Re: Message box failure in 10.0.0?

2022-02-21 Thread J. Landman Gay via use-livecode

Probably not related, none of my test stacks call out to external files.

I relaunched LC 10.0.0 and everthing works again. The only difference is that I closed the App 
Overview before quitting and then reopened it manually after the new launch. I don't know if 
that made the difference, or if something just got screwy while running the IDE. The same issue 
happened in LC 10.0.0dp1 though and I went back to 9.6.6 rather than deal with it.


I'll see if the problem recurs over time.

We've found that if a stack is internal to the .app under Big Sur (and presumably Monterey) 
that has a video player, the video in the player plays and pauses normally (i.e the UI is 
responsive to any messages to the player or menus that control the player). i.e it behaves as 
expected - normally.


However, if the player is in a LOCAL stack, but loaded from OUTSIDE the .app package (say from 
the desktop or elsewhere in the Applications folder, but outside the BUNDLE), then when the 
video is played, the UI becomes non-responsive until the video is finished playing.


We have seen other issues relating to file and folder actions that FAIL under Catalina and up 
if performed from a loaded external stack but work if loaded from a substack as part of the 
.app build. (Stacks in the app bundle, but external to the .app standalone may work - we've not 
tested)


We think this is due to Apple's permission scheme under Catalina and above and how it tries to 
detect resource access in real time and perhaps something about the stack being external sets 
the permissions system off.


I mention it in the unlikely case you are loading a external stack prior to your message box 
tests.
