SunnYmidi: script your sounds
Hi, Only 2 days left to benefit from the introductory price for SunnYmidi. SunnYmidi is a MacOsX external which offers LiveCode coders a set of commands to play MIDI notes. - You can select up to 250 instruments - You can play up to 16 simultaneous notes (16 channels) - All commands are asynchronous If you already have a game or critical real-time stack (for instance with a lot of animation), you can add any SunnYmidi command into your script and your animation will still act as before. You don't need to bother about any latency or synchronisation. Roadmap for SunnYmidi: - iOs platform - manage SoundFiles - manage Midi Destinations (live Midi) - add sysex command - load/record Midi files - ABC to LiveCode translator Today, I've still not decided which new functionnalities I'll start coding. So, for all those who are in need of one of them, drop me a line - you could help me to choose the one to start with. You can also download from http://sunny-tdz.com : - a full working Demo tutorial of SunnYmidi - SunnYabc Demo an ABC Tunes player (only MacOsX). (formely MaestroJunior presented at revLive.09 Conference) and from from Rev-online : - SunnYbeep a fun alternative to the beep command, and more, it's free!

Copy Files in the Standalone Settings
I am happy to report that this has been fixed in 4.6.2. Good job, RunRev! Slava === When I use the Add Folder button in the Copy Files tab of the Standalone Settings dialog, I see the path to the folder listed with an asterisk, like this: Fonts/* I thought that when the standalone is built, all files in folder Fonts would be copied to folder Fonts in the subtree that contains the executable. This doesn't happen: the folder is created, but it is empty.

Re: Snapshot command and non-rect polygon selections?
John, I don't think you can automatically do what you're asking -- a snapshot always grabs from a rectangle. You either need to do as Andre suggests, or you have to define the L region yourself, and mask it out of the snapshot image. You can do this using a combination of ink effects, or by artificially applying alpha transparency to the snapshot. There are probably a few other ways as well. Here's an example of masking using ink effects: go url http://tactilemedia.com/site_files/downloads/masking_options.rev; Here's an example of applying alpha transparency to one image using the imageData of another image: go url http://tactilemedia.com/site_files/downloads/get_alpha.rev; Hope this helps.

Android and IOS
I went from a 80 col card programmer in 1973 though OS and CGI development in the 1980-1990s to VB6 and Java today. I'm new to Livecode (1 month) So go easy on me. I see this a rough crowd, but some help by pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated. My apps for both Android and IOS will access SQLite databases. The app is coming along fine in the IDE (database access and such). I am in the process testing on Android. After Android I will start testing on IOS. So these question are Android related but IOS comments would be appreciated. 1) I have a splash screen that displays an image using the image control. Works fine the in IDE, but is blank when run on the Android HW. Image file is obviously not available to the app on the HW. The image file is in the apk file. How is this referenced to work in both the IDE and HW? 2) I included both the db and splash screen image in the Copy Files tab of standalone app setting. They are both in the apk file. When I browse the apk file after installation in the elusive data/app folder and browse the apk files assets folder the db and splash screen files are there. The real question is how to move the db to the equally elusive /data/app/myapp/files folder on install for R/W access. I put a copy there manually for testing my app. I can access the db using the specialFolderPath(documents) path. The specialFolderPath(engine)/assets path should point to the apk's assets folder but I having no luck during the openstack event coping the files myself to the /data/app/myapp/files folder for R/W access. 3) What type of menu will use the native menu picker(slide with finger) on the Android? I see that to use the native view in IOS the menu picker or some such thing must be used. I will go there later. For now Android is the priority. 4) Are there some example of resizing the stack for various screen sizes? I have read the grouping of objects is helpful. I also imagine the portrait/landscape requires some planning so resizing is practical in both orientations. I have seen some resizing code but it is not completely clear to me. 5) Does anyone know when GPS access on the Android will be available? Is there a workaround? 6) Can you get runtime errors when running on the Android HW? Now all I get is nothing. 8) How do you install app on SD card? 9) Are there any LC APIs for GPS coordinate proximity to zip codes? I know this is a lot of questions. I have been reading and hacking 24/7 for a month now and app is almost complete except for these issues. Thanks in advance for any insight!!!

Bounty for Google OAuth2 For Native Apps
Hello I really want to start messing with my Google Calendars and Contacts with LiveCode. To do that I need to be able to Authenticate my LiveCode app. And I just don't have the time to figure it out. So I am announcing a bounty of 200 dollars for a library stack that can Authenticate to Google using OAuth2 for Native Apps.Here are the docs from Google: http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OAuth2.html#IA Requirements - Include Sample code that can create a Google Calendar and then delete it. - Needs to work on Mac and Windows, all other platforms are optional. - The code needs to be releasable as free and open source stack, with no restrictions. First one to get me a working example that meets the above requirements wins Here are the docs from Google http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OAuth2.html#IA Happy coding and good luck!

Re: A save question in an app
Charles, No. You can't do that. Not even with Applescript. Currently, you'd need an external to do that. Usually, I check whether the user deleted the file extension. If yes, then I add the file extension again and check to see if the file already exists. If the files exists, I show the user an error message and leave it with that. The user will have to try saving again and will hopefully have learned not to delete the file extension. On Mac OS X, you don't really need file extensions. You could do with file type and creator. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 New: Download the Installer Maker Plugin 1.6 for LiveCode here http://qery.us/ce On 30 jun 2011, at 01:31, Charles Szasz wrote: I have the following code in my save handler: if there is not a folder tNewFolder then create folder tNewFolder end if ask file Save file as: with (tNewFolder /Untitled.datatxt) put it into tSaveFile if tSaveFile is empty then exit to top put gatherData(tCardName) into URL (file: tSaveFile) end if When an user saves a file, the user is presented with a file dialog that has Untitled.datatxt hilited in the Save As dialog.

We even like each other. :) My apps for both Android and IOS will access SQLite databases. The app is coming along fine in the IDE (database access and such). I am in the process testing on Android. After Android I will start testing on IOS. So these question are Android related but IOS comments would be appreciated. 1) I have a splash screen that displays an image using the image control. Works fine the in IDE, but is blank when run on the Android HW. Image file is obviously not available to the app on the HW. The image file is in the apk file. How is this referenced to work in both the IDE and HW? You can either branch to accomodate each environment, or easier, set up your hard drive files to mimic what will be on the device. On Android, files in the Copy Files inclusion pane will by default be relative to the engine, so when you're using a stack in the IDE, make your files there relative to the stack location. Set the defaultfolder to the one holding your stack and then you can reference them on both platforms the same way. The default folder on Android, if you don't change it, is the engine folder so you don't have to set it there. So if you have a folder of images next to the stack on disk (and you've set the defaultfolder,) it's path will be images/splash.png. On Android it will be the same. Re-reading that, it doesn't sound too clear, so ask if you need more. 2) I included both the db and splash screen image in the Copy Files tab of standalone app setting. They are both in the apk file. When I browse the apk file after installation in the elusive data/app folder and browse the apk files assets folder the db and splash screen files are there. The real question is how to move the db to the equally elusive /data/app/myapp/files folder on install for R/W access. I put a copy there manually for testing my app. I can access the db using the specialFolderPath(documents) path. The specialFolderPath(engine)/assets path should point to the apk's assets folder but I having no luck during the openstack event coping the files myself to the /data/app/myapp/files folder for R/W access. I'm not sure exactly what's going on under the hood, but I heard it's not as straightforward as you'd think. The advice is to always use the built-in specialFolderPaths and just let the engine do what it needs to do: put url (binfile: specialFolderPath(engine)myDb.db) into url (binfile: specialFolderPath(documents) myDB.db) 3) What type of menu will use the native menu picker(slide with finger) on the Android? I see that to use the native view in IOS the menu picker or some such thing must be used. I will go there later. For now Android is the priority. A native scroller control isn't there yet, but you can emulate it. There's an example in the TickedOff stack shown at the conference, and I think at the Summer Academy, but I'm not sure if that's available for general download. Basically you just set up a field with the right text size and lineheight and then script it to scroll on touch. I'll see if I can find an example tomorrow and post it, unless someone else does it first. 4) Are there some example of resizing the stack for various screen sizes? I have read the grouping of objects is helpful. I also imagine the portrait/landscape requires some planning so resizing is practical in both orientations. I have seen some resizing code but it is not completely clear to me. There is a lesson here: http://lessons.runrev.com/spaces/lessons/buckets/1004/lessons/28683-Displaying-Assets-On-Differing-Screen-Resolutions You need to script each object's rectangle and/or position in response to a resizeStack message, which the stack receives when the device rotates. You'll also need to run the same resize handler on preOpenStack or preOpenCard, based on the screenrect. Resizing is a pain but once you get the hang of it, it becomes more tedious than difficult. 5) Does anyone know when GPS access on the Android will be available? Is there a workaround? I don't know, but I'm pretty sure there's no workaround. 6) Can you get runtime errors when running on the Android HW? Now all I get is nothing. Yes, and with the older Android plugin there was a log window you could open just for that purpose. It got omitted when the Android build was integrated into the IDE (and I want it back.) But you can install the older plugin and use it just to see the output log, and it won't interfere with the IDE at all. I think the plugin can be downloaded from your store account. Once you've installed the plugin (ask if you don't know how) you can open it and
