Thank you both for your help!

That's it! Much easier than I feared...
I modified your solution to… …to get the desired solution.
Thank you for this quick help!

I want to enter "(·)" into a word in a label at the position where a user clicked: "example" should become "examp(·)le" afterwards (it's for an educational training on hyphenation). I found the function clickChar. It returns the character the user has clicked on, which is fine. But how can I insert ...

Thank you, problem solved! I learned now, that's a feature...
Sorry for not searching answers in other boards than Linux. It never saw this 'feature' on other platforms.

Hi, starting LC 8.1.6 (64bit) on Fedora 26 results in a strange behaviour: the desktop is all covered in grey and just the toolbox is visible. Switching to another app and back (Alt-Tab) shows both windows, toolbox and menu window. But as soon as I create a new mainstack, I only have the mainstack o...

Hi Panos,

Great – with LC 8.1.1 RC-1 the problem did not occur anymore. Thank you for your help!
Best regards, Gian.

I'm desperately trying to sign my LC application for macOS Sierra to have it used by some friends without the Gatekeeper warning. I have a certificate which I'm told is valid, and in earlier versions of Mac OS X (and LC?) I was able to do the signing, but with LC 8.1. on macOS Sierra is something wr...

Jacque, thank you. Entered into my code snippet collection to hopefully be never forgotten.

Hi Jean-Marc, thank you for the hint. I was wrong with "target", which refers - in my case - to the menu entry and not to the focused text field, right? After switching to your solution it works great.
Best, Gian-Reto.

I'm stuck with the following problem (LC 7.0.4 on Mac): I have several text fields on my card. I'd like to give the users the possibility to mark all content of a text field as selected by pressing cmd+a on the keyboard, if the cursor is within the text field. I added a menu option "mark all" in Men...

Hi, I'm wondering if the brand new LC 7.0.4 (build 10030) is once again behind the actual Xcode development? Yesterday, Xcode 6.3 arrived on my Mac and yes: iOS is now no longer available as a target platform in my LC due to missing SDK (with 8.2 as the highest possible version). Can someone confirm...

Gian-Reto, Although I am not from RunRev, I hope you don't mind me trying to answer your questions. Mark, thank you for your answer. And no, I don't mind... :) What I try: I have a SQLite database (v3) file with some data. I'd like to build an interface for this data with RunRev. So, I use the buil...

Hello, I'm struggling with this SQLite feature in RunRev 2.8.1: Can someone from RunRev tell me, which SQLite versions are really supported by the bundle, please? I have an existing SQLite 3 database with which I want to establish a connection in Database Query Builder from RunRev. Building the conn...
