Short answer - just the same as with LC :-)
It wasn't there in the initial versions of LC, but for quite a ong time
now the standard image functions have worked. Here's a quick (tested -
on on-rev/sage) demo with an image I happened to have:
Hi list,
IS there a way to get the dimensions

If you apply a non-standard color, it's no longer a standard button.
We have a roundrect style that may work for the type of non-standard
button you're looking for.
I should probably take it
1. create a new stack
2. drag a 'standard button' from the toolbar onto it
(you now have a nicely rounded-corner button)
3. set its script to
on mouseup
set the backgroundcolor of me to "200,50,50"
end mouseup
4, click on 'browse mode' so the stack is "live"
4a. observe the button still
I can't try it out right now - but would it be any good to set the
arraydata to empty, and then load the new values you want ? That might
(effectively) delete and recreate the relevant nodes, and thereby reset
the status of the leaf nodes.

Then there's something about Geoff's problem (or problem statement) that
I don't understand.
What on earth is in those records for sorting a mere 2000 of them to be
noticable? (I had thought he had to be talking about magnitudes more
lines than that).
LC (9.0) sorts 20,000 lines of >1000
I don't know if these are good ideas or BAD ideas and without some
suitable data, not sure if I could find out - so I'll throw the ideas
over and let you decide if they are worth trying :-)
1. Two ideas combined
- avoid scanning for the "item 1" of each line
- use the (hopefully

Hmmm - I get 7.1.0 (on sage).
And that might just be the problem with Unicode handling I think it
improved in LC v 8 upwards, but that's an area I know nothing about.

Hi Tim,
which version of LC engine are you using on the LC Server ?
( and which version on the desktop? )

Thanks, Warren.
Yes, I've got that header set up, and UTF8 is working fine, pages look
great. But LC server is not

Good advice to improve the world :-). But
I doubt if it would work out faster. A quick test of
time ls -lR > null
gives 166 ms vs. the 179 I get from the non-recursive tree walker - so
by the time you gather that output, and re-format back to something more
usable, I think you'd probably come out the same or slower.

Ah, that makes sense. It's not so much the recursion per se, but the
more general advantage of inline processing vs handler calls.
Exactly.
In the test case below you know how many levels deep you're going,
which seems a good fit

How does recursion impair performance so significantly?
In general, there's significant work involved in a function or handler
call and return - you need to establish a new context for locals, copy
or calculate, parameters, etc. My
