My executable gives Gtk-WARNING in Linux

I've just done my first functional LiveCode program, and made an executable of it. It generates a random password. The length of the password can be entered into Entry field boxes, or increased/decreased using Little Arrow controls. When running from Linux command line, it gives the message "Gtk-WAR...

Re: Saving content of image box

Hi Klaus, thanks for your reply. The filename is created from an "ask file" command. I thought it was absolute, but now I'm not so sure. I'm creating the program on my Linux PC at home, but I'm writing it for one of my tasks at work so it will be running on a Windows box there. The aim of the code i...

Saving content of image box

Have been getting really frustrated with LiveCode this weekend :x I'm writing a program to resize an image to 150 x 150. I've finally got the selected image to show up in an Image control (imgNewLogo) in the correct size. Now trying to save that as a new image. The code for my file save button is on...

Binary clock exercise - stays static

Hi This is my first attempt at a proper Livecode program, a binary clock. Have compiled it, but it just stays static on the time that I ran it in the IDE. To get it to run there, I had to say which function I wanted to run, it didn't just start when changing from pointer tool. Pretty sure it's somet...

Re: Remove old installs from Linux menu

Thanks for your replies.
Right-click on Menu lets me edit it, and under Programming I can then un-select the other versions. I'd been trying to right click on the indiviual items previously and not having much luck.

I will also try the other option to delete the oldest version later.

Remove old installs from Linux menu

I'm running Livecode on Linux Mint 14, and have updated from 6.1.3 to 6.5 (rc6) and then 6.5.1 Under "Programming" on the Mint menu, I now have a shortcut to each of these three versions. Does anyone know if there is a way to just have the most recent install listed? I'm not sure if this would be a ...

Re: Setting a button to enabled only if fields complete

Thanks for the quick response. That makes a lot of sense, and I'll get that put into my code.

Setting a button to enabled only if fields complete

Hi all I've been learning LiveCode this weekend by adapting a Python/Tkinter script I made at work for generating a report from a SQLite database. Happy with how it has gone (lots of Google-ing to find things out), but now trying to fine tune it. I've got a "start" button which checks input fields a...
