Problems controlling sound volume

I've built a small timer app for my samsung Note 2 for my gym work. I needed a specialised timer that the standard offerings didn't meet. Also I wanted nice large buttons and numbers - easy to use when flat out during exercise :D . All that went quite smoothly for my first LC android app. However I ...

anyone heard from Curry Kenworthy

I have sent emails including follow-ups since mid January with no response. I may have identified a possible problem with wordReport on Windows 7 running under Parallels. Has anyone else heard from Curry recently (he may be away on holidays) or perhaps aware of this problem? Alex

Re: The Future Value of a Full Commercial Licence

I should also make the point (somewhat tongue-in-cheek) that my original comment was put on a non-hysterical basis :lol: Alex

Re: Strict Compilation Mode

I think the #pragma is a good one. Local overrides od the compiler would fit the job nicely. Alex

Re: The Future Value of a Full Commercial Licence

Hi, I have pledged and encourage all to do so, as I think the open source move is a good one. And, similarly, I see the company as fair and posted a similar comment on one of the other forums. :D

The Future Value of a Full Commercial Licence

Hi I may be misunderstanding the communications re the open source initiative. A recent email seeking support for open source valued the full commercial licence (all platforms and 12 months updates) at $500. The store has the current pricing of $1,499 for Complete with a yearly renewal of $749. I'm ...

Strict Compilation Mode

Hi, I have Strict Compilation Mode always set on in the preferences. With a previous background in more traditional languages, it makes a lot of sense to me. However many source code examples are built with this setting off. Is there a way of having that code treated separately in an application wit...

Re: Help Us Take LiveCode Open Source

Like others I immediately wondered about the value of the commercial licence that I already have purchased. I use LiveCode for commercial closed-source production so nothing changes. I believe a move to a dual licencing model may be a necessity to increase the use of LiveCode, especially amongst the...

Persistent values in deployed apps

Hi, I'm developing my first Windows & Apple app in LiveCode and am now starting to appreciate its rapid development capabilities. Like many other experienced developers from a traditional edit-compile-run environments, I have taken some time to understand the persistent nature of LiveCode values fro...

Re: problem with Deployment

It's wierd. The same application deploys okay with LiveCode on the Mac for OSX and Windows and runs standalone on both.

Also a simple 'hello world' on the windows installation deploys okay. :?

problem with Deployment

Hi, I'm building an application for windows and apple. It's working well (perhaps except more testing is needed!). I've built standalones from earlier copies of this application. When I save a new standalone nothing happens. It is as if I didn't select the menu option at all. Any ideas of what I sho...

Advice on variable scopes

Hi, I'm seeking advice on a technique I'm using as an alternative with virtual custom properties to global variables and some problems I'm having with this approach. I got this idea from one of the lessons. I'm creating a sub-stack called 'globals' as part of my application. This 'globals' stack has...
