I think I have found a bug in our mobile app…. which is that:
If there is poor bandwidth, say, when the user is trying to get a video in
the browser widget, or the there is a direct call for other resources from our
API (images, audio for player, big XML/Json. etc) the UI hangs. They click a
Pro.
If a customer wants you to test on Home, buy it at that time.
If a customer wants you to test on lots of Windows platforms, get Visual Studio
Pro and build as many virtual machines or real machines you want (for
development).
If you are the customer, uh, well, it still applies.

I work on text-heavy e-book-like, multi-language applications where layout is
important.
I use fields instead of buttons as it is much easier to control the text
display.
For field length, I often set the height of the field to the formatted height
since Windows text (and other languages)
I tend to use a lot of whitespace in layout and keep label fields and text
buttons long.
And, since I am often the LiveCode programmer's programmer, building libraries

Hi JJS

It has a 1 TB fusion drive and when I upgraded from Sierra to Mojave I ended
up with a non functioning fusion drive. I had a nice long chat with the Apple

Hi Curry
Thanks for your take on my question. I too believe in developing for the
lowest possible common denominator. My MacBook Pro Retina is the 15 inch early
2013 so my theory is if my Mac can handle it in the IDE then the end users
will likely be able to as well as a standalone.
Thanks Erik for the recommended specs.
Also thanks for the advice re virtual testing. I have used parallels in the
past on an earlier Mac with Windows 7, I will have to check if my Parallels
licence is still good.
Regards,
Martin Koob

How do you people cope with the differences on fields and knobs having text in
it on the different OS-es? If i only build on windows even for Linux and Macos,
text and such never fits in the fields.And i have to adjust it and maintain a
stack for each OS.

Hi
I am just setting up Virtual Box now on my iMac. I need to purchase of copy of
Windows 10. I am just wondering whether people would recommend Windows 10 Home
or Pro. Any real difference when it comes to developing or testing? Is it
best again to stick to the lowest common denominator
I originally bought Home, but at some point needed to do some RDP testing,
which is a Pro feature. I think that currently my Parallels VM of Windows 10
doesn’t know it’s Pro, I need to track down the registration codes.
Anyway, RDP aside, I didn’t yet need Pro features, and was testing with the

Hi Martin,
ok that's really strange. You could also not start the safe mode?
Well the first update from Sierra to (the 1st) Mojave did also go wrong
here, so had to reinstall Sierra then waited for a higher version of
Mojave 10.14.2 or something and that one went flawless on the Hackintosh.
ok thanks guys, so just keep adjusting it on the other platforms as it was.

I don't "cope"; I make sure that all my buttons are NOT buttons at all:
I set up a button the way I want it on whatever OS I happen to be using
at that moment
and import a snapshot of the thing, then delete the button and use the
image:
this guarantees buttons look the same wherever they are.

I leave as much extra width as possible and sometimes make the textheight a
little taller than necessary. Usually it's just the width that's a problem.
That doesn't work too well if showborder is true though.

I would go for the Pro. So you have some more options then the Home
version.
Also depends on the what your customers mostly have.

Seconded.
For the reasonable cost difference, better to have the Pro options
available that your businesses customers will have, and be able to just
ignore those for Home customers, than to get Home
