Re: Finite looping of audio

Thanks jiml, I think I'll go with that solution! If I'm nitty picking it may not end the sound after a complete loop, so sound may appear to be abruptly cut of. But since we already established the user isn't around to hear it so... And it is a really neat fix, only a single line of code, really lik...

Re: Finite looping of audio

Thanks richmond62, but I'm not quite following where I incorporate my "answer" statement in that loop. If you look at the code in my first post it's not just sound, I also have a popup displayed while the sound is looping, and when the popup is acknowledged by user it also ends the sound. This funct...

I found the convenient parameter "looping" to have the sound continue until the user have acknowledged the popup. play audioClip "Beep[dot]wav" looping answer "Timer ended!" with "O...

Re: GUI on diffrent tabs

Thanks Craig, I got a grip of the variables handling now I think. But I still have the issue of the routines in the stack can not access the controls if I'm in another tab/Card. I have for example this code in the stack, where optionHide is a Switch Button, and timeLeftDisplay is a Label Field on di...

Re: GUI on diffrent tabs

Thanks Klaus! That solved the problem of the unreadable global variable! So half of the problem fixed! Live Code is a bit different language, mostly to the better, it is more simple to use and easy to learn, but still, anything that's different from what you're used to cause headache sometimes.
