What a find, thanks for the tip. Ten million downloads, #1 screen 
recorder, 4.8 star rating. And it takes screnshots too, no more awkward, 
timed button presses.


Nice. I'm in.

Snagit works with PC and Mac, and uses GIFS so the end result is a much 
smaller, and yet seemingly live screen capture file that can be posted to 
certain websites with attachment size limits, and via email.

Very useful and informative, thank you for taking the time. I'm curious 
what you used to get the screen recording. I could use that myself.

Thanks Andy for the review.

all your observations will be taken into account, we were wrestling sooo long 
with the core rendering issues that I wasted a lot of time testing instead of 
working on refinements, for which the list is very long.

I will look at your screen recordings in depth…

And we can all look forward to my wailing and knashing of teeth with questions 
on how to improve performance on Android.

I already have feedback from a young scientist in Kerala… Samsung Galaxy A7 
with a list of place where the app hangs and stops.

I was working on using TS Net to provide better control over the flow of data 
when the use is accessing content on the net. But what was simple at first 
became challenging and I had to bail and just get this out the door and printed 
promotions were already telling the world the Android version was ready 
(marketing  ahead of engineering!)

Some of the strange rendering issues on Android persist (e.g. the download 
screen for the audio) 

Happy New Year to all.

Installation was smooth with no problems.

Liked the general layout and the use of background images.

Navigation was logical although I did find myself having to remember where I
was in the app as it is so expansive.

Liked the rounded text content boxes and scrolling of the text was good and
responsive. Noticed that the AppNews differed in this layout scheme?

The search function worked though I wasnt sure what to search for.. thats
just my ignorance of the subject.

*Problems encountered*

In the Songs section about 6:00 in the video the app seemed to hang and I
received a Not Responding message, chose to respond with Wait and all then
continued to work OK.

I had problems dismissing the Share bar at about 10:40 in the video.

Some of the text was a little slow to load but not overly so.

Hope you find this useful, again a very nice app, well done to all involved.

[ANN] SivaSiva App on Google Play

2017-12-25 Thread Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami via use-livecode 
Jai Ganesha!

My new Pixel arrived the day before Pancha Ganapati amidst a 72 hour solo code 
sprint, working with the new 8.1.9 to get an Android version done. At the last 
minute I solved rendering issues on Android (not happening on Desktop or iOS)  
and with a little help from Jacque, today got the app up on Google play.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.himalayanacademy.sivasiva=en

I want to thank the team in Edinburgh for the hard work that got us here and 
all the support from this community, especially Jacqueline and Andre and all of 
you who have been so patient and generous with your time and answering and 
sharing your knowledge.

FWIW:

Our app opens and closes stacks aka "modules"…. we had a serious rendering 
issue with our "Journal" module… this reads  data from a dbase that tracks 
users history, lets her mark favorites etc. It uses a template "subgroup" on 
card 2… which includes a few widget icons. The "layout" command deletes the 
parent group "item list" on card 1 and then locks the screen and adds subgroups 
to the main group… as many as 50-100.  AcceleratedRendering is required for 
scrolling  this "beast" of a parent group. going to the journal consistently 
locked up the screen  on Android, cause quits and strange ghastly images on 
screen…  until I changed the order and timing of events, which, in the end, is 
just "logical"
This works:

1) we turn off accelerated Rendering of Stack A, but leave it open (You have to 
have a stack open all the time)

2) Open stack "journal" and in the preopenstack handler, delete any existing 
"item list" (will not exist on mobile, but does during dev)

3) the key was DO NOT set the acceleratedRendering, and issue the layout 
command (which fetches and builds the parent group dynamically.   in either the 
preopenstack NOR the preopenCard handler!

my gut is telling me there is a conflick on mobile between Stack A being open 
while Stack B tries to open and run stuff in the preopen handlers, but I just 
guessing.

4) What works is: open the journal Stack B, our navigation system will the 
close Stack A. I throw up a small busy indicate and a bottom toast (hardly 
needed) saying "Loading Entries"
5) Now, *after* the card is open and Stack A is closed, on openCard, set the 
acceleratedRendering to true, lock the screen, run the layout routine which 
build the giant parent group with subgroups and unlock the screen.

After doing getting this to work… it seemed just so obvious the best practice 
order of events…

It's just that on desktop and iOS, it did not seem to matter what you did 
first, or in what order or whether you did stuff in the preopenstack handler 
(where we were issuing the layout command before)

but now it works. We still have some crashes here and there and there seems to 
be a regression in the browser widget in 8.1.9 when you rotate the phone to 
landscape if the video has not been loaded yet from YouTube.  (only on Android) 
But otherwise the app is running pretty well, given all the arms and legs it 
has.

Cheers and Happy Solstice/New Year to all!

Brahmanathaswami
