Klaus, I am referring to runtime, not author mode. I'm looking for the code, not condescension. It should be obvious from my initial question that I am referring to runtime. Of course it's possible to place image over image in author mode. But it is not obvious on how to do that with code at runtime...

Krause,
How did you do that?

All, I have a substack of cards, 1024, x 570. It's labeled SubStackCards. I have a second substack of cards filled with frames (transparent backgrounds), called SubStackFrames. The frames were built in PSD and exported as transparent PNGs. I'm trying to place a card frame from the substackFrames ove...

Hi all, Using LC 9.0.1 Community on an i7 Windows 10 machine with 16Gb ram. So, I have a substack called "AboutUsStack". In the substack is a text field labeled "aboutustext" on a card labeled "AboutUsCard". I'm trying to place the text of the card in the substack into a field on the main stack, wit...

Full code:

on opencard — the card where the field dummyfile resides
ftp://host/user:pass@host/dummyfile.html”
end opencard

No error checking. I deleted it to see if that was an issue.

Last piece of code I tried:

ftp;//“host/user:pass(at)host/dummyfile.html”

I would like to upload a field in my stack. The field is composed of html. I’m using LC 9.0.1 Community version.
I’ve tried everything in the manual and all I get is “error.” Obviously, I’m writing garbage syntax. What is the proper way to ftp an html field to my server?
TIA,
John

In Director 12, where I’m coming from, there is a construct called “lists,” and used to store data like so: [“A”, “B”, “C”] etc. To get at the data, one uses syntax like listName.getAt[1], etc. Is there such a thing in LC 9? If so, what is it called?
TIA

All the scripts worked! Thanks to all for the guidance. Now, onto more issues in another post.

Newbie, coming from Director 12 to LC9. Some of the constructs are very similar, some are not. For example, http & ftp are quite different. I’m using the following code in LC9 and nothing happens: (dummy url) set the text of field “capture” to URL “(url)/test.txt” I have a field named “capture.” So ...
