NVM. The defaultStack. Not sure why it stops being the defaultStack though. Going to another stack then going to me in the stack script *should* make it the defaultStack again, but it doesn’t. Bob S On Mar 27, 2020, at 3:40 PM, Bob Sneidar via use-livecode

Re: Determining a scroll based on code unit offsets

Hm. My handler fails too on larger offsets but I think it's because there are lines above it that have spaceAbove and spaceBelow attributes, and those aren't being taken into consideration when multiplying lines by the textheight. I think Mark's example might work if formattedHeight adjusted

The TopLevel Stack

Hi all. I’m having fits here. I have a stack that opens another stack invisible. It supposedly closes itself, then returns to the first stack. At that point, it *should* be the topStack… BUT IT’S NOT! Subsequent commands like setting the text of a field fail with no such object! How do I

Hi Bob, Is the first stack opened as 'toplevel' or in some other mode? That would make a difference. Best - Phil Davis On 3/27/20 3:40 PM, Bob Sneidar via use-livecode wrote: Hi all. I’m having fits here. I have a stack that opens another stack invisible. It supposedly closes itself,

Save stack in HTML5

I made progress getting the basic stack going, the main hold ups were ‘wait' and 'the system date', neither of those work. What approach is needed if the stack has text entry that you want to persist when the page is reloaded? Save this stack seems not to work.

Re: Determining a scroll based on code unit offsets

Oops. Not saved. It fails on larger offsets. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Here's my longer way, it could likely be optimized better. It does rely on a scripted field selection, and the selectedChunk is passed to the handler: on grpScroll pSelChunk -- pSelChunk = selected field chunk:

Re: How to "kill" mouseTouches while waiting for an internet connection?

I always struggled with this. I ended up putting a fully transparent grc covering everything (I call it a blanket) with 'on mouseUp' and 'on mouseDown' set with nothing in them on the grc script. This catches any stray touches I want to be ignored and allow the other processes to complete. Then

Determining a scroll based on code unit offsets

In our last episode, our heroine was trapped by the selection of a line containing metadata. The heroes of this group saved her. In all cases, scrolling the field was accomplished by using the "select" command to bring the line into view. Alas, escape from one danger has led to another. The
