Accordion for LC

[bn]

Recently "StrongBow" wondered whether there is an Accordion for LC

Has anyone seen this: https://livecode.com/elements-accordion/

and I thought it looked nice and pretty useful.

I realise that Stam did an Accordion but that works a little differently and used a datagrid adding a bit of complexity. (Look for it on Livecodeshare)
I decided to take a try and posting here a version that is a work in progress but I would like to ask for feed back on what is lacking/not working.

There is a question mark in the stack which shows a field explaining how to change text and some sliders and button to do some basic maintenance operations.

It was fun sliding texts in an out all day...

Kind regards

Downloaded, but could not get any action at all on the main group. Neither clicking, double-clicking, dragging did anything.

Hi Craig,

the only thing that I can think of is that I saved above version as "Livecode" from LC 10.0.1 (rc2).

Here is a version saved as "Legacy 8.0"

Could you please try this one?

Kind regards
Bernd

I can open and use both versions with LC 10.0.0!

I am at home with 9.6.1 Community, Mac OS 10.15.7. I can use all the live text tools. They work fine. But the main accordion is not doing anything.The message watcher shows the usual, "mouseUp", etc.

I see no errors in the debugger through the main group "mouseUp" handler all the way to completion. I will try tomorrow with my licensed version.

Works fine with LC 9.6.3 community.

Hello Bernd, thanks for the sample stack, pretty neat and nice that you put all the extra controls. Very easy to see how it works. Worked great for me in ver 9.6.13.

OK, works fine in my machine at my office. Cannot imagine what the story is at home, since I develop LC stuff there as well.

Hello Bernd,
This is fantastic – thanks for sharing! It works great in HTML5.

I like the fact that the groups are self-contained, so after editing, they can be copied. This is very smart

Thanks again,
Rolf

Hi Rolf,
I am glad you like the accordion.
Currently I am pondering how to change the text of the fields other than drag-drop or copy.

Kind regards

Hello,

An improved version of Accordion.

You can now reorder the tiles

And you can also edit text of Header and Body via a PopUp widget that it generated on the fly

Some performance increases for web deployment.

See Help and Accordion for more info.

Kind regards

Hello,

A slightly improved version of Accordion (0.6.1): it is now all "flat" (in the sense of material design), code cleanup.

Recommended version.

Kind regards
