Turns out I was too stupid to find it

Oh, that means I'm not too dumb to find it Grazie ancora MaxV!

Hi MaxV thanks for investigating! Actually with the UTF-8 wrapped in quotes there is no problem now with the open file - write to file approach, with "Ενυδρίδα" before I was meaning a silly example of good outcome, sorry :oops: Is your approach of put into url more recommended? I'm still on time of ...

Just tried omitting the UFT-8 altogether, but apparently it still is needed. With open file tFile for "UTF-8" text write I get Ενυδρίδα in the file. With open file tFile for text write i get a row of interrogation marks. As for the original problem, I guess it was the missing quotes all along. I don...

Just for the record, in case somebody gets stuck with the same thing as me, the blog post missed the quotes. With "UTF-8" instead of UTF-8 it works.

I will try MaxV's solution, though. I didn't even think about that possibility, thanks!

Is the repeatCount of the image set to zero? In that case the animation will be stopped. Maybe you could when the answer is correct to start animating it indefinitely, or to any positive integer to loop it just a number of times.

I was trying to follow the instructions here: https://livecode.com/examining-unicode- ... ting-text/

But LC won't accept this line:
The card script gets a red dot when I apply it, but no error is shown.

Any ideas?

Maybe this is one of those obvious things I'm not able to see for some reason, but... Where does one create an account in RevOnline (or LiveCode Share)? No matter where I search (LC Filee > Share, the Lessons, the User Guide...), I always end up at a form asking me for credentials I should already h...

May I bump this?

Was this idea further elaborated? The only related information I have found is a post in the LiveCode blog called Lost in Translation by Georgia Hutchings on October 23, 2014 (sorry, my account permissions won't allow me to put links here).

My Spanish is great

@Klaus,

yes, yes, it makes sense now, but my brain was very busy running into the same wall over and over

Oh!

It was the parentheses!

I feel stupid now

Thank you Klaus and Craig!

Grüezi wohl, Klaus, and thanks for the welcome! Well in fact I was not expecting the command to return anything. Elaborating a bit more on my pseudocode: command putSomeWordsNicelyAroundTheUI pAlistOfWords pAdifferentListOfWords -- chew pAlistOfWords and spit it on the card as a navigation menu -- c...

This is my first post btw so: hello all! I'm trying to make a custom command take two parameters in this fashion: command twoParams pOne, pTwo -- do things with pOne and pTwo end command I'm calling it as twoParams("foo", "bar") , and I was expecting to see that pOne = "foo" and pTwo = "bar" (same a...
