LC TouchBar Macros

[Mike Kerner via use-livecode]

Has anyone designed any LC macros for the touchbar or any special trackpad
gestures?

The wiki is definitely where you want to end up. The readme has a short
description and points users to the wiki documentation to learn more.

...backing down a bit on this...
The whole LC team has been through a harrowing couple of days dealing 
with this, and it's not "their mistakes". Yes, this does have, in some 
cases severe, repercussions for us and there are ways to ameliorate the 
problem (failover servers in different regions, for instance, something 
easy to accomplish with aws). But pointing the finger at RunRev for a 
dDos attack isn't fair.

Heh. Yep. You'd have *different* problems.

Well, in my case they ARE all my computers, and only I ever use them for

LiveCode programming.

Re: Livecode.com server down

[Richmond Mathewson via use-livecode]

I have problems with mu ISP about once every 4 or 5 months:

It is NEVER their fault: it's because I use Linux, because I use 
FreeDOS, because I use Macintosh,
because I am "stupid" enough not to use Windows; it's because I have 2 
computers within 3 feet of

each other, it's because my hair is orange (OK, OK, I made that one up).

This IS the way the world goes round these days: nobody will accept 
responisibility for their

mistakes.

After loads of "kicking" my ISP generally send someone round to look at 
my cable modem:
these are always men who "go all funny" because they have to ask me how 
to use Firefox or Safari

to get to the "innards" of either my modem or my switch.

One said to me, just before the New Year; "You wouldn't have these 
problems if you used Windows".


Which is palpable 'Bollo': the sneering tone didn't help much.

The bloke tried to wiggle his way out of things even more when my wife 
pointed out
that our 2 Android ARM phones and my Android Intel tablet couldn't pick 
up a wifi

signal either.

Of course the above has got NOTHING to do with LiveCode: heaven forfend 
that anyone

suggest that they are capable of being rude or otherwise . . .

Re: Did numberFormat Break?

[Paul Dupuis via use-livecode]

I'm sure this will start some historical flame war, but why use
numberFormat (an archaic leftover from HyperCard) or invest the time to
write your own?

LiveCode has a great formatting function built in - format(baseString [,
valuesList])

put  format("%.2f",1.00+1) into tpoextprice -- does what you would get
with numberFormat as "0.00" but in all circumstances

See http://livecode.com/resources/api/#livecode_script/format
Strike that, the entry on the web site has the formatting of the
baseString options all messed up. Check the Dictionary on your copy of
LiveCode instead.

Re: Did numberFormat Break?

[Brian Milby via use-livecode]

Internally the type of “0” will be text initially which is probably why the
number format isn’t applied. Any math will convert it to a number. This is
something that should be addressed once we have optional type declaration
for variables.

Re: Did numberFormat Break?

Thanks Klaus and Mike indeed you are correct. I keep making the mistake of 
reading the dictionary. ;-P I don't see anything there that refers to only 
working with containers, only that the results of the calculation is affected. 

But it's more complex than even that. Given:

set the numberFormat to "0.00"
put 0 into textprice
put textprice

displays 0, not 0.00. So a calculation *must* be performed on a variable *and* 
the variable put into a container in order for this to take effect. What I am 
going to do instead to initialize a numberic variable is to add 0 to a 
variable. 

The second part I am sketchy on tho. I think the script editor variable watcher 
is itself a livecode stack with livecode fields, so it ought to reflect the 
results of numberFormat, however numberFormat applies only to the local script 
it is set in, so how that could be accomplished I do not know. 

I think I will put in a feature request to update the dictionary to reflect 
this.

Re: Did numberFormat Break?

[Mike Bonner via use-livecode]

If I recall what I read way back,  I think the numberrformat only applies
to containers other than variables.  If you were to put tpoextprice into
field "field" the numberformat should be applied correctly.

I think the reason for this is that numberformat can be used to add
non-number chars ($) but the number in the variable needs to remain a
number. Its only when its dropped somewhere that the changes are applied.

put tpoextprice

Adding this, will put 2.00 into the message box. LC 8.1.9, Mac.
So maybe the debugger does just not display the correct number?

Re: Livecode.com server down

[Heather Laine via use-livecode]

Did you check your account to see if it was available? The server was not down 
last night for more than about 60 seconds (as I well know, being awake for 
large portions of it). The message you saw sounds like the standard could not 
contact server message, meaning you need an offline license file. It doesn't 
mean the server is down. If you were installing a version older than 6.0 you 
will always get this message and always require an offline file. For info on 
how to do it:

Re: Livecode.com server down

[Mike Bonner via use-livecode]

It looks like the option to generate offline activation files is version
specific, but if it were me I think I'd generate files for the version I
was most likely to install and carry them on a usb stick and/or add them to
a place I could get to them on a droplet that I could easily spin up if
needed.  The usb stick (complete with installers?) would be a great choice
simply because no matter how good the remote activation site is, if the
internet drops at your location, you can still get things running using a
sneakernet usb.

Did numberFormat Break?

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

I have this in a script:

on mouseUp
   set the numberFormat to "0.00"
   put 1.00+1 into tpoextprice
   breakpoint
end mouseUp

At this point tpoextprice is 2. Not mind you, 2.00, just 2. 

Either I am missing something (again) or else numberFormat is broken.

Thanks, yes, but this was a different situation. I was trying to install 
a new version in a new system, so I needed to install a license.

Re: Levure update 0.9.5

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

Levure Framework is a method for creating LC applications that leverage Script 
Only stacks for the code so that versioning and distribution systems like 
GitHub can be used in the development process. (Trevor will correct me if I am 
wrong). Even if such a system is not used, multiuser development systems can be 
leveraged by limiting write access to any script only stack file to a single 
user.

Re: how to format text for copy-pasting as a spreadsheet table

[Bob Sneidar via use-livecode]

CTRL-K is the standard keyboard equivalent, but LC does not respond to that. I 
suppose you can have a frontscript with a rawkeyDown handler that checks for 
CTRL-K (ascii 107) then put numToChar(11) into the selection. Remember to pass 
rawKeyDown. BTW I also use this to trap for other keys like cmd-C,X,Z,V so I 
can handle those functions properly when I have custom menus.

There is NO reason at all for there not  to be a backup activation server
