Hi all,
Is it possible to print a dg, line by line (some lines only, according to script). This is to create a report. I tried putting the lines in a field, but that did not maintain the column widths, they being dependent on the text width of the column content.

Re: Cursor visibility problem
Thanks. The hand is great. I haven't figured out how to keep it in my stack - it works for a while then reverts to normal cursor and I have to run the code again to get it back. How can I make it permanent ?

Re: Cursor visibility problem
Hi, Following your hint I looked some more and found some coding that I put into a button but it didn't do anything. set the lockCursor to true -- locking the cursor gives *you* control of the cursor from the system. So that you can set the icon. set the cursor to hand set the lockCursor to false --...

Re: Cursor visibility problem
Hi Jacque, I'm afraid my 'solution' did not last. For some reason - possibly after shutdown/startup - the cursor reverted to its previous hardly visible state whilst in the script and in the IDE, but changes to large and black only in the yellow headers. So, sorry if I misled you there. I tried agai...

Re: Cursor visibility problem
Thanks everyone, great stuff.
Klaus,
Having shut down and restarted LC it now appears that I have a stable bold black arrow to navigate with - just what I needed.
Thanks for your kind interest.

Re: Cursor visibility problem
Hi Klaus, It's a Windows laptop, Win11., so it should be ok....BUT Currently the situation is that the cursor varies between a heavy black I-beam and the default cursor. I also tried changing the cursor in Windows, but that does not affect LC. it's no worse now than what it was before, but I was hop...

Cursor visibility problem
Hi all, I've been having problems seeing/locating the cursor when editing scripts - old eyes are easily challenged! I took a look in the dictionary and tried importing a solid black arrow. I restarted LC and the black arrow was great - BUT, the arrow and script froze, so I closed down without saving...

Re: get name of flashdrive.
Thanks everyone for your kind interest. I thought I had a solution for anti-copying, but no, it was not to be. I guess I'll just have to live with that, and hope customers may be put off by some disinformation, or something like that.

Re: get name of flashdrive.
Hi Jacque,
Thanks, but - I'm a bit lost..What's a volume name? and how would it work (in simple logic terms, if that's possible..)

Re: get name of flashdrive.
Hi, I'm trying to make a security measure (of sorts). Basically, I have a stack on a USB stick. This can be copied, so, to try to stop that, I want the stack to run after checking a field, the contents of which match the name of the USB stick, and if there is no match, the stack won't run. So I have...

get name of flashdrive.
Hi all,
Is it possible to get the name of the USB stick that a livecode stack is on and put it into a field within the stack ?
