Re: [ANN] Release 8.2.0 DP-1

Community Plus is a brilliant idea. Fills the gaping void that Apple inflicted on us by not allowing the Community version to submit to App Store. Other pluses... * autocomplete is very nice. * It is not $99 * it does have some nice extras to provide some extra kit for iOS. * it also comes at a

Re: Script Editor Autocomplete Optional?

Maybe a little more nuanced control over it would be nice, but turning it on/off is a start. For example, I'd like to be able to use a shortcut to use it when I want it - perhaps option-tab or something similar. On Thu, Sep 14, 2017 at 2:19 AM, Richmond Mathewson via use-livecode <

The right-click contextual menu where you "Find in Docs" would be a good place to toggle "Autocomplete On" / "Autocomplete Off". ~Roger On Thu, Sep 14, 2017 at 9:20 AM, Mike Kerner via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Maybe a little more nuanced control over it would be

Well regardless of what anyone else says I love the auto-complete feature of GLX2, so I'm all for it so long as it doesn't as some have said make you work harder to uncorrect things, but that is just a matter of ironing things out, much like we all do daily with our own code. Bob S > On Sep

Re: Script Editor Autocomplete Optional?

Don't feel bad, the requests for autocomplete have been constant over the years and I think far more people will want it than not. For myself, I'm at the far end of minimalism, I don't even use script colorization. Anything that distracts my eye gets turned off. I had the same problem with the

I am impressed with the Auto Complete. This was something that several people made a point of, saying that LiveCode was incomplete without. I believe that it is like everything else in life, People are resistant to change and once it happens we will get used to it. I agree that there should be

Question from the blog post ( https://livecode.com/new-autocomplete-live-errors-in-livecode-8-2/) In the snippet manager, you only define the name:type pair once, the first time that it is used, in the examples. Other places in the script, you only list the name. Does the name:type line have to

Yes, I suppose it may be a little disheartening, but, however clever autocompletion may be, it will not suit all people. The fact that Autocomplete has been implemented is a great enhancement, and my request to turn it off was NOT meant as some sort of denigration of it. In fact, I am quite
