Limit to the amount of data??

Post by urbaud » Sun Apr 28, 2013 11:37 pm

Is there a limit to the amount of data one can put in a custom property? If there isn't, could it be used like a external file?

I've seen it used to store an image :shock:
I think it's the same as variable 2 GB, someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Maximum size of a custom property is unlimited... what that means is it is limited by available memory and by LiveCode's total address space of 4G (4,294,967,296 bytes) on 32-bit systems...
