So, on our product download pages, we list the versions of macOS and Windows we're "officially" compatible with. Apple releases new versions of the macOS so often and, as a small business, we can not afford enough macs to be running every one. We often forget to update this list when a new macOS com...

Hi LC, Apple today announced macOS Tahoe and LC doesn't yet support Sequoia released on September 16, 2024, when can we expect it to be supported? What is missing in LC for Sequia support? My apps, built under LC9.6.13 ot 10.0.1 run under Sequoia. I'd just like to know, so I don't accidentally run ...

Have you checked the menuMode property of the button to make sure it is set to a type that responds to the menuPick message? Just another suggestion. menuPick is likely not broken. Most likely there is some reason the menuPick message is not being delivered to the handler script. menuPick is only se...

Check the layering of the objects in the group (you said you had a grouped button). Im may be possible the layering got messed up and the menuPick is being sent to an object in the group other than the one with the script in it.

Just a suggestion.

I will speculate that there may be a difference between "utf8" in Livecode and "utf8mb4_general_ci" and a collation for a character field in mySQL? I set my collations for all varchar or text fields as "utf8_general_ci" and use textEncode with "utf8" before posting to the database. When I read data ...

The encoding of the SQL database has to match what encoding you are using with textEncode before storing in the database. See https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/charset.html for the database side.

I appreciate that predicament as I've been in the same situation (power outage, with power for a laptop and no internet) - although these days I have a WiFi hot spot loaded on my phone, so, in a pinch, I can turn it on and get internet for my laptop through my phone (assuming cell service still is a...

We did make allowances for off-line activation - like Livecode - because we do have "field" researchers using our tools where there is no internet access, but it has been very very rare. I would say 99.99+% of customers have internet access where ever they are using our software.

We use a "phone home" feature in our apps. Not for theft protection per se. We use it to collect usage data to see how often out apps are being used. When someone buys out app, they get a license key, the key needs to be enetred in the app, stored in an encrypted licenses file (as you can't easily m...

Downloaded 10.0.1rc3 (about 1 minute) and installed (<5 minutes). Most of the install time was dues to Windows security or Norton AV asking me if the installer was safe and did I really want to continue. This is on an HP Pavilion laptop with an i7 processor, 16GB RAM and plenty of disk, running Wind...

I installed 10.0.0 STABLE (and 10.0.0 RC1) on Windows 11 (latest updates) on an HP Pavilion laptop with completely normal install times (a few minutes). Some Windows security components (2 different ones I think) give me several (3 I think if I recall correctly) security prompts that you have to res...

The FAQ states that the royalty would be up to 5% and no more - but if there is a minimum sum of $500 required, that means for this to be 5% and assuming no one will pay more than $50 for my mediocre software, I would have to sell 10,000 copies of my software! 10,000 copies (over however long) x $5...

The badge is displayed because the app is free. You are not paying us a percentage on that app. We are considering a mechanism where you can pay some kind of fee to have that badge removed (obviously not based on payments for the app since its free). We'll publish that when its ready. We are open t...

I would recommend you add parenthesis to ensure the math is performed in the correct order. See below. Just extra insurance againt some sort of weird operator precedence behavior. on mouseup put 29.9 into endSpace repeat until ((endSpace / 6) = 5) --repeat until ((endSpace mod 6) = 0) --repeat until...

You may also want to support this requested PolyGrid enhancement: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24394 When using the multi-line contentType, unless the length of the wrapped text is predictable (to you and the app you're making), if the text wraps below the row height, the user can no...
