I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do exactly
But you need a local variable to keep track of the current column, lets call it curColumn
Oh need one for the current row, we'll call it curRow
You probably need local variables to keep track of how many colums and rows you have
using your ...

Ah, I've held that book in my hands back when there were bookstores.

The only way to know is to try. I hadn't the slightest idea except something about 'grid..visit cell..knock down wall." I understand that BASIC code only as far as what the commands do in general, but what they are doing all ...

Trap the currentCard like so

You fill in the actual name between <>
on openCard
if the currentCard of this stack is not <"the short name of the target card"> then exit openCard
end openCard


Using the number of the currentCard instead of short name of 'currentCard'
on openCard
if the number of ...

Neat demo, I like the flocking. Changing the send in 40 milliseconds to 2 milliseconds gets 80FPS.

WELL HOT DOG! IT WORKED! Thanks Klaus and n. allan!
So what changed from 8 to 9 that killed this kind of feature ?

Well the new stack works the old ones pop an error dialogue with no info.
Oh wait, i fixed something?
I moved the OpenStack to card script of the old teapot and it worked.
Then I ...

There was an extra bracketed variable in the cylinder loop causing it not to draw correctly, stack updated in post above.

I guess its a dead end for free loaders using last community edition. Maybe there will be another pandemic and I can get a low priced Livecode again.

For table fields you keep all the data as TAB delimited values
put that's really hard to show online and if you open it in a standard text edtior the columns can be all over the place
so comma separated is the easy default, maybe have fudge some commas in regular text though before storage...


Bob ...

I'm not clear about your big old table field, is that something the user is actually going to look at?
If it's just something for keeping all your data, just a big comma seperated (CSV) list of text store in the stack custom properties will do the job.
using the previous cards full of fields example ...

Oh there's a whole stack there! I thought it was just a picture and ran with the first thing I'd improve: the UI!
Less labels, more user space

It's A GIF, open in new tab/window for animation

Top button activates script which copies each of the "TOP ...

A card is just another form of an array, but the engine holds and displays its various kinds of data and has all the functions and keywords set up to work with the array already, like
put the properties of this card into tArray
put the keys of tArray
returns all the properties of the card

Is ...

Posted in 2014, I'm guessing not LC9 Widget Builder thing.
Downloaded 322 times and nobody got it working...

It's not entirely a bad proposal. I see all manner of things "just work" in a web browser with Javascript.
I can compile and run over 30 programming languages online through javascript.
I build something with HTML5 from Livecode, it's megabytes of files and it doesn't do anything.
Scratch? Google ...

Oh you said something odd.
On "Client_info_card" the text fields for Name, Company, Phone Number, and Email are blank. They should each read their function until the user adds new info to the field.

read their function
? ?
Fields just sit their doing nothing until the user does something to ...
