storyboard is not supported in LC. I _think_ it is possible to do it though - if you tweak the IDE code that saves the iOS standalone. On Mon, 13 Jan 2020 at 23:46, J. Landman Gay via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: The list of launch screen dimensions on the Apple develo

iOS launch screen dimensions

The list of launch screen dimensions on the Apple developer site doesn't match the requirements in the standalone builder. Does that matter? Apple doesn't recommend that method anyway, they prefer a storyboard. Has anyone done that, and is it possible? -- Jacqueline Landman Gay |

Re: Changing extention on script only stack

Is there a reason not to just put the script into a button and set the stack behavior to that? That's what I do when I don't want extra files in my build. Sometimes the old ways are best. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com On

I need to implement an adaptive app icon for Android, as described here: I'm not sure how to do this, or whether LC supports it. It seems that Android Studio will create the icons somehow, but we need to upda

Re: mobile dev confusion

LC uses the SDK primarily for its build tools, which allow the IDE to create standalones for Android. The SDK does not affect the versions of Android your app will require. For years we built apks using SDK 6, and apps built using those tools still run on Android 10 today. A while back the SDK

It may be the issue with repeat loops that do not yield to the engine periodically. This was an issue all the way back to MetaCard and I am not sure if it has been changed since then. Basicaly, running a lengthy repeat loop locks up the entire CPU until the loop exits. If this is the problem t
