Is anyone seeing a problem with android apps when the user shakes? I'm seeing this error in my Google Play dashboard a lot with my latest version:
[base.apk] com.runrev.android.Engine$2.onShake

My app does not have any motion listeners, so it's not my code dying. It looks like Android hands the ...

Dear Trevix,

I'm glad the stack was useful to you. You are right about its limitations. I wrote it to create the One Big File of all the code that I could feed that into Claude for analysis. Saving the scripts separately either in a flat file or directory structure was an afterthought (and it shows ...

And daily digests are back. Thanks to whomever fixed this!

Anyone know what's happened to the digest function of the forum? If you click on "Digests" tab in the User Control Panel (https://forums.livecode.com/ucp.php?i=241) it throws 500 server error. I keep expecting this to get fixed shortly, but at this point I don't think it has worked in over a month ...

The Create Classic segmented control has a new design feature where the control's hilite color is assigned lower Alpha values when it's not in focus. (https://discourse.livecode.com/t/colors-of-a-segmented-control/311) I'm sure some folks really like this, but it doesn't look right to me. So I ...

Has anyone used tsnet on android with public/private keys for SFTP transfers successfully? It works fine on Windows, but on Android, it always fails with an "Authentication failure" error. I have set "ssh_private_key" and "username" in the tsnet settings and confirmed that the "ssh_private_key" path ...

I've been wanting to do a series of checks on my code like making sure that all queries are parameterized, database calls are checked for success or failure, etc. I started by searching for every "revDataFromQuery" (for example) in the code and then going to that script and checking it manually, but ...

I do not believe that you can do this in Table mode for a DataGrid. But you can definitely do it in Form mode. Since you put "normal" livecode fields into a form, in your datagrid script to populate the form, you can assign the htmltext of the field just like you can any livecode field.

So if the ...

Has anyone done any work on how to make a mobile app properly use split screen?

I have a mobile app (Livecode 10) that works well on iOS and Android. It uses "the effective working screenrect" to get the size of the screen and resizes appropriately. "the effective working screenrect" gets the ...

Has anyone used Samsung's Remote Test Lab to test a Livecode Android app? (https://developer.samsung.com/remote-test-lab) I just discovered it, and it seems like a nice service. It's free for Samsung Developers (which is also free to sign up for), and it lets you upload your app over the internet to ...

Part of the legal arguments that Apple made in their case against Epic defending their exorbitant cut of all profits from apps distributed through the App Store was that they are providing a "valuable service" to users and developers by insuring that no malicious actor could ever counterfeit an app ...

I *think* this is intentional. When you install an app from an app store (Apple or Google), the app store makes it impossible to install an identically named app which did not come as a legitimate update from them. So the various app stores cryptographically sign apps that you upload to them for ...

I am trying to get the external .dylib file from the following project working in an iOS app: https://github.com/trevordevore/iosclipboard

The included "iosclipboard.livecode" project makes it seem very simple. It includes the .dylib file in the "Copy Files" section of the Standalone Application ...

I'm posting this here because it took me a while to figure all this out from a number of different sources. And inevitably, I will need this information in the future but have forgotten it. So I am doing my future self a favor by putting it into the forum in one place so when I search for "datagrid ...

I believe that it's a problem with the backdrop (View->Backdrop) on Windows. When you bring up a modal dialog box (one that is meant to stay on top), they appear behind the backdrop. Hence you can't see them. But you can bring them to the foreground by clicking on the Livecode icons in the dock, or ...
