Re: Allowed Orientations failing on mobile in 9dp5?

Hmmm Sorry, I have to "eat those words" I tried again today in 8.1.3 and it fails. But in some prior standalones… it did work, but I'm not able to trace back to what I did that made it work at that time. On 3/11/17, 2:07 AM, "use-livecode on behalf of Mark Schonewille via use-livecode"

Re: Messages sent while mouse is down?

Yes, that had occurred to me, but my explanation was too simplistic. While it is a Scrabble-esque game with tiles, the tiles are hexagons and are staggered on the board. (pic-- http://tinyurl.com/jjcqolm) That still might be calculate-able, but is beyond my math skills! Thanks, Tim On

Re: Messages sent while mouse is down?

If the names of the tiles are numbered in a logical way, and only go horizontal, and vertical, then all you need to know is the start spot, and the end spot, and can fill in the gaps between. On Sat, Mar 11, 2017 at 4:06 PM, Quentin Long via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote:

I am struggling to figure out the order of events for how to do this. I am creating an app called Augmented Earth. The app will be made available for iOS, Android, PC, and Mac, and maybe Linux if the browser widget works on that platform. I have an ad space set aside at the top of the app, in a

Richard. Thanks for your engagement. I would like to second this with 98%. Let me correct two of your statements (the missing 2%). 1. > RG wrote: > The last RPi build was v704, which is generally good with one critical > issue: a bug in the menu handling routine causes a crash when clicking

Re: Messages sent while mouse is down?

Although there is one scenario where one has to use Mike's looping "within"-approach (adjusted to collecting, not exiting the repeat): If the controls in question (may be all) have some overlapping areas: controlAtLoc((x,y)) reports only the control at (x,y) with the highest layer. > JLG wrote:

Hi, IMHO, another avenue for local LiveCode engagement are the *Camps. Especially the WordCamps and PodCamps. Plus there are the CodeFests and Hack-a-thons. At those meetings, I've found that some of the folks there at any given time are networking for jobs. That's good. Then there are the

Thanks foe pointing out that it works in 8.1.3. At the conference, we tried quite a few versions and none worked. This must be a bug. Kind regards, Mark Schonewille http://economy-x-talk.com https://www.facebook.com/marksch Buy the most extensive book on the LiveCode language:

Re: Messages sent while mouse is down?

mousemove works. It does appear that "mousecontrol" doesn't fire when the mouse is down so that is out. You can also use "within" which is pretty fast. Have a variable with a list of the objects you wish to check against (or array, or whatever) on mousemove if the mouse is down then repeat

I miss the Zynga "Pathwords" game on Facebook, so for my own amusement I'm trying to recreate it in Livecode. For those who don't know the game, it had a solid screenful of Scrabble-like lettered tiles. Click and drag the mouse through adjacent letters to make words. Without clicking,
