Hello,
I wonder if anybody has reflected yet, what the windows 8 metro paradigm
means for our standard LiveCode applications?
I didn't downloaded yet the beta version, but I think most programs will run
also under windows 8.
But what would we have to change in our programs to be fully win8
Thanks Monte !
It works very well.
The functions of formattedHeight and formattedWidth are good for me.
It can work well in double-byte character.

Hello,
When I have opened (in the IDE) a modal stack without closebox, how can I
close it by a windows keyboard shortcut? The messagebox window isn't

Hi Tiemo,
If you're lucky, you can right-click in the modal dialog and change the stack
mode to toplevel.

cache size than other applications.

A work around for this situation is to test if you are in the IDE or not, as
below:
