Overlapping MOVE commands (iOS)

I have 8 graphic objects on a screen. When a button is pressed, these objects, using the MOVE command, move from point A to point B, change direction and move from point B to point C. Currently the moves happen sequentially, one starting when the other finishes. I would like to have them overlap, if...

Re: Conflict between on closecard handlers? (for iOS)

Thanks all for the replies. Once again, with your help I got things back on track and working. A few comments: 1) @dave - Thanks for the pointer on simplifying the "loc" command 2) @klaus - I didn't know visual effects didn't work between stacks (until Dixie pointed out the solution in the dictionar...

Re: Can no longer load app onto iPhone (iOS 8.1.2 problem?)

Fixed. I guess. Slept on it and went back to try tonight. It seems that the time it takes to transfer from Xcode DEVICES until it is usable has changed significantly after upgrading iOS. Previously, once I added the app to the iPhone via DEVICES, I could launch the app within 5 seconds of transferin...

Can no longer load app onto iPhone (iOS 8.1.2 problem?)

Since I started working on iOS apps a couple of weeks ago, I would create a test version of the app in LC, save it as a standalone, and load it onto my iPhone 6 to test using the DEVICES window in Xcode. I have been doing this a dozen or more times a night for the past 2 weeks. Tonight, I made the t...

Re: Sending an email on iOS using Mail.app

OK - I found the mobileComposeMail command. When I use it on the iPhone, the LiveCode app exists and goes to the home screen - but nothing else happens. The code in the button is: on mouseUp mobileComposeMail "Test message", "email_address_here" end mouseUp where the email address above is not the r...

Sending an email on iOS using Mail.app

One card I have in a stack lists contact info. There is a phone #, web site, and icons for Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Google+. There is also an email address listed. Using "launch URL" I have set up all the web site, social media sites, and phone number to all activate and launch their respect...

Re: A swiping question

Thanks all for the help. A few things: 1) I realize touch is for mobile and mouse if for desktop. I was just trying examples I found to see if I could get it to work with either. I did see where folks had said it could be written so it would work with either - but I could get it to work with neither...

Re: A swiping question

Have tried this code I found in an example as well. No errors - but nothing happens when I swipe in LiveCode, iPhone Simulator or installed on my iPhone 6. Any ideas? on touchStart pID ## When the user touches the screen put empty into sCoordinateArray["start"] put empty into sCoordinateArray["end"]...

Trying to implement a swipe gesture for iOS. I have a stack with 9 cards. Each card has one image on it. I want to swipe left or right on a card to go to the next or previous card. I found this example swipe script in another online resource and pasted it into the script of the stack: on mouseDown p...

Re: This should be simple

Thanks! That worked. Not sure why the original method didn't. I think it should have.

This should be simple

Very new to LiveCode here but have done a lot with HyperCard and SuoerCard, but it's been a while. Trying something that should be very simple. I have a stack (for iPhone 6). There are two cards: "splash" and "main_menu". I want the stack to launch, show the first card "splash" for 3 seconds and the...
