I still use HyperCard and wonder if it has become easier to port HC-stacks to LiveCode? Do you know if there are any apps for that? And if not, would it be difficult to write them?

I use: repeat with i = 1 to the number of lines of fld 1 if the textcolor of line i of fld "text" is not empty then set the hidden of line i of fld "text" to false end if end repeat This is taking time too. Any suggestions how to speed this up?

I want to ensure all lines are visible, as I have hidden some before. I use: repeat with i = 1 the number of lines of fld 1 set the hidden of line i of fld 1 to false end repeat This is taking over 1 minute to complete. I have tried removing all styling from the text so e.g. backgroundcolor is empty, etc. Same result. Any suggestions pls?
