Dear list members, We are pleased to announce the release of LiveCode 8.0 DP 9.
Warning: this is not a stable release. Please ensure you back up your stacks before testing them. *Release contents* *Browser widget kind* The browser widget kind has been changed to "com.livecode.widget.browser". As a result, browser widgets currently saved to stack will need to be replaced with new ones. *Segmented Control Colors* Four new properties have been added to the segmented control: - segmentColor: the background color of the unselected segments - segmentSelectedColor: the background color of the selected segments. - segmentLabelColor: the label color of the unselected segments. - segmentSelectedLabelColor: the label color of the selected segments. *Alignment Pane and Geometry Manager* The above panes which were missing in previous DPs have been reinstated for DP 9. *The effective rect of stack on Linux* This has been made more accurate. *Extension folder locations within the IDE* If you write plugins, or have code that relies on the location of extensions then please ensure you use the provided access functions to locate them. *40 bug fixes* *Known Issues* - Cef Browser (and therefore the dictionary and browser widget) does not currently work on 32-bit Linux - HTML 5 standalones do not currently function when they contain extensions with dependencies. *Getting the release* You can get the release at http://downloads.livecode.com/livecode/ LiveCode 8 is still in development so we’d love to hear any feedback you have on it. There are a number of features that we’d like to implement but aren’t ready yet and the existing features are subject to change during development - we can’t guarantee that extensions written in Developer Previews will continue to work the same way in later versions. Please report any bugs encountered on our Bugzilla at http://quality.livecode.com/ We have a forum available for discussing LiveCode Builder at http://forums.livecode.com/viewforum.php?f=93 The LiveCode Team _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
