LC8: is set the hideconsolewindows to true broken?

Post by hairydalek » Mon Jun 20, 2016 10:25 am

I’ve moved a project to LiveCode 8, and found that in Windows, when I use

Code: Select all

set the hideconsolewindows to true
put shell (tCommand) -- tCommand is a string containing a command I want to run
in Windows, I see the black command window opening. I didn’t get this in LC7. How do you suppress the Command window from opening in Windows with LC8?

Hi,

just made a test with LC 8.01 on Windows 10 and did not see any console window popping up!?
What version of LC are you using?


Best

Klaus
