Re: Color to Black & White

Thanks Bernd, that is good to know. LiveCode has gotten too complicated and harder. There is not enough documentation and examples. What documentation that is out there is slowly becoming incorrect and obsolete. This forum is one of the few places to get help and I have noticed the decrease of activ...

Re: Color to Black & White

Bern, It may be faster but not better. Compare the results and you will see the difference. I have a stack to demonstrate but it is too large to load. LiveCode really generates large files. My test program with only 30 lines of code total on 3 buttons ended up 5MB. Even the zip file is too large to ...

Re: Color to Black & White

Stam: Yes, you are right. Thanks for pointing that out. I was wondering if someone would ask that question. I debated at the time how far to take my explanation. It was late at night and the post was getting long. I should have least acknowledged the numbers in the LiveCode lesson. I used the "avera...

Re: Color to Black & White

If it helps, here is what little I understand about color palettes, images and pixels. I apologize if I am repeating some things that you already know but I do not want to skip anything A color palette is a list of colors and the hex values to produce each unique color. The hex values are 3 numbers ...

Re: Usability questions

These are all very creative feedback ideas. Which of these sits better with end-users? ATTACHMENTS End-User Response #1.livecode.zip Each has tradeoffs and is better in different situations. The first one is nice but can be annoying if there are too many questions. (Too much clicking). You also have...

Re: Combo box: text selection

Another way to allow the user to add choices to the list: add an item "new" to your list of choices and when the user chooses "new" it will ask for a new value and add it to the future list of choices on menuPick pItem switch pItem case "new" ask "new list item:" put it into pNewItem put cr & pNewIt...

Re: LiveCode Lagging Behind with Xcode Versions

This is what I did that worked. Try doing them in order: 1a. Download Xcode 13.2.1 and install it. - Move this version into another folder or rename it (e.g. xcode_13_2_1) - You do not want it overwritten when you download a newer copy of Xcode. - This is the latest version of Xcode that LiveCode (v...

Re: LiveCode Lagging Behind with Xcode Versions

Thanks, but I need to build the standalone.

I guess my only recourse is to create a virtual machine and install an older version of MacOS and build it from there (if that is possible II've never done that)

or wait until RunRev releases a new version that works with MacOS 13 and higher.

Re: XCode version for LC 10.0.0 (dp4) and IOS 15.6

Hi Stam, Thanks for replying. The message does say "usr". When I copied the message and eliminated 'line feeds/cr's, I must have accidentally changed it. I was using Xcode 15.2 because it will not let me use Xcode 14.1 I get the message "The chosen folder is not a valid iOS SDK. Selected Xcode must ...

Re: XCode version for LC 10.0.0 (dp4) and IOS 15.6

I am on MacOS Ventura 13.0.1 I tried running Xcode 13.2.1 but I get the error - "In order to use "Xcode_13_2_1.app", you need to update to the latest version.The version of Xcode installe...

Re: How can an image be searched?

@dunbarx If I remember correctly, each pixel has 4 bytes: Alpha, R, G and B. So you can get the color of any pixel with the code put charToNum (char (pixelStart + 1) of image1) into tAlpha // byte #1 is the Alpha put charToNum (char (pixelStart + 2) of image1) into tRed // byte #2 is the Red put cha...
