Custom Installed Fonts Broken in LC 7.1.1?

Anyone run across issues with custom installed fonts not rendering on iOS (simulator) using LC 7.1.1? I've looked through QCC and am not seeing anything specific. I have a simple dummy stack that renders an icon font as expected in 7.0.6 and fails in 7.1.1. I'm hoping I someone has a workaround

Re: Figuring out if something is on the current screen, or getting the current screen rect

There is no notion of a current screen in the OS itself. Do you mean which screen the frontmost window is in? And what do you mean by "In"? A window can overlap two or more screens. Typically if you double click the title bar of a window, the window will maximize on the screen the mouse is in.

Hi all - I’m not having any luck getting local notifications to work (in the simulator at least) on iOS 8 or later. A search of the forum and bugzilla revealed that this was a known issue in the LC 6.6 series (I’ve been developing my app with 6.6.5) but that it was fixed in 6.7.1. That seems

Re: iOS Safari View Controller

OK, on further investigation the "launch url pAppURL" call is actually launching Safari and suspending my App. Returning to my app from the Safari Web view causes my app's splash screen to appear (as it is relaunched by iOS). It would be MUCH nicer to be able to open a Safari View within LC. As

Using LiveCode 6.7.8 under iOS 9.1 "launch url pAppURL" switches to a Safari view that includes a "Back to myApp" button in the top left corner. Strangely the "launch url appName://" form, based on an app's custom url, will no longer launch apps on the device. Henry -- View this message in

OK - 6.7.8 fails for me as well (simulator and device) so maybe it’s tied to the iOS sdks that I have included in the mobile support tab. The latest version of Xcode 6.7.8 will lets me include seems to be 6.4 - which gives me access to the iOS 8.4 simulator and SDK. Terry... On 12/01/2016 2:03
