Hi medzian456,
this is not possible with the built-in tools, and I doubt that there is a plug-in that can do so.
You need to create an external that does the job for you.

Thank you Klaus for your reply .
But I don't know what you mean with "an external"?!
There is an open source program with the objective-c language "zbar". Is that possible to use it?

an "external" (a DLL on Windows, and a BUNDLE on Mac) is a piece of software written in C or C++
(or whatever, I have no idea actually

) especially FOR LiveCode! that supplies functionality to
LiveCode that cannot be done with build-in means.
E.g. the revvideograbber, revdatabase, revXML etc. are all externals.

That would be an external application (NO external) that cannot be controlled via LiveCode,
EXCEPT if it is a command line tool that cou can control via SHELL calls.
