"System" font on Mac - diff between LC 8 and LC 9??
Could other with a Mac please give this a go to see if my observation is local to my machine alone? Create a new stack in LC8 and place a field. Open the message box and enter... set the htmltext of fld 1 to "this is bold and this is italic" You should see this is bold and this is italic (assuming the styles survive the emailing) Now open the PI for the field and click on the FONT tab. I think by default the font is called "Text" and it is one of the Lc named options. Now change the font to "system". Do the styles remain visible in the field? Repeat the above with LC 9 For me... With LC8 the styles disappear. With LC9 they don't.

Re: mergMicrophone - audio format suitable for Windows playback?
HI David – yeah, I’d love to use Keynote for this instead of Powerpoint but all the data in the .key archive is binary so not easily manipulated in the same way as it is in .pptx files. Powerpoint on the Mac actually does an excellent job of exporting to video – it just doesn’t include the audio. If it did I’d be using a combination of Applescript and Powerpoint on the Mac to handle all the video exports. Terry...

Widget message normalization
Should widgets allow the same sorts of common messages that are largely universal to other controls? Perhaps as a default, which could be overridden by the widget developer? This would assume there is some sort of superclass for widgets, so that adding this could be done once and all widgets would benefit. We've seen some posts here about mouse-related messages in which the developers using a widget were surprised to find those messages aren't available. Today this comes to mind while using the tree control widget: most tree controls I've used (all that I can recall, really) allow arrow keys to navigate the list - up and down select upwards and downwards, and the left and right keys open and collapse the selected line, respectively. I don't mind adding custom code for this, but I found the tree control widget doesn't seem to trap arrowKey messages at all. Given other compromised uses the tree control vs rolling my own with a field (sort order either doesn't allow mixed numeric and alphabetical types or throws errors, minimally modifiable appearance, etc.) I'm inclined to write my own. But then I got to thinking: how often might one consider rolling a custom solution because a supplied widget isn't quite as flexible as a given use requires? And with that, how many of those use-cases might be resolvable if widgets received the same messages other controls get? -- 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
