The Cat ate my mouse
So I am trying to make a text editor in LiveCode that NEVER uses a mouse (pace the late, great Jeff Raskin). Not a big problem selecting fields, and positions inwith text in fields using keyUps trapping F-keys. What IS a problem is HOW to select an word either before or after where the insertion point has been positioned. 3 glasses of dry white wine fantasy in best alcoholic pseudocode following: on rawKeyUp RUP if RUP = 65470 then select after word 1 of field "TEKST" select the word before the selected delete else pass rawKeyUp end if Richmond. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: Multiple Monitors ; However, LC IDE want a 0,0,X X working rect.
I raised the second monitor, then adjusted the arrangement in Mac OSX prefs.

Centers the stack in the monitor. I also have found it necessary to record the rect and loc of the stack on close so I can restore it on open.

Re: Dark Mode in macOS Mojave, any thoughts from the mothership?
Hi Tekne, We have filed this bug report to track the crash on startup on MacOS Mojave: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21363 Note that Mojave is currently in early beta, so it might be the case that this issue is resolved on the next beta. If I remember correctly, a similar problem affected LC in early beta of High Sierra. Anyway, if you could attach a crash log to this report, it would be great.
