roundUp function?

We have round, which will either round up or down depending on the decimal value being > or < .5, but what if I want ANY decimal value, even .01 to round UP to the next whole number? Dictionary Examples: the round of 26.2 -- yields 26 the round of 2.5 -- yields 3 (rounds up) I want to: get round

Re: Type on an angle

I would much rather have a native angle property as a part of the text field. Live text on an angle like Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator have would enable a whole world of design apps with LiveCode. I've used the snapshot workaround for 15 years, and it has never impressed anyone. ~Roger On Sa

Can the new player work with YouTube in 8.1.1?

A YouTube URL doesn't seem to work as the fileName. Is there some special method or format of the URL needed? on mouseUp set the fileName of player 1 to "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K033kBr3C6c " end mouseUp ~Roger ___ use-livecode mailing list

A regular table field is TAB delimited. Also, refer to your "column" as "item". Try this: on mouseUp set the itemDelimiter to "^" put line 1 of fld "fPRE" into PREE1 set the itemDeliniter to TAB put item 1 of PREE1 into item 1 of line 1 of fld "fTF" end mouseUp ~Roger On Thu, Nov

If you want to total a column in a simple table field, assuming column 8, this is my long-winded approach. on mouseUp set the itemDel to TAB constant tColumn = 8 constant tFieldName = "myFakeSpreadsheet" put the number of lines of fld tFieldName into tLineCount if line -1 of fld tFi

Re: Goofy question about Datagrids

Hi Richmond, I'll give you an 'improperly formulated' explanation of my own experience with datagrids. They are more complicated to use (at first). So most of the time I still use a table field for everything except where the nice appearance of a datagrid gives the design a polished and professi
