short-cut to “Hide Others”, so it should work in most
