Informal survey: multiple desktops

Now that Windows, Mac, and Linux all offer multiple desktop, I'm curious: do you folks use them? FWIW here's how I often work: I tend to open my email client and web browser in workspace 1, then LC on workspace 2. Spaces 3 and 4 tend to get used ad hoc when there's something I need to focus

Re: Scott Rossi and TactileMedia

Hi Alex, You asked: Can you say if you have any plans to produce versions of your widgets for non-mobile platforms? - YES, 100%. It is true we are looking at mobile for the moment, but we are looking to all platforms if possible. TMAlign - is more an IDE tool and not a widget, but I will take a

Re: Live search box

Hi. This is fun to do. Make two fields. In the target field, the one you will type into, set a custom property "rawText" to some long list of words, perhaps chapter 1 of your favorite novel. It is a good idea to strip all punctation from that text before setting the prop. In that field, place

Live search box

LC on Windows 10

My users find Windows 10 takes 10 seconds or more to save a 9Mb stack with app compiled under 8.1.x, Mac and Linux save in a fraction of a second. Very annoying as the app freezes while saving. $@%?$@%?$@%?$@%?$@%?$@%? Neville Smythe IGF Director (Oceania) VicePresident, Australian Go

RE: LC on Windows - slow for others or just me?

I'm on a Win 10 VM using a raid array for my VHD. At times autocorrect causes editing long scripts(2000+) to get on the other side of prohibitively slow. Other times it's OK. Don't have a recipe yet. How do you turn off autocorrect again? Populating text fields is 5-10% slower than v8. Taking 5 -

LC on Windows - slow for others or just me?

Okay, granted, I usually run Win 10 in a VM. But every other program seems pretty snappy, barely distinguishable from a bare-metal install. And then there's LiveCode. I'm running v9, and it's slower than molasses in winter. Is this just my setup, or are other Windows users finding

Andre, I'm using JSONToArray and ArrayToJSON for round trip with no problems. I'm storing an LC config array in a JSON text file, then later read the file back into an LC array. The only criticism I have is the formatting of the JSON in the text file could be better for manual changes with a text

LC Web integration is not good enough

Hi Friends, This is a bit of a rant because I can't believe no one stopped by these kind of problems before. First of all, the JS Handlers for a browser widget are one way only. There is no way to call a LiveCode function from JS and actually see a response. You need to code two JS functions,

I'm also a huge fan of tmnavigator, that has saved me from screaming and throwing a tantrum on multiple occasions, but that's not a widget. On Mon, Apr 30, 2018 at 11:47 AM Bob Sneidar via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > spell correct. I typed tmalign. > > > On Apr 30,

Todd, I think every one of the tmc2 controls would be a good start, as would a calendar widget. More customization options are always better. On Mon, Apr 30, 2018 at 11:36 AM Roger Guay via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Hi Bob, > > If your problem with tmAlign was the

Re: Scott Rossi and TactileMedia

Actually my problem now is that the plugin seems to be a bash shell not a livecode stack. Not sure how that happened. If I try to rename it from malign.rev.sh to malign.rev it won't open saying it is corrupted. In either case it will not load as a plugin. I will have to go back and see if I

Re: Scott Rossi and TactileMedia

Hi Bob, If your problem with tmAlign was the same as mine, namely the title greyed out and no longer readable, I hacked/fixed it by adding "set the blendlevel of grc "header_base" of stack "tmAlign3" to 90” on OpenStack. I did a similar thing with tmEffects. Cheers, Roger > On Apr 30,

Re: Mac app code signing for beginners

It's the nature of certificates. You can have a certificate last a long time but you cannot create a non-expiring cert to my knowledge. Also, keep in mind that as time progresses, encryption algorithms become dated. Malware forces the modification and sometimes the abandoning of what seemed

Re: Down a leafy lane or up queer street?

I avoid global variables as these are visible to any open stack you are working on, so you cannot have 2 stacks open that use the same global names or they will overwrite each other. Instead I use the custom properties of the mainstack as an ad hoc stack global system. I do this with cards and
