Re: iOS builds ignore taps
I meant acceleratedRendering, sorry. I was talking to someone about fullscreenMode right before I answered you and had a think-o. I do have acceleratedRendering enabled in my app. I also ran into the problem you described below -- taps went through but the screen did not redraw so the content didn't change. I had to force a screen redraw in several places using "set the backcolor of this cd to the backcolor of this cd". It took me hours to figure out what was wrong, I kept thinking it was something in my scripts. In my case that happened when a group was shown with a visual efect, like you did. The card content did not change. Taps did go through but visually there was no update. That was different from the one I started this thread with, which had no response at all. The script didn't run, breakpoints did not trigger. I even put a transparent button over the graphic to see if that would work and it didn't trigger either. This was on the first card shown at launch. But a field at the bottom of the card did receive a mouseup, so the problem was related to only part of the card. I poked around trying to find where the dead edges were but it didn't match any groups or controls in particular. The weird part is that it worked in some builds and not in others, though I never changed acceleratedRendering settings. This could be a problem since the fields hold credentials and the graphic is a "Log In" button. On the bright side, it keeps users out of the app which cuts down substantially on maintenance.

Re: iOS builds ignore taps
I have an iOS app that uses many graphics with movement… in addition to doing as Scott suggested (toggling acceleratedRendering on an off) I also messed with adjusting the compositorCacheLimit. Raising the limit helped. Doing this also helped with some screen redraw issues I saw that sounds consistent with what Scott also mentioned. be well, randy www.classroomFocusedSoftware.com > On Jun 2, 2020, at 1:58 AM, J.

ANN: PowerTools 2.0.22
Now that LiveCode 9.6 has had its official release, I have released a new version of PowerTools. In spite of the fact that this is the first release in almost a year, there aren't a lot of changes. They're mostly to do with updates to the core LiveCode product and some bug fixes that I've had time to deal with recently. In particular, the Stack Factory has needed some updates for some time now, and Widget extension folders now nest and unwind properly cross-platform with the new LC versions. The PowerTools plugin now docks magnetically to either side of the LC menubar if you bring it close, and minimizes (double-click the status bar) to a small icon floating next to the menubar. PowerTools registration will never expire, so you will always have access to the latest versions as they're released. https://www.ahsoftware.net/PowerTools/PowerTools.lc https://www.ahsoftware.net/PowerTools/register.lc -- Mark Wieder ahsoftw...@gmail.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
ANN: PowerDebug 2.2
And now that LiveCode 9.6 has had its official release, I have released a new version of PowerDebug. Version 2.2 is significantly refactored (yes, again) in certain areas for speed and to fix some bugs (bugs that nobody reported, so if they didn't bother you, pay no attention to the bugs behind the curtain). And the bigger news is that code profiling is now integrated into PowerDebug. If you're not running the Business edition of LiveCode you'll notice a new entry in the IDE's Development menu. It will toggle between "start profiling code" and "stop profiling code" depending, of course, on the state of the profiler. If you're running the Business edition then you'll already have noticed that menuItem, and PowerDebug's script profiler will be invoked when you select it. Unfortunately, we can't get any more granular that microsecond timing, so nanosecond times are rounded up and then averaged across multiple iterations. https://www.ahsoftware.net/PowerTools/PowerDebug.lc https://www.ahsoftware.net/PowerTools/BuyPowerDebug.lc Documentation is at http://powerdebug.ahsoftware.net And as usual, PowerDebug registration will never expire, so you will always have access to the latest versions as they're released. -- Mark Wieder ahsoftw...@gmail.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

Fonts and Property Inspector / fontNames / fontStyles Different on Every Platform
LC 9.6 GM Win 10. I have 3 Arial fonts installed. 1) "Arial" with 4 styles (plain, bold, italic, bold-italic) 2) "Arial Narrow" with 4 styles (plain, bold, italic, bold-italic) 3) "Arial Black" with 1 style (plain) In the IDE: Via the PI "Arial Narrow" and "Arial Black" are not accessible. "Arial Narrow" (or Black) are not in seen in LC's fontNames or fontStyles functions either. I guess that's why they are not in the PI. One can select "Arial Narrow" (or Black) by typing the full font name into the PI or set via script. This appears to be a LC Windows IDE limitation with a work-around... OK I can deal with that. MS Word shows all 3 fonts. If you set the font name of a field to empty(PI or Script) then the font of the higher objects are inherited. This is displayed in the PI in italic(as expected). In my environment I have no fonts specified all the way up to the stack so "Segoe UI" (displayed in the PI in italic) is used. Set the font to "XXYYYZZ" then some unknown sans font is used. What font is this? How does LC choose a font when a field is set to a font that is not installed? Font observations by platform. Win 10 using fontNames() and fontStyles(): "Arial" has 4 styles (plain, bold, italic, bold-italic) No mention at all of: "Arial Narrow" "Arial Black" Android using fontNames() and fontStyles(): "Arial" has 4 styles (plain, bold, italic, bold-italic) But also shows "Arial Bold" with 1 style (bold) "Arial Italic" with 1 style (italic) "Arial Bold Italic" with 1 style (bold-italic) "Arial Narrow" 1 styles (plain) "Arial Narrow Bold" with 1 style (plain) "Arial Narrow Italic" with 1 style (plain) "Arial Narrow Bold Italic" with 1 style (plain) "Arial Black" with 1 style (plain) - iOS using fontNames() and fontStyles(): "Arial" has 1 style (plain) "Arial Bold" with 2 styles (plain, bold) "Arial Italic" with 2 styles (plain, italic) "Arial Bold Italic" with 3 styles (plain, bold, italic) "Arial Narrow " has 1 style (plain) "Arial Narrow Bold" with 2 styles (plain, bold) "Arial Narrow Italic" with 2 styles (plain, italic) "Arial Narrow Bold Italic" with 3 styles (plain, bold, italic) "Arial Black" with 2 styles (plain, bold) - Mac OS using fontNames() and fontStyles(): (the same as iOS except for the bold italic) "Arial" has 1 style (plain) "Arial Bold" with 2 styles (plain, bold) "Arial Italic" with 2 styles (plain, italic) "Arial Bold Italic" with 4 styles (plain, bold, italic, bold-italic) "Arial Narrow " has 1 style (plain) "Arial Narrow Bold" with 2 styles (plain, bold) "Arial Narrow Italic" with 2 styles (plain, italic) "Arial Narrow Bold Italic" with 4 styles (plain, bold, italic, bold-italic) "Arial Black" with 2 styles (plain, bold) This is so inconsistent I can't even critique it.

Re: iOS builds ignore taps
On the test device (an iPhone 6s) it was reporting a compositorCacheLimit of 67108864 (64Mb?) and I increased it by 16Mbs to 83886080 which solved the problem. I didn’t try to find where the edge was. After looking at the layerMode of underlying groups and changing ones that obviously should have been set to scrolling but for some reason were static, fiddling with the acceleratedRendering or compositorCacheLimit was no longer necessary. — Scott > On Jun 2, 2020, at 9:50 PM, J.

Re: iOS builds ignore taps
In my case all groups that use a scroller have scrolling layermode set. They work. The primary problem for me is that regular LC controls stop getting messages and responding to taps. All these controls are set to static layermode, so I'm not sure how acceleratedRendering could affect them. But it does bring the app to a screeching halt. I wish I had a recipe. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com On June 2, 2020 8:35:49 PM scott--- via use-livecode wrote: I had two different scrolling groups on a card where I found it necessary to toggling acceleratedRendering. I just discovered that neither of these groups had the layerMode set to “scrolling” (they were both “static”). Though they appeared to scroll smoothly on all my test devices, changing their layerModes to “scrolling” now makes it so the acceleratedRendering doesn’t need to be fiddled with in order for other objects to display correctly. — Scott On Jun 2, 2020, at 5:55 PM, scott--- via use-livecode wrote: Hello Randy, Adjusting the compositorCacheLimit (instead of toggling the acceleratedRendering) also seems to fix my most recent encounter.
