Re: the driverNames not finding usb to serial controller on Big Sur

Yes they used to appear in the driverNames. I worked on a stack during lockdown and (almost) had it all sussed. Reading and writing serial ports (almost real time). Big Sur came along and the stack no longer works. I have been following the issue since it appeared on Arduino Microcontroler forums. T...

Hi-DPI scaling on Linux 64

Has anyone found a cure for the hi-dpi scaling issue on Linux 64 yet? I'm no spring chicken and I can barely read anything on the IDE when I run it on Zorin OS or Elementary OS in Hi-DPI mode. https://i.imgflip.com/1p5p4u.jpg It runs well on these OS' so far everything works ok for me apart from the...

Re: the driverNames not finding usb to serial controller on Big Sur

I added all the permissions I could to LiveCode in security and preferences. "Whole Disk Access" was the only one that had a checkbox entry for LiveCode. If I put shell("ls /dev/tty*") I get 2 devices: /dev/tty.usbserial-14530 /dev/tty.usbserial-4 If I put shell("ls /dev/cu*") I get another 2 device...

the driverNames not finding usb to serial controller on Big Sur

I was quite happily reading and writing to usb serial ports up until upgrading to Big Sur. The usb to serial devices use the FTDI chipset. You could query the driverNames and it would list the serial ports no problem. After the upgrade to Big Sur the USB to serial drivers were known to be broken bro...

Re: Another attempt at 3D external using openb3d

Sorry for the late reply I normally get notified of a reply on here but it appears not... WELL HOT DOG! IT WORKED! I'm glad someone had some success. I can't really offer much help with the building of standalone and including externals etc as I rarely build them. I can only assume if it works in th...

Downloaded 322 times and nobody got it working... I did loool. Thanks for letting me know. I got this going again just now (26th Oct 2021) using this recipe. Originally this was tested on 32 bit windows XP so that's what I have used here in a virtual machine. Download and install LiveCode V8.0.2 (T...

Re: encrypt command "at x bit" being ignored

I couldn't see a way around this so I have spent a few days writing my own blowfish stuff. This is very rough (and fairly slow) at the moment but will suit my needs for the time being... Apologies for the code but I want it to be deliberately hard to read. I have left in some comments. This passes t...
