tabbed windows

2018-10-27 Thread Neville Smythe via use-livecode
Extraordinary thanks, Paul, you have reduced my blood pressure by 30 points. I 
can’t think why I so obtuse as to not think of going to a different app and 
then sliding from the Development menu to the View menu! Simples!

Re: tabbed windows in Mac - as setProp

2018-10-27 Thread Paul Hibbert via use-livecode
The menu item “View > Show Tab Bar” does show up occasionally, there does seem 
to be a trick to getting it to show up if it’s not there right now. 

I find that switching apps will sometimes return the menu item occasionally, 
but I seem to be able to force it to show up by switching to an app that does 
have tabs, such as Mail, then click on the LC window that is showing a Tab Bar 
(to switch back to LC), now click and hold on the “Development” Menu then slide 
across to the “View” menu, now you have one opportunity to turn off the 
offending Tab bar before it magically disappears again.

Hope I explained well enough and it works for you, good luck.

Paul

tabbed windows in Mac - as setProp

2018-10-25 Thread Neville Smythe via use-livecode
Well it seems the feature is “tabbed” windows. It is a feature of High Sierra. 
However for non-Apple apps it has to be implemented by the third party, and in 
this case I think the LC implementation is faulty.  I can add windows to the 
tabs, but not remove the last tab.There is supposed to be a menu item in the 
Windows menu to turn the feature on and off, but it’s not there. I can’t turn 
it off and I have no idea how it got turned on, presumably a combination of 
option keys while the cat was walking across the keyboard. Yesterday upon the 
stair I met a man who wasn’t there … I wish, I wish he’d go away.
