Re: creat game" flappy birds"

Thanks. BTW, I found my most recent version of the website and sent it to you. I also discovered that the website is complete except for any downloads (PDF's, stacks, student programs, etc) I have all the originals so it is just a matter of finding where to put them in the unzipped website) I guess ...

Re: creat game" flappy birds"

Stam, Thanks, Those are good ideas. I am not that familiar with GitHub. I logged into it but did not see a path to creating a wiki. I am not sure if uploading it there is the answer. I don't know how many teachers are comfortable with GitHub, especially those who do not have CS degrees of experience...

Re: creat game" flappy birds"

Greetings all, I have finally found a useable copy of my website "LiveCode - Learning to Program by Creating Games, Apps and Programs". It was buried on an old backup from "way back when". When I first started teaching LiveCode in the classroom, I was learning along with my students. I was also lear...

Re: Color to Black & White

Thanks Bernd, that is good to know. LiveCode has gotten too complicated and harder. There is not enough documentation and examples. What documentation that is out there is slowly becoming incorrect and obsolete. This forum is one of the few places to get help and I have noticed the decrease of activ...

Re: Color to Black & White

Bern, It may be faster but not better. Compare the results and you will see the difference. I have a stack to demonstrate but it is too large to load. LiveCode really generates large files. My test program with only 30 lines of code total on 3 buttons ended up 5MB. Even the zip file is too large to ...

Re: Color to Black & White

Stam: Yes, you are right. Thanks for pointing that out. I was wondering if someone would ask that question. I debated at the time how far to take my explanation. It was late at night and the post was getting long. I should have least acknowledged the numbers in the LiveCode lesson. I used the "avera...

Re: Color to Black & White

If it helps, here is what little I understand about color palettes, images and pixels. I apologize if I am repeating some things that you already know but I do not want to skip anything A color palette is a list of colors and the hex values to produce each unique color. The hex values are 3 numbers ...

Re: Usability questions

These are all very creative feedback ideas. Which of these sits better with end-users? ATTACHMENTS End-User Response #1.livecode.zip Each has tradeoffs and is better in different situations. The first one is nice but can be annoying if there are too many questions. (Too much clicking). You also have...

Re: LiveCode Lagging Behind with Xcode Versions

This is what I did that worked. Try doing them in order: 1a. Download Xcode 13.2.1 and install it. - Move this version into another folder or rename it (e.g. xcode_13_2_1) - You do not want it overwritten when you download a newer copy of Xcode. - This is the latest version of Xcode that LiveCode (v...
