Re: add a "scale" option to the icongravity

Wouldn’t you really need another property like “iconSizing” which would have values of “none” or “clip” (current behavior), “resize” or “fill” (the current iconGravity option), and “scale” (your proposal)? I can think of situations where clip and scale would need the current positioning

As I understand it, #1 doesn’t really work… it needs to be served from a web server. When you test in the IDE, it actually serves it from a server instance that is started for that purpose. As for building the paths, I’m not exactly sure but do know that stuff in the “copy files” section ends

Re: Stack with the same name loop

Yes, but it does not add anything else. If you do it two times you end up with 2 identically named stacks. You can save them to disk with different long names and end up with multiple stacks with the same short name but different long name. My demo is on bug 18793. It works in the IDE.

Clone stack avoids the check. It is not that hard to get multiple stacks with the same short name but different long names in memory (in a standalone). The engine makes sane choices when referencing the top stack in that case. Any individual stack can be referenced via the long name. Sent

Ah, the problem with calling things “facts” where the data isn’t actually knowable. The number of hairs on my head is a fact but not one that can be accurately known. Kind of like the number of people who watched the Super Bowl. In that context, true fact makes sense (also “cold hard fact”).

One thing to try for testing would be to use FSM of empty and see how many lines are required. One thing I noticed with browser widget is that native elements render at device resolution inside regardless of FSM in use. If it requires the same, then this is probably not related. If the

Works as expected/coded. Not sure how it would be changed (don’t know how to get to that state inside the widget). Anyway, to work with this you need to have your handler check to see if it needs to run. Pretty easy if using it to navigate between cards. If already on the destination card,
