Re: Quick Code Question

Hello, don’t try to “pause” LiveCode—it will freeze the UI. Instead, validate and only proceed when the field is long enough. Simplest approach: on returnInField if the number of chars of me < 6 then answer "Enter at least 6 characters." exit returnInField end if go to card "NextScreen" end returnIn...

Re: Livecode to control smarthome

Full Disk Access
Add Terminal . app
Quit and reopen Terminal
Run codesign again

When you interact with an image, its visibility is set to 'false,' and the name of the image is added to a spare inventory 'slot' in an SQLite database. When you select the item in a data grid and click the 'drop' button, the co...
