Re: Copy and rename a button - which takes precedence?

Hi M-A

You can use 'it' to identify the reference to the pasted control.

Here is some example code:

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
     copy button "marko"
     paste
     set the name of it to "polo"
end mouseUp

Re: Android error: Could not compile service support class

I like your method Jacque. I am going to add it to my internal document for the next time. Glad you like my view on the Android situation. I have to learn it every time I set up a new computer. Together we can help each other through this. I found Android to be a lot easier than the steps needed to ...

Re: Android error: Could not compile service support class

I set up an M1 Macbook Pro yesterday to build Android apps with LiveCode. I hope this information is useful to others looking to build Android apps with this setup. If anyone gets stuck anywhere, let me know, and I will update this information with more details. My goal is not only to be able to bui...

Re: Why is LiveCode not recognized more as an app developer language?

But, while game creation is undoubtedly fun, I have a feeling that Roblox, and a lot of other things of that sort, allow game creators to "get there" without learning some of the very necessary programming skills that will allow them, having made their game, to transfer skills learnt during that ga...

The GLX script editor has amazing color control. Back in the day, Jerry added the chalkboard mode per my request.
Chalkboard mode?
It was dark mode before dark mode became a thing. We were ahead of our time. :)

Re: DASH docset updated to LC 10 dp4 what yoy

Bernd turned me onto the internal colorization routines a while back, and they're incorporated into the glx2 script editor, fwiw. I find it unfortunate that they're pretty rigidly constrained, though. While you can set custom colors for the different classes/groups/keywords, you can't add to or cha...

Re: DASH docset updated to LC 10 dp4 what yoy

You will find it in the stack "revseutilities" Thank you, Mark. In hindsight the name makes sense, and knowing what it is makes it easy to look for. :) I'd tried tracing the call chain, but I'm guessing that function is a callback from _intetnal, or did I miss where it's called from script? It has ...

Re: Change button label by pressing the command key

@mtalluto: I do not really understand; what's the mouse got to do with the problem I stated at the start of this thread? Hi François. If there is no other user input than to press the commandKey, my suggestion will not help. If the user moves or clicks their mouse during the check, then moveMove wi...

Re: PUT . . .

We made some handy code that will find orphaned puts in our LiveCode projects. I'll post it here in its entirety. It references some UI that is part of a bigger Developer Tool we use in-house. You can focus on the relevant handlers and change the field reference to something else. You could also jus...

Re: Change button label by pressing the command key

I would consider changing Richmond's fine code every so slightly to use on mouseMove and apply a flag (optional). You may not need the flag. It will depend on what you plan to do next. The mouseMove check may be enough. //script local local sTrackCommandKey on mouseMove if the commandKey is down the...

Re: IOS submission to App Store

Hi Klaus,

The iOS store rules have not changed. The good news is that Appli only downloads database records. All of the code comes pre-downloaded in the player app.

Re: IOS submission to App Store

Hi Simon, All apps will work offline. Any saved data during the offline period will automatically sync once the app has access to the internet again. We will charge a monthly fee that will allow developers access to LiveCloud and Appli on the same account and bill. As many do today, you are free to ...
