Application disappears unexpectedly (goes into background)

I've got a MacOS LC standalone that opens a stackfile external to the application. Whenever I click inside one of the stack windows which doesn't have current focus, all the stack windows disappear and reappear only when I switch to another application and back again. Activating a stack window

Yes, you should textencode() to UTF when storing and textdecode() when reading - at least doing that on mobile worked for me. cheers Alan > On 19 Mar 2022, at 8:01 am, Paul Dupuis via > use-livecode-requ...@lists.runrev.com wrote: > > On 3/18/2022 12:18 PM, Dan Friedman via use-livecode

Re: A question/survey of sorts for users of Navigator

Sounds interesting Geoff. The ability to customise your own actions on objects would be great - I think we all get annoyed with some of the clunkiness of repeated actions (and no doubt we don't use all the existing capabilities of LC..), so your addition to Navigator sounds very worthwhile!

Re: Ideas on iOS GPS tracking needed

Hi Graham Are you checking the horizontal accuracy of each reading? (It's part of the array of data with your lat-longs, as well as speed, etc - though not on every phone). If not, try that and see if the anomalous readings are hugely out. From my experience, that's normally the case. If so,

Thanks Mark and Monte for the info. Had already stopped using the width/height specs and for photos from the library we had been getting EXIF info and still do in many cases (I think - more testing needed!), but as we can't do anything about what the OS gives us, I'll just slightly change the

LC9.6 Android EXIF image data issue

There seems to be an issue with getting EXIF data from images using mobilePickPhoto on Android (well, at least new Samsung mobile phones). I *think* this is a new bug with LC 9.6, but as I don't have a relevant phone to test with, it's sorta difficult to check further. Particularly as we

Re: Detecting full Mobile Sensor activation

Hi Graham So, how do you define a "meaningful" GPS signal? The GPS data you'll receive from locationChanged messages may have nothing for 1-n messages at the start, followed by an increasingly accurate number of messages (as measured by the "horizontal accuracy" and/or "vertical accuracy"

Re: Detecting full Mobile Sensor activation

Hi Graham Some ideas, from experience: 1. Start your sensor on openStack or as soon as possible. 2. Ignore locationChanged messages with empty location or if "horizontal accuracy" is outside a threshold of x metres. 3. Just set a flag or other mechanism when you want to start and stop
