BTW, I like the idea of putting a reference link to the lessons in the "This Week in LiveCode" newsletter. It's an easy thing to do and I think it would help. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com On February 15, 2021 12:26:30

Re: LC Roadmap

I had to check and the lessons are in fact in both the Help and Resources menus but they are called Tutorials. Both link to the lessons site. I never actually looked at those before, I only knew about the lessons from elsewhere and I always use a bookmark to get there. Like you, I don't want

Re: Polygon fill algo?

Thanks, Monte. I checked it out, but unfortunately none of the options handle my specific use case in the way I want (which is arguably an unrealistic expectation, given that I need to have the fill region paint over some vertices). I also discovered what may be a bug, or at least a

Re: LC Roadmap

I just noticed that the "Codesigning and Notarizing your LC Standalone etc” lesson was updated on Feb 9, 2021. Perhaps I misrepresented the real situation in my previous post. Roger > On Feb 14, 2021, at 2:35 PM, Roger Guay via use-livecode > wrote: > > Well, permit me to chime in here

Re: LC Roadmap

Well, permit me to chime in here with full knowledge that I may be out of date with what’s already available. Arguably the most important feature of LC is its muliplatformness. Recognizing that it is a moving target, We/I need and want up to date easy to use lessons on how to build

Polygon fill algo?

I was hoping to use a single polygon draw a box, using the old trick of making discontiguous regions by adding a blank line between lists of points. The results draws the lines as I expected, but the fill is unpredictable, at least for me. Apparently the fill rules for a polygon cause it to

Re: LC Roadmap

I am currently working as a teacher in an upper secondary school in Norway. I teach Computer Science and languages like English and Norwegian. Besides working as a teacher for more than 20 years, I have also experience from running various businesses. The combination of the two very different,

Re: LC Roadmap

Every Livecoder who is interested in creating lessons or fixing outdated ones can ask Livecode Support to get access to the Lessons section. Livecode will then create an account and will provide the tools for creating the lessons. At least this was the fact when i asked if i could help.

Re: LC Roadmap

Folks, a bit more: Both documentation and marketing are huge tasks and keeping even basic documentation current is a big job. A few years ago, I tried the lessons that were produced by the livecode team to help folks create basic Apple apps. In my view, they were a failure. First, they seemed

Re: LC Roadmap

There is a whole lot more at http://lessons.livecode.com. While these aren't videos, the amount of info there is impressive and lessons are added all the time. Personally I find written instructions much easier to follow and they don't require me to spend extra time watching a video and

Re: LC Roadmap

Curry, Your comments echo some of my experiences with Livecode. In olden times, when I realized that I could significantly improve my students’ learning by enlisting computers, I began with HyperCard, went to Supercard, and when it failed at cross platform, I went to Macromedia Director. I’ve
