Re: Will it ever be possible place controls over browser widget?

Just tried a native Mac button over the browser widget. Clicks do get received, but the button is not drawn over the browser. The Mac native single line field will layer over/under the native button fine. And as expected, if you create a giant button and cover everything, then it is only

BR, you could try to "send in time" instead of a repeat loop. say use 32 millisecs. Then every action to stop has enough time to come in. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and

Re: Will it ever be possible place controls over browser widget?

Native layers are drawn above all LC layers regardless of what layer the object is in. This would go for native buttons and other controls as well. An interesting experiment would be to try a native button over the browser widget. On desktop you can layer over the browser widget using a second

Re: Will it ever be possible place controls over browser widget?

Bob. Overlying, no? And all objects are smoke and mirrors, in that they are chimeras that we "see", "drawn" on a "screen", when in reality they are just a list of certain transistors locked in a certain state. I get that widgets are different. But I do not like at all that they break

Re: Will it ever be possible place controls over browser widget?

I suspect all they did was take the old browser object and wrap it in a widget that it can respond to and send messages. The old browser was not on a layer per se. (Actually, nothing is, it's all smoke and mirrors). It would write or draw if you will to a rect on the screen, and once it did

This might not work for you but, I put: if the optionkey is down then exit repeat end if So not trying to capture a specific event, just looking to see if a key is pressed down. What happens is that I put one of these within every repeat loop and when it hits one, it quickly dumps out of

Re: Will it ever be possible place controls over browser widget?

The browser object sits atop everything else, or rather it is "drawn" over everything else... Hmmm. OK,this even though the browser object sits in layer 1, and the overlying button sits in layer 2. So there is a breakdown in the layer paradigm? Messages are prevented from being generated if a

Re: Will it ever be possible place controls over browser widget?

If I remember correctly this is supposed to be “change” at some point with infinite LC. In the mean time, you could overlay another html control over it and use it as a button. At least you used to be able to do that. Best, Steve > On Oct 4, 2018, at 2:26 PM, Tom Glod via use-livecode

Exiting a repeat loop

I have little game where the user runs a repeat loop. And I want to let the user stop at any time. So what I do set a local flag. Here is the simple logic -- local sStopFlag *on mouseup* *repeat* sCycles times *if* sStopFlag=1*then* *exit* *repeat* **
