For sharing, I would suggest (possibly in addition to sample stacks) that people set up a GitHub repo.  Even though you can’t easily see changes in binary stacks, commit notes can explain the changes.  Be sure to use the livecode tag to make projects easily found there. If you want to expose

Do you use the images as controls? If so should be no problem. If however you use buttons that reference the images, you will need to make sure that when pasting/cloning the group, you have code that re-associates the images with the buttons. Actually, now that I am thinking about it, this is

To me the nav-bar is pretty much useless the way it is. It is a problem with widgets in general that they often do not allow fine grained customization as long as they do not give access to all properties and other settings and di what all other controls can do. And writing myself a nav-bar with

There was talk at one point of being able to link to github repositories directly from within LiveCode share. I think this was from last years online conference? This would be a great way to share code snippets ect but I have not seen any reference to this since. - Andy Piddock My

I suspect it's a group / script rather than a widget. And the facilities for sharing such things are primitive to say the least. IMHO, if Livecode made it as easy and "complete" to share scripts/groups as it is for widgets, there would be far more of them available Alex. P.S. by "complete"

its not a widget, just a group with some code that runs on "resizestack" I am intending on putting the whole project in github when I get to a certain point. Should be soon. But maybe I can get around to publishing this part separately first. If you or anyone really needs it urgently, pm me

See the Icon SVG Library.  You can create your own icon families for use in your apps.  The current icon family is the one shown in the PI but you can use any available icon in the widget. Thanks, Brian On Jun 15, 2019, 3:40 AM -0400, Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode , wrote: > Hi, > > i am

The is a command setCurrentIconFamliy that you can use. You first need to create an icon family by adding all your wanted icons into an array, there array needs to have a structure of Array    Iconname        Codepoint        SVG  iconname        … I’ve always used 0 for code point and the svg

Hi, i am currently working on a mobile app which makes use of the navbar widget. I like the ease of that widget. The only thing i am missing is that i would like to use my own icons with it, because i need other symbols than the ones provided by the widget. So is there a way to use custom
