Radio Buttons on multiple cards

2018-11-16 Thread Peter Bogdanoff via use-livecode
Hi, A question about LC mechanics: I have a stack of 10 cards, sharing the same background on each. That background group contains a sub group of a 2-button radio set. When the user selects radio button 2 on any particular card, I want radio button 2 of all 10 cards to be also selected. All I

I just did a test "Sentence 1. Sentence 2. Sentence 3. 4 sentences are here." Recognizes only 3 sentences. ". " (period space) then should be recognized as a sentence delimiter. and 1 letter sentences could maybe be ignored as acronyms., and also we can read whether the period is preceded

After some thinking I actually do agree it is not a bug. The problem being that full stop (period) can also be used in abbreviations, and numbers can follow immediately after such abbreviations. Tore > 17. nov. 2018 kl. 00:36 skrev Tore Nilsen via use-livecode > : > > I would still say

I have come across what I think must be a bug in how LC handles sentences. When a sentence begins with a number, it is not counted as a sentence if the previous sentence ends with a full stop. If the previous sentence end with a question mark or an exclamation mark, then the sentence starting

A widget in a stack is just a reference until an application is built where the compiled LCB and resources are packaged with the app*.  Opening a stack with a different version of the IDE will use the included widgets from that version of the IDE.  User installed widgets will remain constant as

Brian, So walk me through this: Is the LCB code for the widget a component of the widget itself or of LC - i.e. is the widget in a stack just a reference to the widget in LC (which would mean that the code changes with each version of LC, until you do a build), or is it dependent on the version

Hi Bob, I tried your suggestion. No luck on that. I also tried not using a sub-stack and put the menu in the normal stack on a different card that I wasn’t using. It works fine in the IDE but not in a standalone version. In the standalone it keeps giving me the default Menu instead of the one
