Bug, feature, or just something I need to program around?

In a LC single line field (MacOS), the keys shift-cmd-rightarrow will select from the current position to the end of the line, and add that to the selection. BUT if I TAB into the field the cursor is initially at the start of the field and the key sequence above will move the cursor to the end

Re: LiveCode convert seconds to dateItems - year is out by 19?

According to the Dictionary "LiveCode uses midnight, January 1, 1970 as the start of the eon. Date and time functions are computed from that date.” This is the same as MacOs, according to fandom "The epoch of Mac OS X , macOS

AppStore rejections

My latest update to an on-going app (5 year old project) got rejected 6 times by Apple reviewers before lucky #7 satisfied their demands. I haven’t been rejected this much since high school! Lol https://www.dropbox.com/s/en7xjkm354zv3pp/lukcy7.png?dl=1

Re: LiveCode convert seconds to dateItems - year is out by 19?

Could it be something to do with the base date on the mac vs the base date of live code? I believe the base date on a mac is 1970, not sure what it is in live code? Terry > On 11 May 2021, at 13:59, Keith Clarke via use-livecode > wrote: > > Thanks Martin & Alex, > > I wasn’t aware of ‘the

Thanks Martin & Alex, I wasn’t aware of ‘the seconds’ - thanks that’s behaving correctly here. Tracing back from this date conversion being OK to the tCreateDate variable. This is item 4 of the long files, which according to the docs, should be Creation date, in seconds. Bypassing the conver

Hi Keith I just tried the following on mouseup convert the seconds to dateitems put it end mouseup The result is 2021,5,11,7,52,5,3 So that is correct. Where is the value in your tCreateDate variable from. Maybe there was a miscalculation there. Martin > On May 11, 2021, at 6:44 A

Re: LiveCode convert seconds to dateItems - year is out by 19?

I doubt it :-)  As a useless piece of info, it works OK for me. I'd suggest printing out the tCreateDate and "the seconds" so you can compare. Or, put the seconds into tCreateDate and convert it, just to see. Alex. On 11/05/2021 11:44, Keith Clarke via use-livecode wrote: Hi folks, What am

LiveCode convert seconds to dateItems - year is out by 19?

Hi folks, What am I doing wrong with convert tCreateDate from seconds to dateItems… I’m pulling the long files of files I created yesterday on a Mac and attempting to convert the creation date. Whatever date type I choose, LiveCode reckons yesterday was in the year 2040. Did I oversleep? Than
