POST data size bug

2021-01-09 Thread Neville Smythe via use-livecode
I seem to have hit another bug in POSTing data to LiveCoder Server (Community 
9.6.2) 

If the data being posted has 139000 characters the POST succeeds and I get a 
response back from my LC script in about 2.5 seconds. If I try to send about 
14 characters I get a time out error.

I presume the problem is in LC server, not in the internet library in my client.

Re: LC & Mac M1 Chip

2021-01-09 Thread Curry Kenworthy via use-livecode



Me:

> I'm planning to get an M1 Mac this year

Naturally, right after I post this, Apple makes headlines (again) for 
doing something arbitrary and rather dim.


So an ethical and professional disclaimer:

I don't support self-contradictory and illogical policy,
any more than self-contradictory and illogical UI.

Shallow thinkers (and toddlers of all ages) focus mainly on external 
agreement. It requires some mental development to realize a need for 
intellectual consistency and indeed honesty.


I like the way this principle is clear in the realm of coding. If true 
is also false, logic falls apart. Every logical branch in a script 
evaluates to true or false. True and false must be reliable, not 
arbitrary and capricious. Otherwise code would be unpredictable.


(That's why people who rationalize have trouble writing good code: they 
are speaking a second language, and have trained themselves to imitate 
logic rather than following it! Mental habits matter.)


Apple's biz practices make it difficult to avoid finally replacing my 
2012 Mac, but as most people here probably know, I did not intend my 
statement as an endorsement. Glad Richmond can still work on the G5! :)


Best wishes,

Curry Kenworthy

Hmm: writing as a lazy slob, I'm not entirely sure if I have the energy
or the motivation to determine the length of 176 wav files.

Hi Richmond,

Do you know how many seconds in length each clip is?

If so, you could tell it to start a second or two sooner
to help eliminate that pause you are experiencing.

See the "prepare" entry in the dictionary. It's specifically designed to allow 
instant playback.

Native scroller and iPhone X and >

2021-01-09 Thread Ludovic THEBAULT via use-livecode
Hello and happy new year !

I’ve tested my app on an iPhone X and the height of the native scrollers are 
not corrects.
It seems that this is due to the notch. The scrolling area is smaller than 
needed.

Il i test the same app on an iPhone < X (without notch) it’s ok.

What I missed ?

Here the script ( it’s a locked grp with an field on it)  :
mobileControlCreate "scroller", sControlName

mobileControlSet sControlName, "rect", the rect of grp «  scroller »
mobileControlSet sControlName, "contentRect", "0,0," & the formattedWidth of  
of fld «  toScroll » & comma & the formattedHeight of fld «  toScroll »


Any ideas, i can't solve the problem.

Thanks !

Erm . . . not sure about this, but the word 'concatenation' just bubbled
up in my brain.

But any concatenation would need to be done on the fly inwith LiveCode.

Audioclips overlapping

When I try to play a succession of audioClips they overlap each other.

Is there a way to ensure each clip does not start playing before the 
preceding one has finished?
