Re: Why me?
Craig, Would it be too much to ask you to make a small sample stack that shows how you populate and retrieve the custom properties of the field? And then post this sample stack here? I use custom properties a lot and never ran into issues you describe. It makes me nervous if there are problems lurki...

Re: Image Manipulation
Hi Emily-Elisabeth, I found a slightly newer version of Photo Room that has all the current syntax, no need to look into that. That version is fast enough to process larger images. I would try with roughly 640 by 480 or so. Photo Room caches a version of the current image for undo. After emptying it...

Re: Image Manipulation
Hi Emily-Elisabeth, The latest version of Photo-Room I have is here. Please mind that it was written in a rather old version of Revolution (the former name of Livecode). It works (mostly) but at the time it was written Christopher-Lee Bodell used instead of -> numtochar -> numToByte charToNum -> byt...

Re: Problem importing Audio File
Hi Lagi, I tried to do an Audio import using 9.6.10 (9.6.9 crashes at startup on my Arm Mac using Sequoia 15.7.2) and it imported an .aiff and .wav file without problem using "select file/import as control/ audio file". The audio file showed up in the Project Browser and it played also. Kind regards...

Adventures into matchChunk and regex
Unfortunately "matchChunk" is not well explained in the dictionary. The task was to break up short texts into 3, 4 or 5 paragraphs. I manged that by counting full stops "." and determine the number of sentences that should make up a paragraph. However the texts could contain decimal numbers and the ...

Re: Alphabeticising a word list?
Here is a version for custom sort that lets you define the alphabet used and which letters take precedence when sorting. It sorts not only the first letter but sorts all letters of a word according to the preferences. Could not test it with old slavonic since I have not access to an old slavonic alp...

Re: Alphabeticising a word list?
I suspect that it's going to be something Richmond is trying to generalise for multiple alphabets. sort international might work for many situations but it uses the system locale Devanagari was just an example. The point I was trying to make is that it says that "text" type of sort (implicitely the...

Re: Alphabeticising a word list?
Richmond, from the dictionary entry for sort container: Name: sortType Type: enum Description: If you don't specify a sortType, the sortType is text. • international: sorts by collation according to the system locale • numeric: sorts by number. (Use this form if the sortKey consists of numbers) • da...

Re: Slot Machine emulation
Thanks Mike, The main trick is to double the number of referenced images in the fields. That way you can simulate a endless scrolling by setting the scroll of the field to show the appropriate image. Also I like the idea of a game loop: all scrollers register with the game loop and the loop triggers...

Re: Slot Machine emulation
Hi, Here is something similar to a slot machine I made many years ago. It uses a game loop for animating three scrolling fields. It has a lot of eye candy and features. I had to provide images in 2 zipped folders because of size restrictions. The images are just test images. Put them into 1 folder a...

Re: A Procedural Graphics System
Mike, unfortunately the handler for "Linear Graphic (Angled)" is missing. Here are my versions based on your versions for the other scripts I have been working on. And a script to invert colors that is extremely fast, just for your interest. Here I was inspired by your Truchet tiles: https://forums....

I am glad it works for you.
There is nothing really to understand here except that you hit a bug in LC that is now fixed.I'm trying to understand what is really happening.
Kind regards
