Vertically aligning text in a field
Is there a definitive calculation that correctly sets the position of text vertically in a field? I am using LC 6.7.

Re: bug or feature in player filename?
Hi I pretty sure these are bugs in the new player introduced in LiveCode 6.7. Thanks Jacqueline for the info about the result that should be returned when a player is set to an incorrect path. Didn't know that. However it does not work in LiveCode 6.7.1-rc4 I have posted a bug report for that. [[Player]] does not return correct result when setting player filename to invalid path or corrupt movie http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14232 Also Timothy I noticed something odd with players retaining videos that should have been closed. Your message helped me realize what was happening. I have reported a bug for this as well. You can try the sample stack I uploaded and see if you get the same results to confirm this is the same issue you are seeing. [[Player]] does not return correct result when setting player filename to invalid path or corrupt movie http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14233 The really odd thing with this one is that it retains the old video even after you set the filename of the player to empty and there is no video visible. After that setting to an invalid video redisplays the video that was previously loaded in the player.

Re: Determine the LC version of an existing stack
DOH Yep, my misunderstanding. Though with the preserve stack file version option in the preferences, it must be stored somewhere for that stack. Klaus has the easiest method I guess, but i'm curious now to know where the engine tracks which format each stack uses. IF I can dig up how the engine tracks the version for stacks, i'll letcha know.

Re: Determine the LC version of an existing stack
Got it. In 7.0, first do this.. put the cRevGeneral[stackfileversion] of stack stackname If its empty, it means it was created in an earlier version of LC, and hasn't been saved using save as legacy whatever at any point. SO if that one is empty then get revstackfileversion(the filename of stack stackname) which I believe does as mentioned and checks the first bytes. However, if the file was created in 7, the first method works, and if a stack is created with 7 and then saved as, the cRevGeneral[stackfileversion] of the property is updated and will contain the version. Ah k. 6.6.2 does not have revstackfileversion(), but new stacks created with 6.6.2 have the cRevGeneral[stackfileversion] property, so it should work fine. (I think) Tho I was recently sent a version that had the 5.5 format, and it did NOT have the property set. 7 was able to get the version with its revstackfile() function.

There are only three stackfileversions (well, four, but the very earliest stacks didn't have the property.) They are: 2.7 5.5 7.0 These represent the file format of the stack on disk, one new version for each time the stack structure was changed. Stack structures are not changed very often. What would be more useful to me would be a property that returns what *engine* version the stack was last saved in. HyperCard did that, but we don't have such a thing, so if you need that info you have to save it yourself as a custom property of the stack. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

It appears that the IDE window is being excessively redrawn. With two tabs open in the IDE editor, if I hit cmd-f for search, and then click in the box, I can usually see the text area and line numbers jump wtice, moments apart. I've seen this for a while. Today I noticed, and drew the connection, when I was hovering over a variable value to copy it. The line for that variable swam on the screen, suggesting repeated redraw. (this machine is maverick; I've seen the wiggling code on Yosemite, too) Thanks. Hopefully it's enough, especially since there's no specific code that causes it. They should be able to reproduce it. I'm glad you did that. :) -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

If not, then it's recognizing a problem and attempting to save Probably the latter (almost certainly so given the subsequent posts from others about RC4 that have come in). The ~ file is the first of two steps the engine takes when saving: whenever a save command is issues for a stack file, the engine first makes a backup of the last saved copy to the ~ filw, then writes a fresh copy into the original file name, and after completing the checksum on that it deletes the ~ file. This is probably borne of Dr. Raney's Unix roots - LC originated on Unix where that sort of auto-backup is common. This save bug seems like a particularly nasty regression, but the bug reports from Eric and Trevor hopefully RunRev will get an RC5 out ASAP. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Systems Software Design and Development for the Desktop, Mobile, and the Web ambassa...@fourthworld.comhttp://www.FourthWorld.com ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Re: hide / show oddities ?
Thanks everyone for the suggestions, experiences, etc. Definitely not mismatched lock / unlock, since all the other parts of the screen are fully updated. I couldn't (naturally) recreate anything in a smaller sample, nor even reliably be sure to make it happen on demand. I finished up using a pattern rather like show grp abc set the vis of grp abc to true wait 0 millisecs with messages every time I want to show or hide things (and had seen a problem). No visible problems now - and no real idea how to try to track it down any further. I'll build an artificial deeply nested group structure in a stack, and randomly change the hide/show status of different groups within it, and test for visibility mismatches - and leave that running as a test. If that shows anything, I'll submit a bug report (and update this list for info - but I won't hold my breath :-) Thanks again -- Alex.

Trying to find this in the IDE/debugger wasn't getting anywhere, so I reverted to using puts (but still in the IDE).

Andre Garcia's FacebookLib
Hi all Is anyone successfully using Andre Garzia's FacebookLib library on mobile? I'm getting the following error when trying to log into Facebook from the demo mobile app, but using my app's key - previously this was all working: Given URL is not allowed by the Application configuration.: One or more of the given URLs is not allowed by the App's settings. It must match the Website URL or Canvas URL, or the domain must be a subdomain of one of the App's domains. I've tried to work out what the problem is - that error message is mentioned on Stackoverload and elsewhere but only in the context of web apps, not mobile. I emailed Andre 3 or 4 weeks ago and he said FB had changed something and he'd get back to me. He hasn't replied to more recent follow up emails.

Gerry, A few follow-up e-mails within 4 weeks is really too much. Try again in a few months. It isn't easy to fix something like this, especially if you're busy like Andre. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Installer Maker for LiveCode: http://qery.us/468 Buy my new book Programming LiveCode for the Real Beginner http://qery.us/3fi LiveCode on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/runrev/ On 12/17/2014 05:22, Gerry wrote: Hi all Is anyone successfully using Andre Garzia's FacebookLib library on mobile?
