That needs the same energy as the simple math method but as you ask: 1. set the twelvehourtime to false 2. compute what you get when converting t=0 to long time (=diff) 3. subtract diff from your start time 4. repeat converting your seconds value to long time ___ 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

Perhaps the dateItems format would get you part of the way there.

I started getting this warning in Chrome yesterday. It pops up when I start an LC Server session. I don't see a way to set this attribute when creating the session.

RE: Set font dynamically to fit text
This is how I fit text into fields and buttons. This the first LC code I wrote back in LC 4.6. I did not follow best practices back then. After looking at it again I see that I optimized it so you don't have to set the textsize to some huge number. https://tinyurl.com/y2jtt877 Ralph DiMola IT Director Evergreen Information Services rdim...@evergreeninfo.net -Original Message- From: use-livecode [mailto:use-livecode-boun...@lists.runrev.com] On Behalf Of Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami via use-livecode Sent: Monday, October 14, 2019 3:21 PM To: How to use LiveCode Cc: Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami Subject: Re: Set font dynamically to fit text Dan: Thanks for the handler! Ralph: Actually that last solution offered was fromr Dan Friedman not mine. Can you put your two handlers on the list? " I also have an option to fit either by height or width." Doc Hawk: I give in , " Font scaling itself is nonlinear enough, but the way margins scale with font size is downright psychotic " that's two unknowns in the equation. So iterationis required Ralph wrote I use the same technique as BR with a couple of diffs. I originally went down by 1's like BR but changed it for increased performance. I set the textsize to a large number(I like BR's initial size option) I then go down by 8s, add 7, down by 4s, add 3, down by 2s, add 1 finally down by ones until it fits. Each of the 4 loops has a check for min size so it down not go down below 2. I guess 2 is too low but it's been working. I also have an option to fit either by height or width. ___ 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 ___ 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: Catalina and stuff other than 32bit—USB broken
No, I haven't tried QUEMU. However, I downloaded a new xCode and, when I ran it the first time, my little board started working and showed up as a virtual serial port and as a disk drive. The good news is that it works. Perhaps xCode swapped out something, maybe drivers. The bad news is that I have no idea whether something that runs on my machine will run on another without xCode installed.

Re: Catalina and stuff other than 32bit—USB broken
I'm not sure how this addresses my concern. Uh, rant. Lament. If this is an OS problem, then a Hackintosh system would not solve it. If this is a driver problem, then perhaps Clover will work, but maybe not. (When I build a machine, I would use Windows or Linux, so—for me—Hackintosh is not a solution.) I like working with USB gadgets on the Mac, but if "Works with Catalina" has to become a de facto standard for USB, then Apple is going to lose a market. A virtual Windows machine is of no help here. Oh, and I said AdaFruit has a fix for Feather boards. It doesn't work for me. This also means my advice to use virtual machines for Windows is flawed. Maybe this is Apple's way of saying I should get a new Mac, but I hear even some new Macs have the problem. > On Oct 14, 2019, at 2:10 PM, Erik Beugelaar via use-livecode > wrote: > > That is why I rely for the last 10 years on myself built Hackintosh systems. > They run faster for less money and they are modular and easy to upgrade. > With the introduction of Clover it has never been a problem to use hardware > components (especially graphic cards, wifi/bt cards, sound cards etc.) which > were not supported by Apple anymore. > > On 14/10/2019, 21:58, "use-livecode on behalf of Dar Scott Consulting via > use-livecode" use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > >Catalina does not recognize the bootloader for atmega32u4 Arduino boards > such as Leonardo.
