Re: Nested Repeat loops

In some cases I managed to replace "repeat for" with "repeat while" and thus eliminating the flag and the test on it since the condition is in the repeat loop itself. jbv > Wondering if anyone has an elegant way of exiting all the way out of a set > of nested repeat loops., e.g: > > repeat for...

Re: Nested Repeat loops

It's hard to say without context, but one way to handle things like this is to fold it all into a function/handler. Then if you want to exit you can exit/return. On Fri, Jun 20, 2014 at 8:55 PM, J. Landman Gay wrote: > I've needed that too occasionally but I've always had to set a flag like > y

Re: Nested Repeat loops

Its not always easy, or worth the trouble, but putting the whole nested structure in a separate handler lets you use the exit command. .Jerry On Jun 20, 2014, at 6:55 PM, J. Landman Gay wrote: > I've needed that too occasionally but I've always had to set a flag like you > do. We need an "exit

Re: Nested Repeat loops

I've needed that too occasionally but I've always had to set a flag like you do. We need an "exit all repeats" command. On June 20, 2014 8:18:59 PM CDT, Peter Haworth wrote: >Wondering if anyone has an elegant way of exiting all the way out of a >set >of nested repeat loops. -- Jacqueline Land

Windows pathing question

I want to sent a command line command to a Windows executable to pass information and a command to it so that the application dials the phone number I send it (it is a telephony application). The command works fine if I specify the complete path. Is there a way I can issue the command without e

Hi Vaughn, Aside from a spelling mistake just add parentheses around all the folder paths e.g. put (specialFolderPath("documents") & "/photos/" & the short ID of this card) into thePath and then delete the current filename on mouseUp --/ the image from mobilePickPhoto uses the template image

Good afternoon! Is there a way to check to see if there is a program currently running on a Windows machine? For instance, I want to verify that a 3rd party piece of software is currently running (not just installed) before proceeding with my LC script. As usual, your comments and suggestions ar

Achieving highest resolution output

I hope someone can help me understand printing resolution. If I use LiveCode to generate a PDF that will be printed at 300 dpi, how do I achieve the best output? For vectors, I assume that it makes no difference at what scale I compose the picture. (Is that true?) But suppose I want to print
