Re: How to copy backgroundPattern of a graphic ?

Bonjour Zax, this is not possible! It is just like the icon of a button, which is also the id of an image. If you delete the image, close the stack and reopen it, the icon of the button is gone! Same for a bgpattern, the image is neccessary for the pattern as some kind of "reference". Means no image...

Re: Android paths for apps data files

Hi cerebrumaggravated, welcome to the forum! On the mobile platform we have write permission here: specialfolderpath("documents") So all user data need to go there! Hint: This is very different from the Docs folder on a desktop machine, on mobile it is a special folder inside of the application pack...

Re: A quick compliment for the livecode team

Yes, Metacard got me hooked on X-talk!
I had HyperCard installed on my first Mac Lc in 1993, but did not yet "get" it at that time. :-)

Re: Not many people know this.

How did you use the menuitem "Rotate..." for an OVAL graphic if this menuitem is not available for an OVAL graphic? 8)

Re: Issue with with images in arrays

Hi bryonenger,

what they said! :-)

And please get used to put QUOTES around names: image "sheep"!
With each new version the engine is less forgiving to "sloppy" coding,
so something like this might throw an error in future versions.

Re: Not many people know this.

Hm, I just tried this, but the graphic is still an OVAL!?
However one can still use this for animation with:

Code: Select all

...
move img 1 to the effective points of grc 1
...
Also works with oval, regular polygon, rectangle and roundrect graphics!

Re: Text fields not displaying entered text

Hi Laura, welcome to the forum! Some questions: 1. Where did you place the script that you posted above? 2. It is not clear where your user(s) need to enter their name! I would recommend something like this... Create a button "Enter your name" or something with this script: ## This will open a dialo...

Re: How to replace the windows `beep` sound

Hi Glenn,

a bit late for the party, but did you take a look at the "beepsound" entry in the dictionary?
Sounds like this might be helpful, but maybe not... :-)
