Re: Import as Control Error Message
It won't work for anything; screenshots from the desktop, downloaded images from the desktop, etc.

Import as Control Error Message
Hello, I have "imported as control" many times in my short programming career, and it has never NOT worked. Until today, when I am under a tight deadline. I have tried importing the image from the desktop and my folder, I have tried importing it as a png and a jpg and still nothing. I get a very str...

Re: Script won't work once I create a standalone app
Thanks for your help! I couldn't actually figure it out and ended up taking a shortcut--I didn't actually fix the problem but created a workaround.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Script won't work once I create a standalone app
Hello, I have a bit of code that I've used on multiple cards that resizes the text of all buttons on a card as the user resizes the stack. It works perfectly fine during development, and it continues to work for all but one card once I create the standalone app. Basically, once the stack is resized,...

Mouseleave doesn't show up on the message watcher
Hey! I am having an issue getting the mouseleave handler to work. I have a program where a field gets created in the middle of a line graphic and the field is supposed to show up when the mouse is over the graphic, and disappear when the mouseleaves. The field is only disappearing about half the tim...

Changing the icon in the ask/answer dialogue boxes
Hello, I am wondering if it's possible to customize the image that appears in the dialogue box that appears when you use ask/answer commands. In the livecode dictionary it mentions creating an image (e.g. image id 8799) and putting that image id into the global variable gRevSmallAppIcon. This seemed...

Applescript launching program, but not switching to it
Hi, I have a program that is supposed to switch to the game pacman during it. I've got it to launch the pacman program, but it stays in revolution and doesn't switch windows to pacman (this is important because it's for an experiment). Here is my code: on pacmanproc put the text of field "Instructio...

Play audio files while presenting text
Hi, We have a series of audio files to present on a program, but while the audio files are being played, we want to be able to allow other things to be going on (presenting text in fields on the current card). Is this possible to do? It is not one long audio file, but a series of shorter ones that n...

Re: Fields resize
Sorry to be a bother--I figured it out. The updatesize handler that adjusted the dontwrap property was only called BEFORE the new text was put into the fields, when it should have been after. Silly me. Thanks for all of the help!

Re: Fields resize
I am pretty sure the properties stay the same, because when the field is recreated it is created from the same templatefield as the original was. And the maps are saved so that multiple maps can be reopened on the same card at later times. This is for a psychology experiment. Simply hiding the field...

Re: updating lines
Also, I can't figure out how to apply the "repeat for each" command to the above code. Sorry--I am just a little confused by the syntax for that.

Fields resize
We have a program for creating concept maps, and a feature that allows the positions of all of the fields to be recorded in a text file. When we want to 'open' that same map, it just calls on the text file and recreates the fields in the positions they were in when the map was saved, and inputs the ...

updating lines
Hey, So we have a program that allows users to map various concepts and the main components are fields and line graphics (users connect the fields with lines, basically). The lines automatically update so that when users move fields around, the lines associated with the those fields move with them. ...
