LiveCode Forums.

Hallo Klaus, bom dia, vielen dank! :) What a pity, this is a really nice feature. Isn't there any workaround? Maybe someone at RunRev could tell us if this is planned for the near future? I am also dead curious about how the implementation of native mobile themes is going... Thanks! Fabricio Rocha B...

Hi fellow Livecoders, If I've got it right, an image which is "imported as control" must be placed in a card, will become part of the stack itself, then everytime you need to use it (as icon, etc), just choose them. In the other side, a "referenced image" is created as a "New referenced control" (me...

Dear LiveCoders, Would you have any suggestion of a good tutorial about dealing with groups -- more specifically, dealing with custom controls? I am trying to create a custom option menu for Android, with ICS looks: a line below a transparent button, an arrow in the right, etc. Simon did one and pos...

Thank you very much, Jacque. However I had already read most of this material, each of them some 5 times already (they're becoming a daily ritual, actually). The question is not about simple resizing and scaling of elements, but about a really different layout according to the available space. Like ...

Hi folks, sorry if this is not the appropriate forum section for this question. There are lots of mobile applications which show different layouts according to the device´s resolution, size and orientation. One layout for portrait phone, other for landscape phone, another one for landscape tablet. I...

Once again, no go. Same message. JDK path is /usr/lib/jvm/java7-oracle.

I also made a reinstall of OpenJDK 7 just for checking what happened... and I got the same message. The class bundle just can't be encoded...

Thanks for helping, Richard and MaxV. The "slave installer" expression was shown by the installer itself, after I gave my account password... I take no credits for it :) And yes, I installed Oracle's JDK 7. Before that, I tried to fool LiveCode with the OpenJDK directory, but it really did not fall ...

Hi all, Thank you for the tips. After a good while, tried once again to intall Livecode (6.5.2) in Xubuntu. The libpango tip really worked and I was able to install and run Livecode. The only glitch there was that I could not perform an install for "all users". The installer asked for my password bu...

Hi everyone! I don't know if this is the right place for such things, but as there are so many newbies like me trying Livecode in Android here, I supposed that this might be useful for some :) I created a script for translating the touchStart/touchEnd/touchMove messages into some common mobile gestu...

Hi all, Some more information which might help. Here is a test code, placed in the app's first card, which shows the described problem: local touches on touchStart tID put the mouseLoc into touches[tID]["pos"] end touchStart on touchMove tID, px, py if the number of lines of the keys of touches <> 2...

Dearest Livecoders, I am doing some experiments with a frontscript for detecting some usual mobile gestures. However, I am stuck on a strange oddity while dealing with pinch gestures. I have basically applied what I saw on the tutorial at http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/4069/l/11509-how-do-i-i...

Oh, thanks, Neil. I just thought it was me once again

Dear Livecoders, I would like to rate an user comment on the Dictionary, but I am told that I must login to revOnline or create an account. I follow the steps for creating a new account, but the e-mail with a password never comes. Then I tried to find revOnline, but was not able to. I found the page...

Thank you, Simon and Neil.

Actually I found a way to get what I wanted, in the LiveCode Users Guide, and Neil's example uses it. Using the generic type control it is possible to refer to a control by its name without a reference to its specific type.

Thanks!

Fabricio

If it could be useful to anybody, I made a small function which receives as parameters as many items you would like to be shown in a mobilePick, and returns the selected item string: function PopMenu set the itemDelimiter to return if the paramCount = 0 then exit PopMenu end if put "" into menuoptio...
