Any add-on in the merg suite is likely to only use Apple centric formats. I would let Windows PPT convert the audio, then if playback is suitable on both platforms, distribute the converted file. On Apr 11, 2017 2:53 AM, "Terry Judd via use-livecode" < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > I’m

Re: AW: vertical text?

That's nice, but text angle should come as standard a field property (in my opinion). There are many use cases for field labels or table headers to sit on an angle for screen space consideration. ~Roger On Wed, Apr 12, 2017 at 11:25 AM, Paul Richards via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev

Re: AW: vertical text?

This is really the first mention I've seen of the resource requirements of certain widgets. Assuming that overhead is minimal just because it is so darn easy to add to a stack will be our downfall. :) ~Roger On Wed, Apr 12, 2017 at 2:12 PM, Richard Gaskin via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.

Re: mergEXT

If you (or someone you know or work with) have an Android phone or tablet, try this app. It will scan for nearby bluetooth devices and provide a plethora of info (including UUID) about the devices. It even sees Monte's "Hello World" broadcast from LiveCode when you open his MergBLE sample stack.

+1 And if you must introduce a arguably newer/better term, please make its syntax more English-like and less code-like. This _is_ LiveCode. Cryptic is for those other languages. /2_cents ~Roger On Tue, Apr 25, 2017 at 10:11 AM, Rick Harrison via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com>

Re: Make numberFormat even better

I wouldn't even be here if not for my introduction to English-like syntax via HyperCard 25+ years ago. My apparently "not very useful work" over the past 25 years while benefiting from that very same "less complex" syntax has kept me employed, my family clothed and fed, a roof over our heads, and
