Re: Drag and Drop to Item in List Field
Getting closer now. 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.

You can only do this if you want to create the control in a group for some reason. It is a bit odd. It should be: create [invisible] type [name] [in group|card|stack] Where stack reference creates the control on the current card of the stack. But for some reason it doesn't work that way so stick to your script or create a group to create objects in.

Stack scroll bars to fit small screen
InfoWallet now requires 1024 x 768 which is fine for all monitors these days except for NetBooks which typically have a resolution of 1024 x 600 and sometimes smaller. It would be difficult to squeeze everything to fit in that size window. How can I make the application window scroll (i.e. add scroll bars) if the window size became smaller than 1024 x 768?

Re: How can I direct revGoURL to a specific browser?
OK. I wasn't specific about all the details because it wasn't material to the question but since people keep trying to solve the wrong problem I will now say the whole story. A company I work at has this terrible time card software program. For some inexplicable reason this web page actually opens a popup window after you authenticate. This means that the user has to turn popup blocking OFF. The software has only been certified for IE on Windows but in our testing it actually works in Firefox and Safari too. Our users have popup blocking already turned OFF for IE. To make life easier for other browsers we recently added code to the page that tests for popup blocking. My program is a reminder application that launches a URL to whatever the default browser is. The URL works perfectly for IE, Firefox, and Safari regardless Windows or Mac. However, we discovered that if a Windows user has IETabs installed in Firefox the URL hangs Firefox. So we were left with the dilemma of either not detecting the blocking of popups which means the user has no idea why the screen just blinks at them or hanging the browser. I thought that if I could direct IE to open the URL for Windows, it would always work because all the users already have IE correctly not blocking popups. Fortunately the code for testing blocking of popups was fixed so it doesn't matter any more. However, it sounds like there isn't a good way to open a specific browser in Windows. Bill Vlahos On Jul 21, 2010, at 11:05 PM, Jim Ault wrote: You aren't specific about what does not work (menus, images, layout, javascipt, etc) but you are entering the land of cross-browser compatibility. You are not specific about which IE version. Very few people like the idea that a particular app (such as IE) is launched by a program. Many would suspect phishing or other nefarious actions are taking place, much like their bad experiences with the annoying pop up window marketing tactics. If you use JQuery or other javascipt library, you have far less worries about which browser and which version. It would handle all versions. Another drawback to designing for IE is that every version makes substantial changes. Solution: Your web code will instruct the user's browser to download the JQuery and CSS files that you specify. This means when IE 9 rolls out, all you need to do is update the JQuery library file on your server and you are covered for all versions of all browsers. A very complete documentation and corrective action tutorial is on http://quirksmode.org but be warned, it is a complex subject.

Binary files inconsistency
The next version of InfoWallet will support attaching files that are compressed and encrypted when stored. I've noticed that it works correctly with some files but not others. The script below takes a binary file, compresses it, decompresses it, and then saves it back to disk. I've skipped the encryption part for this recipe because it behaves the same way. It works correctly with .jpg, pdf, and .doc files but not .pages or keynote.

Re: Mac Scrolling
I'm a little confused as to what the complaints are with scrolling. Are these the issues? 1. First click in the scroll bar between the thumb and end of the scroll bar is ignored. 2. Double click in the same area doesn't do something (I'm not clear what that is) 3. When System Prefs are set to Jump to spot that's clicked it doesn't do it. My results: 1. It always behaves correctly for me. I'm not losing any first clicks anywhere. 2. I don't see any special behavior with double clicking this are on any Mac app. 3. Confirmed in both InfoWallet and the Rev IDE. It looks like this preference is ignored in Rev. I never noticed this before and no one has ever reported it. I think the default setting on the Mac (and certainly my setting) is Jump to the next page which works as expected. Interestingly, looking closely at the Smooth scrolling option I don't see any difference in Rev apps but even in Apple's apps the difference is so subtle that it is almost unnoticeable. Casually looking at any app with this set I don't think many users would be able to tell any difference at all. As far as I know, except for item 3 above, InfoWallet scrolls correctly everywhere. Please let me know what behavior you are seeing that didn't work.

Uninstall refused to do anything (see separate thread), so I don't know if the latest install is completely new or not. The problem still exists.

Windows frontmost app and Rev System Window
The Rev system window is always supposed to float above all other windows. However, in Window 7 it only sort of does. If a rev system window comes up it does float over everything else. However, it still appears to float above everything in that if I click on an application behind that application comes to the front but doesn't cover the Rev floating window but the title bar of the Rev floating window changes a little to indicate that it is no longer the frontmost window even though nothing else is drawn above it.

Re: Add file to Custom Property

Is it possible to present the file from Rev so that the program (Word, etc.) would be able to open it directly without saving it to disk first?

Re: Windows Portable???
No they are not the same. Here is a link for Windows Portable. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd388998(VS.85).aspx U3 is a standard that is Windows only and is designed to provide a better application launch experience for applications on USB drives. It works by presenting the USB drive as both a USB drive and CD. The CD does the auto-start and launches a catalog interface where the applications have been loaded. One of the big problems for non-Windows computers in that there are two drives that have to be ejected when finished. There was some talk of a U4 standard which would include other platforms but I haven't heard anything about that in some time. Even for Windows, U3 has not taken off and it diminishing in popularity. I chose not to support U3 with InfoWallet (where it would appear to be a perfect fit) because of the problems with Macs and Linux. It looks like the rest of the industry is losing interest as well.

Re: How to invoke SendInput() Windows API. was Re: How do I paste into a different app?
I found this on Microsoft's developer site but I don't know how I can implement
it.
The SendKeys class has been updated for the .NET Framework 3.0 to enable its
use in applications that run on Windows Vista. The enhanced security of
Windows Vista (known as User Account Control or UAC) prevents the previous
implementation from working as expected.
The SendKeys class is susceptible to timing issues, which some developers
have had to work around. The updated implementation is still susceptible to
timing issues, but is slightly faster and may require changes to the
workarounds. The SendKeys class tries to use the previous implementation
first, and if that fails, uses the new implementation. As a result, the
SendKeys class may behave differently on different operating systems.
Additionally, when the SendKeys class uses the new implementation, the
SendWaitmethod will not wait for messages to be processed when they are sent
to another process.
If your application relies on consistent behavior regardless of the operating
system, you can force the SendKeys class to use the new implementation by
adding the following application setting to your app.config file.
appSettings
add key=SendKeys value=SendInput/
/appSettings
To force the SendKeys class to use the previous implementation, use the value
JournalHook instead.

It looks like Microsoft has deprecated the keybd_event API and suggests
using SendInput() instead.
Below is a sample of what needs to be sent. This is a C++ example. How do I
send this from Rev in Windows? It looks similar to what I do with
AppleScript on the Mac? While the send...as applescript commands are
documented in Rev's dictionary I don't see anything similar for Windows
APIs.
INPUT inp[2];
memset(inp,0,sizeof(INPUT));
inp[0].type = INPUT_KEYBOARD;
inp[0].ki.dwFlags = KEYEVENTF_UNICODE; // to avoid shift, and so on
inp[1] = inp[0];
inp[1].ki.dwFlags |= KEYEVENTF_KEYUP;
for (LPCTSTR p=str; *p; p++) {
inp[0].ki.wScan = inp[1].ki.wScan = *p;
SendInput(2, inp, sizeof(INPUT));
}

Re: Noise in Windows icon when standalone compiled on Mac
Good news. I converted the Mac .icns file to Windows .ico format using IcoFX on Windows. Now a Windows build icon looks good even though it was built on the Mac. I guess Rev 3.5 was able to make a better build image from the flawed original .ico file than Rev 4. Thanks for the suggestions Sarah and Jacqueline.

I don't know why it happens, but if this is a valid work-around, then I'm happy. I can't say for sure, I've never used the default Rev app icons for anything except quick tests on my Mac. For cross-platform client work I've always used custom app icons, which I create with IcoFX on Windows (it's free and it works great.) They've always been fine so I didn't know until now there was ever a problem. -- 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: Geometry manager
I do. I've found it to be a bit touchy in development but no problems at all in the compiled applications. One thing I noticed is if you have lots of objects on the screen it makes a huge difference what layer the object is if you use relative object positions (i.e. place one object in relation with another).

But I'm in a position now where I need to make several large stacks with many objects into resizeable windows, and I'm wondering if using the manager would be faster than writing all that code.

Re: Linux deployment . . .
I think it is important to continue to support Linux for a few reasons. First, it makes a great statement about the ability for Rev to be truly multi-platform. I remember a rep from Borland a long time ago claiming they were multi-platform because they supported a couple of flavors of Windows. They were serious. Second, even though Linux folks don't actually buy software, I like the ability to say that my software runs on Windows, Macintosh, and Linux just for the marketing aspect. Particularly since it is so easy to build for it and test it. Third, there are some situations where Linux would be the preferred distribution because these are embedded systems. I would like the Linux builds improved a little which is happening. I don't use Linux as my development platform so I can't comment on the folks who are saying it leaves some to be desired. I generally write and build on Mac for Windows and Linux but text on all the systems. This has worked well for me. I'm very interested in the iPhone version. WinMobile is dead and I don't really know how viable the Blackberry application market is. Android looks promising but it looks like it will be a difficult environment to build for. Different model phones with different feature sets and screen resolutions and even different versions of the firmware to deal with. The Blackberry market suffers the same problems with different models. With the iPad being so similar to the iPhone/iPod Touch it makes for a very predictable market to sell to. I can't wait.

Revlet updates don't clear the cache
When I update the Revlet and html files the browser (Safari on the Mac but maybe others too) still runs the old one in its cache even if I reload the page and quit Safari. The only way I can run the updated Revlet is the reset Safari cache from the Safari menu. Are there options to make this work better? I can't expect users to do this.

Re: The seconds and time zones
The seconds is exactly what I wanted. I needed a reliable way to tell when the user changed the record so I can sync the most recent changes. This discussion has been great.

I guess it would depend on how each system handled their dates times internally. However it's not worth it for me, since I now longer deal with some issues on a regular basis and I have all my time stamp routines worked out for if I do.
