LiveCode Forums.

I believe their main focus now is custom application programming for larger corporations and businesses. LC still welcomes small developers like us but we aren't the primary target group now.

I think this is something that LC has to implement, check with support to see where this requirement stands.

It's like it buffered lots of the scroll down action, and was trying to catch up to that action before reversing. Using stam's test stack with the 10k rows and filling the scroll buffer, it took *12 seconds* to start reversing. I don't have an answer but I can confirm that the preloading of subsequ...

In English the diminutive is "ie", which is why I got "Jackie". I didn't like it so I changed the spelling when I was 13, thus introducing all kinds of confusion among strangers and acquaintances.

Some here do not know that Jacque is a woman, nor how to pronounce her name.

But jwack???

I'm pretty easy with whatever people call me or how they spell it.

Are there any invisible characters in the field, like carriage returns or spaces that would create an invalid date? To be sure, you could use this: put word 1 of fld "startday" into sday put word 1 of fld "startyr" into syr That would remove any invalid characters. BTW, if you do not put the date in...

When you save a stack, LC actually creates a new copy and deletes the old one. When the new one runs it's like you just opened it and all normal messages are sent. You can try locking messages before saving, or just type "save stack TestSOStack" in the message box.

Brilliant.

I'm late coming into this because LC has blocked me from the forums and I need to use a VPN to get around it. Sometimes even that doesn't work. It has something to do with the recnt DoS attack. Anyway...I still get the daily digest so I know what's going on but it's tedious to respond. I wonder if t...

One solution that might help for both conditions is to set up the stackfiles property in the mainstack. That allows you to use the short stack name while the engine uses the long file name.

Probably never as LC is supposedly running hell-for-leather towards the web-based-thing. LC has stated they will support the classic version for 3 years, which is at least until 2027 depending on when they started the countdown, maybe through 2028. Someone should write a bug report specifying what ...

Jacque.

I know that an iPhone has this "sentence" feature. a period followed by any number of spaces will automatically make the next "ordinary" character uppercase. But isn't the OP trying to do this in a LC app?

It's possible. I may have read "Android keyboard" wrong.

This isn't a LC thing, it's a keyboard setting. Which keyboard are you using? I use SwiftKey, and the option is in the keyboard settings. Are you using the native Google keyboard?

The only problem with SVG widgets are the bounding boxes - unfortunately the empty space in these will intercept mouseovers and mouse clicks so the empty spaces overlapping other graphics will cause this to fail. I've done this with native LC graphics. The trick here is to set the opacity of each g...

I haven't been able to access the forums or any Livecode site page for 2 days, the connection always times out. I tried 3 different browsers on several devices with the same result. Today I used a VPN to access a server in Germany and got through immediately. My VPN is still on as I write this. Anyo...
