I told a web designer I'd ask here to see if anyone has ideas. I'm displaying a web page with a
form in a browser widget. On Android, when I tap into one of the lower form fields, the browser
content does not scroll up and the keyboard covers the field you're trying to type into. There
are two

I had a similar request from a client a few years ago. We couldn't find
any apps from the 21st century that do that, so instead we opted for
what we see in apps from Apple and many others:
We leave the user in control of their desired window size, and adjust
our media in the content region
Thanks Devin, I’ll try these out.
I’m seeing that the resizing process is not going to be visually smooth, so I’m
content at present to have something that does the job in chunks or at the end
of the resize.

Peter,
I asked this question several years ago and what I gathered is that it’s not
easy because window resizing is under the control of the operating system, and
LiveCode can’t really override it.
My attempts were not completely satisfactory:
I have a stack that I want to constrain to a 4:3

Does anyone have a script to keep a stack’s proportions constant when the user
is changing the stack size by dragging the lower right corner? This is a stack
with a control containing a video or image. I’ve used the geometry manager for
the objects within the stack but the stack itself needs to
Hi Jacque,
Somewhere back in my history I learned not to copy “open” files in case some
important bit of information was just waiting for the file to be properly
closed. Given the number of times you have probably done this, I can assume LC
is not leaving the copied file in an incomplete

"This me" could be a quote from that Scottish author's tale The Strange Case of
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. ;)

For the sake of clarity, in retrospect it may have been better to use This Me,
That Me, The Other Me, and perhaps Not Me. :-)

Following convention, the way Word handles Save As is what the majority of apps
do. But I have seen an app where save as creates a new file on disk but does
NOT open it in memory, completely defying convention! Add to that the confusion
Apple introduced with some of their apps, like TextEdit
Even better, use the long id of me to precicely identify the object. There are
occassions where the stack you think is the topstack, isn't.

Actually I never quit LC. I duplicate the file in Finder and then rename
the one I was working on, which is still open in memory.
I don't often use Save As but when I do I don't see a second copy of the
stack. But I did notice once that when manually removing a stack from
memory it doesn't
Hi David,
It seems confusing and I see how. Me and This are really useful and
powerful keywords. And that is the point in this example. 'The rect of me'
uses it as a keyword referring to itself. It knows then not to look any
further and applies it to itself. But once you add 'the long name of'

Ah! (light comes on). Thanks Sean. So ‘me’ is actually more specific than it
would seem! I avoided ‘me' because it returns the short name of an object (of
which there are several), and went for the long name of me because it is
unique.
Just to be clear, what you are saying is that when LC
The message path looks for the first instance it finds with a given name.
As your script is within the group itself, it would be easier (lazier ;) )
to reference to each group as 'me'
eg
lock screen for visual effect in rect (the rect of me)
rather than 'the rect of the long name of me'

Being essentially a lazy and a sloppy programmer, I made a group which
contained a script that caused the group to do what I wanted. Then I copied it
again and again, and grouped the resultant groups. Rather than adapting the
script to be located on the card I just left several identical
25 matches
