OT: change email address
Will someone please tell me how to change the email address I am using to receive messages from the LiveCode lists? I tried the run rev.com web link and the message I sent there failed and was returned. thanks, JB ___ 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
Big Sur and Drag and drop
Hi, Just a question to others using Big Sur on their Macs. I have an app which uses drag and drop to place a list of files in a field. I drag the folder containing the files over the list, release the mouse and boom the list of files appear. Today I went to use this app on my main Mac which is also running the latest Big Sur beta. Dragging over the field and the cursor turns to a grey circle with diagonal line, i.e. no entry/go Launching LC and opening the original stack and sure enough, the same thing. My question, if you are using Big Sur and have an app that uses drag and drop in this way (to get a listing of files in a folder) could you please see if it still works? If not I will submit a bug report. Thanks in advance.

Re: Mouse messages in scrollers
on mobile (just iOS at the moment) I’m trying to not only register a horizontal swipe in a UIScroller but to calculate the line in the field under the scroller so that I can perform a delete action. I can get the swipe but… while these calculations seem to work fairly well in the IDE, not so much in the simulator. both the mouseH and the mouseLoc report a value but when I check it during scrollerDidScroll the X value is always 0 and the Y value is always the bottom of the screen… which of course is not particularly helpful. Am I doing something wrong or is this just not available when a scroller is under the “mouse”? Setting delayTouches and canCancelTouches to false doesn’t appear to change anything. — Scott Morrow Elementary Software (Now with 20% less chalk dust!) web https://elementarysoftware.com/ email sc...@elementarysoftware.com booth1 360 734 4701 > On May 21, 2020, at 1:22 PM, J.

Re: Issue with dropbox
Interesting. Not sure how far app signing goes. For instance I downloaded Livecode for Mac, then made the mistake of modifying 2 data grid libraries (in the bundle) before opening the app for the first time. This of course caused the system to refuse to open Livecode, but when I re-copy Livecode to my apps folder, once opened the first time, I can subsequently modify the libraries and the system will no longer balk when opening the app. Bob S > On Sep 10, 2020, at 4:30 PM, JB via use-livecode > wrote: > > Is it possible the app refers to folder B using > the path created when folder B was not in > the zipped or unzipped file therefore it can > not see folder B? > > JB > >> On Sep 10, 2020, at 3:42 PM, Charles Lachat via use-livecode >> wrote: >> >> Hi everybody, >> >> A friend has accepted to test my new desktop app. I upload the app to >> dropbox and send a link, by e-mail, to my friend. >> >> My app is in a folder "A" containing : >> >> ** the app >> ** a folder "B" containing several text files the app needs >> >> The folder "A" is zipped before uploading. >> >> After downloading (friend side) and unzipping, all the files are there but >> the app behaves as if there were no folder "B". >> >> Most of the time. >> >> What am I doing wrong ?

Re: knot in my brain?
Hi Klaus, I bet the problem is in the remainder of the script, for instance changing layers or deleting graphics (although the latter probably not). If you change it to repeat with i = 1 to the num of grcs if the short name of grc i beginswith "Graphic_" then put i end repeat do you still get an error?
