Re: Points of Graphic Oval

You can use the effectivePoints to get the points of any graphic shape, but depending on the size, your oval may produce too many points. In any event, your source oval doesn't need to be perfect. If you reference a "decent" number of points along the shape of the oval, your image will have the

Yes, I've been using the python server as described in the deployment guide, and it's very handy. But the real app (the one this was condensed out of) actually wants to download files from a server (that I can't add the app itself to), so for now I'm kind of stuck. Hmmm - maybe I can modify

Hi Al. This is not a bug, your script is wrong. If TM is a,b,c,d,e,f then you have to do put item 1 of pArgs into tMatrix[0,0] put item 2 of pArgs into tMatrix[1,0] put item 3 of pArgs into tMatrix[0,1] put item 4 of pArgs into tMatrix[1,1] this yields correct results. [In fact

The solution here is to use revBrowserOpen. I missed the fact this is on macOS. We removed CEF on Mac in 8, as it was not possible to use CEF on Mac as a slave (for technical reasons). The system web view on Mac is still WebKit based so they are very similar. Sorry for the confusion! Mark.
