This sounds like a good LCG multi-part project - building a mobile app version of the dictionary that you can mark up similar to the way you can mark up pdf's and images. Maybe you have a paint/draw layer that overlays the dictionary for notes, illustrations, etc. On Mon, Nov 27, 2017 at 1:25 PM,

While I use the internal dictionary (via TinyDict) for quick lookups, there is something nice about having a separate browsable copy on my iPad. Why would I like an electronic version? 1. I can easily make notes, bookmarks and highlights for future reference. 2. I can browse through it on a whim

For those wanting an electronic version of the dictionary download Dash (for Mac) or one of its widows or android equivalents and the Dash docset version of the docs. They are at lc9dp10 version and will be updated to dp11 soon after it is released. Searching is very fast, even with the guides.

Are you just talking about the lack of full text search? The dictionary seems to work ok on my iPad (served from my server). CSS and HTML need more tweaks to work well on a phone sized device. On Sat, Nov 25, 2017 at 11:34 AM Pi Digital via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: >
