Re: Livecode Create - thoughts?

This is discouraging. What happened to "Programming for the rest of us?" I have LC now. I will have it forever. I have not needed nor been grateful for any new feature since the enhancement of the itemDelimiter to support strings of any length. That was a Godsend, the last one I can recall. I do not...

Re: Resize/move line graph?

Klaus.

It is what I meant. I would naturally have gone into the mouseUp handler and added a line at the end to send that message to the card.

Re: Resize/move line graph?

Klaus, before this goes back to the vault, Hermann said:
mouseEvents don't reach the widget, they are all captured by the widget.
Is that true? If so, why, and if so again, can you pass such a message explicitly, say to the card? That would put it back in play for LCS.

What Klaus said.

But I did enjoy reading a few of Hermann's thoughts.

Yipes. I did not look as carefully as Bernd did. Trevor, are you seeing this?

Re: Issues in clearing properties

Looking at your screenshot, perhaps you were thrown by the fact that you are able, in the inspector, to change the name of a key or element of a custom property but not delete that property? Anyway, see the dictionary for the tools you need. To bulldoze all of them: set the customKeys of stack "your...

Re: Issues in clearing properties

Hi.

I assume you mean "custom properties", because you cannot delete native properties.
Check out the "customProperties", er, property, and also possibly "customKeys" and "customPropertySet"

You have complete control over any and all custom properties.

Re: Multi-track playback synchronization

Richmond. A message that starts with Welcome! is probably best 'Well Gone'. Are you saying that the post just before yours was AI? If so, I am a little concerned, though impressed, that AI bots can reasonably join the middle of a conversation as opposed to writing an introductory note that simply se...

Skyler does not seem like AI, although AI is becoming a much better writer every day.

Re: Text in fields disappearing when switching stacks?

It makes no difference if the other stack is a substack or not. And what you describe is unheard of, impossible, if all you did is what you say. Text entered into a field stays there if you navigate elsewhere. As long as the stack is saved when you close it, it will stay there forever. How many hand...

Hard for me to understand what this rather hefty stack does. Can you give a short tutorial?

I do not recall that name. Did he go by an alias here?

Re: SEND sending me crazy

Richmond.

Have not tested, but a quick glance tells me this is a loop without end. Handler 1 calls handler 2, and then guess what handler 2 does.

Re: Field input of MAC address: filtered and nice to look

I am a little ahead of you, in that mine can handle single letter adjustments. Neither can handle multi-letter.

Yet.

Question, why do you hide the input field?
