Michael,

That is fantastic. Very instructive code. RTF is a paine to handle.
I should start to use Claude also. I downloaded Claude but just tried a few very short things. Nothing compared to what you accomplished.

Kind regards

Craig,
It is what you describe in LC < 11, in 11 3-d also affects the scrollbar.

Kind regards

Hi, I just upgraded to 11.0.0 (build 25013). For some text fields, the scrollbars remain as the macOS standard (thumb is rounded gray on a white background), but for others, the scrollbars now have a square white thumb on a black background.

Could you try to check the "3-D" / "threeD" property ...

Hi micmac,

No wonder it does not work. There are a couple of function calls to functions that Claude did not provide. Ask him to provide those functions.

There is an erraneous repeat loop:

repeat with i = 1 to the number of elements of pBlocks
put pBlocks["type"] into tType
put pBlocks["data ...

Would it be possible for you to post the information directly on this forum?

The same goes for me.

Look for "put header" in the dictionary:

put header
Type command
Syntax
put [ new ] header header

Summary

The fact that "header" is colorized in the script editor should be a ...

Is it possible the OP is talking about the form "do as AppleScript", and wants some data to return to LC?

I think right now it is best to let the original poster explain in more detail what he wants.

KInd regards

Hi Stam,

I am not sure what the OP has in mind either.
I figured the OP has a Livecode thing running that uses the parameter from "service menu applescript" outside of LC to process it in a Livecode stack.
That is what the example shows. The AScript would be integrated in the external process.
I ...

The video in youtube looks very impressive. Thank you.

hi sipsuper,

Long ago I did some inter application communication using AppleScript. LC's AppleScript support is limited. Digging in my old AS scripts I adapted one to what I think is similar to what you have in mind.
The AppleScript script: (use apple script's ScriptEditor to trigger the AS script ...

I was intrigued by this thread because I am always a bit confused by addressing the custom properties.
@Paul
You could simplify the script of button to:

on menuPick itemPicked
put the itemPicked of me into field "testTekst"
end menuPick


Your first attempt did not work because you were ...

Hi Trevix,

Using the "inputTextChanged" command seems to be the way to go but I cannot figure out.

Maybe you could react to the "inputTextChanged" message to trigger a handler with

put mobileControlGet(tControlID, "text") into myText
then do your filtering on myText
and then mobileControlSet ...

The stack has 2 fields where you put the scripts to compare. You can use the whole scripts with all handlers and put them into their fields ("old" and "new"). If you put two completely different texts the diff can take a long time and you might want to interrupt it with command + ".".
The stack does ...

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

The question is how many sentences are there.
Kind regards

I have absolutely no objection to using Regex whatsoever, but IFF something can be done in xTalk 'pure and simple' why resort to it?

How do you resolve this?
