Thanks Klaus and Sparkout

I had thought that this was a permission problem and I didn't realise Android was case sensitive.

So I'll do as you suggest - use documents rather than Documents and test for the file's existance.

Many thanks again

Hi Klaus

Thanks for the quick response.

I'm not copying but setting as you suggested - my code for this is

lock the clipboard
set the fullClipBoardData["jpeg"] to pImageData
-- gives access to the system clipboard as jpeg
unlock the clipboard

And I do check for the existance of my parent ...

Hi

I have a puzzle app which performs entirely as expected in the IDE and as a Windows standalone but not on Android. I have the Android SDK installed correctly.

When I deploy the app to my phone (Android 9) for testing it behaves as it should until the puzzle completes and I use the option to ...

Hi Klaus
Thank you very much for your very quick reply.
Yes that did it! I have to say that I'm more that a bit embarrassed to have made such a simple, basic error! Just overthinking the problem I guess.

Hi

I want to access the metaData contained in a number of jpgs (paths1.jpg; paths2.jpg; paths3.jpg etc) that I have - camera info, title, decription etc so that I can manipulate the data with LC
I have installed exifTool in c:\Windows directory
and have tested the following from terminal

Just to provide an update. I downloaded the SDK package and installed it again using the terminal. Everything now works as it should. Brilliant.
Thanks for the help.

Hi

I too am having installation issues on Windows 10 with LC 8.1.3 Indy. I have installed and re-installed Android SDK a number of times, tried the SDK tools approach a number of times - all with the same result.

In the end I went for the Studio Option. I know its not really needed but all the ...

Thanks for the reply Richard and the explanation. I had wondered if that was the case because, as you said, its logical. Good to have it confirmed.

Ok.So the solution was simple.
I extracted the code which checked the number of lines of formatted text and made it a specific handler positioned in the card script of the 'playcard' card. This handler, which simply looped through the four fields altering as needed, was called in the PreOpenCard ...

Hi

Does the formattedText only work in a field on the current card? Is it not possible to retieve the formattedText from a field on another card and modify the text accordingly before going to that card?

I have multiline text over 5 lines which I place in a field on another card before going to ...

On further research and experimentation it would seem that this is a 'common problem' with android. Apparently it can take some time for the emulator to get up and running fully - in my case about 3 minutes- before a rendered screen appeared (my emulator was always plain black before). I was just ...

Hi

I've install the latest version of Android on my system and when testing the app in the emulator API 4.3.3 it gets as far as 'attempting to install app on target device' when the following error occurs:

Installation of app failed: Error: Could not access the Package Manager. Is the system ...

That did the trick! Thanks very much. I knew it had to be something straight forward.
Again many thanks.

Hi and thanks for the quick reply.

I created an extensions folder here G:\My Documents\My LiveCode\LC User Extensions\Plugins and set the location in LC preferences. Restarting LC still only shows the 'default' plugins present in the installation folder.

I've been away from LC for a while but in ...

Hi

I want to install a number of plugins to use with LC 7.0.6 commercial.

I have recently re-installed Win 7 on to an SSD and have the default 'My Documents' folder on a separate disc to the OS.

I have installed 7.0.5 and 7.0.6 and neither has created a 'My Livecode' folder in the 'My Documents ...
