I’m uploading a new app to the Mac App Store and at the same time, revising my
LiveCode Lesson on the same.
Stuff has changed OR I’m just really missing something obvious.
I’ve got the app built, signed, all that good stuff. I’ve added it into
developer.apple.com with it’s bundle ID of
As far as I know, LC includes all the scripted paint commands that HC had,
and adds native color besides. The stacks I've imported that used painting
commands worked with few changes, mostly only needing to slow them down due
to LC's faster engine and more modern CPUs.
The OP wants to emulate
Right, and accessing a field is one of the most expensive operations in LC.
Maybe Richard will post his analogy to the maintenance worker again. I
found it both amusing and informative.

So the first form populates the field only oncesince its a single
command so no other states of the field will exist.
Makes perfect sense.
Thanks

"That can't be done" wins always, because the only limit for LC is the sky
(more exactly, sadly, the sky below the 65535-limit for all coordinates).
But there's a lot of features that are not
Some of you may be interested in the following "mathy beauty".
Under all circles with integer radius 0 < r <= 1 there
are four "magic" ones with radius 5, 25, 65 and 325.
These four have relatively many points of *integers* (x,y)
such that x^2 + y^2 = r^2.
(These points are NOT rounded values

Can someone explain the seemingly extraordinary performance improvement in
using apparently its "split second" vs "over a minute"
set the hidden of line 1 to - 1 of field 1 to false
vs.
repeat with i = 1 the number of lines of fld 1
set the hidden of line i of fld 1 to false
end repeat

Great clarification. Thank you. Your question now makes perfect sense to me,
and I don’t have the answer for you. Hopefully someone else does.

So we have here two methods:
The htmlText-method and the styledText-method.
There is an interesting result in the speed comparison of the two methods.
Here the htmlText-method is significantly faster
Apologies hh. I can confirm that the htmltext method works beautifully and
blindingly fast. I was going to try it to understand fully first. I now do
and am grateful for the amazing tricks I have learned here. :-)

I already gave you one that hides *exactly* these lines
(as you already wished in your first post).

Hi all
I have learned a lot here, especially the hint of using styledText. But
there might be a misunderstanding. In my case, it is not necessarily the
whole line that is styled, but a line might *contain* a chunk of text that
is styled, e.g. one word in the middle of the line has textcolor set.
I recognize the importance of asking adequate questions. I don’t know if the
one about MacPaint (MP) belongs to that group. But I use MP all the time with
SheepShaver and believe that the partial scriptability of MP perhaps was HC’s
greatest contribution to interactive use of words and images
