RE: Need to track click on a MacStatusMenu without menu items

As it is the pasta has several seasonings. 1) SQL 2)Regex. If you do any web stuff add the alphabet soup of html and JavaScript. Add the side dishes of lists, xml, json and you can see why this old brain did not have the pallet for any of the "C"s , "Java" or "php" grains that I would have to

IOS Screen resizing /EXACT FIT not working as before

Hi, On an IOS app we have been using the setfullscreenmode of stack "XYZ" to exactfit. Although it isn't perfect in the sense it doesn't try to use the "notch" it has been working well. We have compiled with the latest livecode stable and the latest XCODE and now the there is a greater margin

Re: IOS Screen resizing /EXACT FIT not working as before

Try fullscreenMode "showAll" or "noBorder". I generally use showAll. There will be black bars at the sides or top/bottom on some devices depending on which mode you choose but the advantage is that it retains the stack ratio. At least one dimension will always fit. You can obscure the black

Re: Audio recording in LC community on Windows?

Feature parity between Mac and Windows is a necessity for me as well. I teach at an upper secondary school (high school) in Norway, and we are obliged to use software that supports both platforms, as students bring their own computers and should not be required to install two OS-es to do their

Ideas on iOS GPS tracking needed

Sorry this is a bit long. For a long time I’ve been tinkering with an app that uses the GPS on iPhones to show how far ‘as the crow flies’ the user is from some base point, which is set before the journey starts. It’s intended for walkers and cyclists, and I was using a beta version in the

Re: Need to track click on a MacStatusMenu without menu items

Hi Matthias It would be possible to add to the library I think. Should just be a matter of setting an action which posts a callback on the button of the NSStatusItem. If you want to have a play the library is open source ;-) Cheers Monte > On 2 Nov 2020, at 4:09 am, matthias rebbe via

Re: Need to track click on a MacStatusMenu without menu items

Hi Monte, thanks for responding and assuming that it might be possible with adjustments to the source code. Regarding Livecode Builder, i am afraid i am a hopeless case. ;) Tried so many times to follow the widget course and other resources, but it seems i will never understand that stuff

Re: Need to track click on a MacStatusMenu without menu items

That is absolutely the proper metaphor. We just want to make good pasta, we don’t want to deal with other languages. It’s enough of an alphabet soup with web stuff. On Mon, Nov 2, 2020 at 06:41 Mark Smith via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Can I just add, that “fresh

Audio recording in LC community on Windows?

HI all, From the beginning of Rev/LC we could do basic audio recording cross platform, at least on Mac and Windows, using the QuickTime framework. QT went away a few years ago, and it took some time for that capability to be restored. On Mac we can do it in all LC editions, including

Updated NotarizeHelperStack now with entitlements support

Hi, just a quick note that i've upgraded the NotarizeHelperStack in the Livecode lesson https://lessons.livecode.com/m/4071/l/1122100-codesigning-and-notarizing-your-lc-standalone-for-distribution-outside-the-mac-appstore The stack now allows to add entitlements for code signing an app. And i
