load different cards dynamically

Post by zinnsoldat08468 » Sat May 31, 2014 10:44 am

Hello,

I would like to load different cards dynamically (see picture).

The function "start using" can only load complete stack but not display a Stack into a rect. Is this possible?

Best Regards
Zinni

p.s.: sry for my bad english.

Hi Zinni,

1. welcome to the forum! :D

2. No, this is not possible!
And "start using" is doing something different than you might think. 8)

You may want to check these stacks, great learning resources for Livecode:

Hi Klaus,

thank you for answer.

I would like to make a little software with livecode which can be enlarged with plugins. Has an idea, to do this with livecode?

Hi Zinni,
Do you look for using to call differents stack from one summary stack ?
display a Stack into a rect
No directly, you have to write some scripts to resize your stack before
sorry for my bad english
Don't worry, this forum undergoes for long time my bad english and that is a good way to progress 8)

In German: ich möchte eine plugin Schnittstelle in eine Software einbauen. Ein simples plugin System.

In english: is this possible to load external stacks? I will create a Desktop Software with simple plugin System like this for PHP (

). All variants are welcome :-)

Hi Zinni,

no idea about PHP nor its plug-ins, but do you mean something like the plug-ins as found in Livecode in menu "Development"?
Are YOU going to write the plug-ins? If not, who will and will they also use Livecode?
Currently Livecode plug-ins only work with other Livecode stacks!

Sorry, still not sure what you are after... 8)
