I have two more questions for the LC gurus:
1. In 2011 this post was written https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=8616
By now, I'm hoping that an option to wrap text in the script editor window has been added to LC, but...I can't find it. The "/" doesn't always work for me and it is a "royal pain" (no offense meant to any royal members of this forum). As the previous forum user mentioned, an option in preferences is a common feature in every IDE that I've ever used. Is there someplace in LC to set this option. If not, is there a current workaround that doesn't have problems?
2. This one is a tricky question for me that is related to coding:
When I save some text and mix it up with some variables to display in a field, the field adds a bunch of returns. How do I make everything flow in one line without the big spaces.
My code (as well as the code process that was shared with me by others):
Code: Select all
...
//field name2
put gDollName & " had just come to live with a seamstress named " & gSeamstress & "." & gDollName&" wanted a new dress. Hers was tattered and worn." into field "name2"
As always,
TIA for your encouragement and help.
