Re: Unable to Affect Printer Paper Orientation?
There doesn't seem to be any way to force the Print dialog to accept the landscape setting. ... Is there anything else I can try short of creating yet another dialog for users to click No, really, I want to print landscape! ??? [answering my own question] I am admittedly new to LiveCode's printing features, but it turns out I was missing a few key pieces of information... 1) I was using the form answer printer when apparently one needs to use open printing with dialog. Not sure why both options exist but the former appeared to be unaffected by manually setting printer properties (and led to a couple of days of aggravation). 2) I found this tidbit buried in the user contributed notes of the Rev 4 Dictionary stack: If you change the orientation of the printed page by setting the value of the PrintPaperOrientation property, the value of the PrintRectangle does not change to match it until you open printing. This info was key in tracking down paper orientation problems. Many thanks to the anonymous poster who added this to the dictionary. Maybe the above will be helpful for anyone else struggling with print orientation issues. Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile Media, UX Design Recently, I wrote: I'm wondering if anyone has come across a print dialog situation that has multiple ways of setting paper orientation (LC4, Windows XP). After beating my head against the wall for several hours, I realized that the landscape paper setting in the Page Setup dialog in XP is not being honored in the main Print dialog. Even when I explicitly script set the printPaperOrientation to landscape before opening the system print dialog, the orientation setting shows up as Portrait. In my situation, the paper orientation is found in a secondary dialog that is accessed by clicking the Preferences button in the main print dialog. There doesn't seem to be any way to force the Print dialog to accept the landscape setting. In the Page Setup dialog, setting landscape orientation works as expected. If I set the paper orientation manually and bypass the print dialog, I can print landscape no problem, so really the only issue is the main print dialog. Is there anything else I can try short of creating yet another dialog for users to click No, really, I want to print landscape! ???

Multi-Language-Support iOS
Hello all, while waiting for my first app to be reviewed I'm planning the next apps and also think about a better multi-language support. I hope one of the next versions of the iOS-Plugin will support language detection :) In my first app (english/german) I used text files for labels and texts which have to be shown in seperate languages. Not very elegant. For the next version/app I'm think about building a function which extracts all long IDs of objects in all stacks which have a custom property called localize (for example), which I then will put into an array and save as a file. So I would have a database of elements which have to be translated. This data could be completed by translators (friends, myself) with different languages. I would load this array while starting the app to set all labels/texts to the language which is choosen/detected. How do you think about this way, any better ideas?

Re: Multi-Language-Support iOS
Hi Harald I don't know if this works on iOS but In my app using Japanese and English, I have two custom property sets that have the same elements, each with names in their respective languages. The appropriate property set is set on preopenstack of the mainstack based on a preference setting. on preopenstack set the custompropertyset of wd myapp to whichlanguage end preopenstack under the custompropertyset I have a customproperty consisting of a list of objects and their label/content synct,Synchronize multit,Multiple Copies then I read the customproperty and split thelist by return and comma then on preopenstack of the main stack or any substacks I set the object properties. set the label of btn synct to thelist[synct] set the text of fld multicopyt to thelist[multit] you do not have to include a customproperty that is one long list, you could make each label a separate cprop and call it like set the label of btn synct to the synct of wd myapp The important part is that you have a custompropertyset for each language and then set that according to your user's preferences.

Re: Groups as background
Make sure that the background behavior (behaves like a background) of the group is true, so when you add additional cards the group will appear there. You only need to do this once.

Re: Multi-Language-Support iOS
Hi Ron, thank you for your remarks! That could be a way to distribute the loaded language file to the relevant elements. But perhaps the step via customproperties isn't necessary. When I have to change labels and texts with a script I could also get the input directly from the language file. (I do want the data to be in an external file, because the handling of more than one translation should be easy. To make every change inside the stack by hand wouldn't be very comfortable and the chance to make errors would be too big.) Regards, Harald.

Re: Cloning cards
Hi Richard, My intuition told me as much, and I've been surprised at how easily I'm able to change the data in a Standalone by using an external text file and then changing the text file along the way. My dilemma, now, is that this sub-stack is already part of the standalone, so splitting it off as another stack file may not be so easy. OTOH, it may also solve an issue I now have communicating between that sub-stack and the main stack in the standalone. We'll see once I take a look at Sarah's tutorial.

Re: Cloning cards
Hi Richard, I'll save this approach as a plan B; for now, I think, I'll just create a brand new, expandable Main Stack that I can use when the user needs to create new forms. I think I can probably do this by just creating a dummy empty stack and, then, when I need additional copies of a Form, instead of cloning that Form in the sub-stack, I'll copy it, go to the dummy stack and paste it. That may also make the sequencing of Forms easier. Your suggestion, though I'm sure it is great, appears to be a bit too complex for me at this time. Plus, it is always a good idea to have a Plan B around. (smile) My problem is: if I don't think of something, I sometimes have trouble understanding how someone else's way of doing things works. It's a my brain problem we all face in our declining years. The old dog - new tricks syndrome if you will. I'm still struggling with the custom properties concept. (smile) Thanks...

Re: Multi-Language-Support iOS
Harald, Seems good ! I just use, for my own, a function witch contains items lines delimited rows, one sentence per row and a different translation per item. Best, Pierre Hello all, while waiting for my first app to be reviewed I'm planning the next apps and also think about a better multi-language support. I hope one of the next versions of the iOS-Plugin will support language detection :) In my first app (english/german) I used text files for labels and texts which have to be shown in seperate languages. Not very elegant. For the next version/app I'm think about building a function which extracts all long IDs of objects in all stacks which have a custom property called localize (for example), which I then will put into an array and save as a file.

Re: Blend level scale query
Not sure what you're looking for here David. AFAIK, blendLevel is simply a percentage of opacity.

It was once possible to set individual pixels of an image
Showing my age, but HC had an XFCN called thePixel (by Steve Drazga), that returned the value, black or white, of any point on the screen. For the reverse, setting a pixel, I used to choose the pencil tool and click at a point. If the pixel color at that point was white, it would change to black, if the opposite, well, then the opposite.

Whoops! I didn't mean the splash stack should close itself I meant hide itself. Closing the real stack will have to have a Quit command at the end of anything else you do.

Re: Blend level scale query
I believe the 1-100 is a measure of percentage, not the actual bit value for the alpha channel (or whatever they are doing there). 100 would then correspond to 255 (if I do not have it backwards). If you cannot use a decimal value for blendLevel then I think you are stuck with 100 levels. Is it easy to discern the difference between 50% and 51%? If not, the point is moot.

Strange Datagrid Column Problem
I've customised a datagrid column to contain a checkbox. Right after the customisation, the checkbox shows up in the column just fine. I then added the following line of code in the FillInData handler for the column: set the hilite of button 1 of the long ID of me to handleBoolean(pData) .. and I get the message an error has occurred in behavior for the column template: Object: can't set this property. I've used this same code in other datagrids to handle checking and unchecking check boxes and it works fine. So I stuck an answer information right before that line of code to display the name of the control just to make sure I was looking at the correct control: answer information the name of button 1 of the long ID of me The display shows the correct name for the check box but it says it is a field, not a checkbox so no wonder it can't set the hilite property!

If not, what do I have to do to see what the ipad image would be? Edward, the iPad screen is 1024 x 768 or 768 x 1024 depending on orientation. After that, you need to take 20 pixels off for the status bar at the top, which makes the effective dimensions 1004 x 768 or 748 x 1024. You can set the orientation using the iphoneRotateInterface command. If you want to control how you allow the user to rotate, you need to handle the orientationChanged message as shown in the handbook. When a rotation occurs, you get a resizeStack message which you can use to adjust the size of your gif, or show/hide different images. In the simulator, there are menu items to allow you to simulate a rotation. The actual scale of the simulator screen depends on your screen res, but is an accurate representation of what you will see on the actual iPad screen.

Apostrophes When Downloading From On-Rev
Hi everyone, I store some web form data on the On-Rev server. One thing I've noticed when I download it and import into LiveCode is that apostrophes appear as, what looks like, a lowercase i but with a small slash rather than a dot on top (ASCII 234?). Looks like I can get it by typing Option-Shift-s on a Mac. To get back the apostrophes, would I simply replace numToChar(234) with numToChar(39)?

Re: Drag and Drop to Item in List Field

If I put the following script in the source list field the correct text is sent in the drag. on mouseDown set the dragData[text] to the selectedText end mouseDown Target field script hilites the correct line in the list on dragMove set the hilitedLines of me to (word 2 of the mouseLine) end dragMove However, if I also put this script in the target field script nothing happens: on dragDrop put the dragData[text] pass dragDrop end dragDrop What I need is the dragged text and the target field line. I believe I can only get that from the target field not the source field but I can't figure out how. Add a dragEnter handler to the target field: on dragEnter set the dragAction to copy -- there are other options end dragEnter on dragMove set the hilitelines of me to (word 2 of the mouseline) end dragMove on dragDrop put the dragData[text} pass dragDrop end dragDrop As is, the dragdrop handler just puts the text into the message box. If you want it dropped into the field, supply a position, like put the dragData[text] cr before the mouseline. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: LiveCode and the Mac App Store
Well this would be great news for a few projects of mine. In xCode you have to register in the applications pList file for Document Sharing in order to 'turn on' this feature.

In other words can you register that folder as a shared folder and see the contents in iTunes? I think so, but I've only tested in the simulator so far. But the docs say the Documents folder is compatible with iTunes expectations, and that it's seen and backed up by iTunes. There's no indication you need to do anything in particular to get that behavior, it just happens. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: OT: getting page hit-counts for on-rev account

Quite often I use a service at http://statcounter.com/ It not only counts, but shows you the pages they were on, what order they traveled through, how long on each page, referral, and some other bits of information. Helpful for fine tuning entry/landing pages to larger sites. Free up to five hundred records (I think) but that simply means it keeps the most recent 500. For a price you can add more records and other features. sims ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Re: OT: getting page hit-counts for on-rev account
Thank you for the responses. Had a look at the on-rev cpanel's Logs, at Google Analytics, and briefly at statcounter.com. Google Analytics does work with on-rev webpages (just insert some code into the html code), it is free, and looks more attractive (and more detailed?) than on-rev Logs. So, being more familiar with Google than statcounter.com, went with Google Analytics. Cheers. -- Nicolas Cueto ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

I know this is a 'bit' early and I may be jumping the gun but... Has anyone out there installed Elsie four fiftyone and if so are there any gotchas waiting to bite us in the backside?
