Well, it almost works. There are some processes that output nothing to the cmd line window except perhaps a line feed or EOF I am assuming at the end. These work fine with the following script: on ProgressBarWithProcess pStartValue, pEndValue, pProcess, pProgressBarName, pHideOnCompletion, pEndProce...

Thanks Jan, that's exactly what I was looking for. The process functionality works great!

Hi, I have a stack where I record a begin time and end time of running a shell command every time I run the command. I calculate the LastRunTotalTime. What I would like to be able to do is use this figure to display a progress bar while the shell command is running in the background. I can't figure ...

Hi Bidge, You might want to try using the shell function instead of launch and output the results to the msg box so that you can see what errors might be happening: on mouseUp rename file "C:\data2.txt" to "C:\merge.bat" put "C:\merge.bat" into tBatchCommand put shell(tBatchCommand) into msg -- or u...

Hooray! Thanks Ben and Heather,

That works for me as well.

Hi,

I am trying to add user contributed notes to Rev Dictionary. I registered for a login but when I try I get the following message:

Couldn't connect to serve. Please try again later.

I am wondering if this is a firewall problem. Is there a specific port I need to open up?

Thanks,

Larry

Thanks Mark and Bernd, very helpful!

I have a couple of thousand wave files that are neatly organized in folders and subfolders. I would like to create a Rev script that will recurse through each of the files and apply a shell command to it. I want to apply a LAME MP3 conversion to each file and output to the same directory structure (...

I found some solutions at:

I am appending outputs in a scrolling field and want the field to automatically scroll to the last line everytime I add new lines. How would I do this? I'm looking for something like "go to last line of fld 'Log'"

Help appreciated

Hi Mark, One of the pictures was originally a bmp, the other a jpg. I guess what I find really confusing is why standalone would function differently than when I launch the rev stack itself. I think that answer will probably help me figure out the problem. I copied some scripts from other stacks so ...

Why might pictures not appear in the standalone app that appear otherwise? The pictures are not referred to but imported into the stack.

Thanks,

Larry

Hi Mark,

I was incorrect about the size difference. What I was seeing was the tempory difference as revolution writes out the file.

I do have a substack with all of the artwork in it. Before hand it's 9683K. After running the script it is hardly any different ... 9628.

I don't get it ... your script works (apart from the compress this stack line). And the resulting file is somewhat smaller. Hmmmm. So you need to go to the stack and then iterate through ... that makes sense to me. Well Mark ... once again you have led me into the deeper mysteries of RunRev. Thanks!...

Hi Mark,

fDeleteThese is a field with a picture name on each line:

eg.

forwardarrow.png
reversearrow.png
search.png
add.png
correct.png
wrong.png
etc.

I normally don't include the extension in the stack name but this time I did.
