You might also take a look at this: https://livecode.com/extensions/calendar/1-0-0/ Hi Dalkin, The calendar would be very helpful, thank you. I think I am going to make the first iteration with a string just to get it done, and hopefully I will understand enough to add it to the next pass. Kris

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 exampl...

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 Haha, yeah the UI is not great, I figured I would remake my problems as worksheet stacks after I solve them, and share them to the forum. That way when some...

"Baby" Richmond here. Let's start by making a 2 card stack with some buttons: - SShot 2021-10-25 at 20.48.07.png - SShot 2021-10-25 at 20.48.44.png - at the moment ONLY the NEW MEETING button contains some code: on mouseUp go to card "NEWMEET" end mouseUp and the second card of the stack is called ...

I am not sure why tutorials seem to miss what people will use their products for. Because of a lot of blue-sky thinking. "Blue sky thinking refers to brainstorming with no limits. With this approach to idea generation, ideas don't need to be grounded in reality. ... Eventually, through this process...

I love that you guys are so active on this forum, it really helps us novices keep going! Not much done today unfortunately. Read up on arrays but didn't really understand yet. I am not sure why tutorials seem to miss what people will use their products for. Making a ball bounce or putting random num...

Thanks again xAction for all the info. I am struggling to understand it though, I literally have a day's worth of programming knowledge and it feels like you are speaking another language. I think I have a good start, and I will take time this week going through the tutorials you posted above to bet...

End of Day One of Programming in LiveCode-- I got a lot done! A card was created for each page shown above. All navigation buttons are coded and lead to the expected page. A Sub stack was used to load all my imported buttons from the prototype. I even added some visual effects on a few card transiti...

Models of interface design: really easy to see what you are getting at: An immage is worth a thousand words. 8) Right? The UI is much easier when you can see it all laid out. Getting started on the backend stuff now. Will report back shortly when I had a chance to go through all the materials you a...

Final screens. this time the spam blocker has decided I cannot post 3 posts in a row... It would of seriously been much easier to post my link to the prototype so you could click through yourselves but I guess I understand what the forum is trying to protect against. I do hope I reach that post coun...

Hello, Thanks to you both for your time! I am likely to use both of your suggestions as my understanding on the scripts provided is still a bit hazy. I am 41, but have taught children for years so I won't feel talked down to reading your lesson plans. Programming has always been my Achilles Heel, so...

Hey xAction, thanks for looking at my post. I will check out all your links for sure, and I do have the time to devote to learning LC. Just struggling as a lot of the tutorials I've looked at are outdated. App Academy (one of the kickstarter rewards I got so long ago) mentions things that seem to no...

Additionally, I am using the last version of Community. Ideally I would like to apps for mobile platforms with LC but I want to have a good grasp on using it before I pay for iOS access. Thanks again.

Hi all, I've been a lurker in the deep shadows of LiveCode for too long. Former Kickstarter here, unfortunately I never got around to doing anything with it. I struggle staying on task with tutorials, often as they don't directly apply to the things I wish to do. Recently I started taking a Figma Cl...
