My LC Standalone must save confidential datas in a sub-stack, so i use "save stack" for this, but the Windows "Program files" folder is read-only on windows (and i don't have any script to make the folder of the standalone read and write), so i prefer placing the app in a read/write folder. Windows ...

Hello from France -- I am Apple certified developper and I know how to create a notarized .app / .pkg / .dmg (using AppWrapper, Packages, DMG Canvas) -- But i have no idea of how to do this on Windows (7-8-10) platform. Paying to be a certified Microsoft developper is not a problem. The only things ...

I've made a video with a fresh new stack to explain the two bugs i've found, i'll send it tomorrow to Lc quality.

Hello In case if the post-install script of my .pkg fails moving files, i added this script i placed in the "startup" script of the standalone to move sub stacks. if the platform = "MacOS" and the environment = "standalone application" then set the itemDelimiter to slash put the effective filename o...

Hello From France. After two days fighting with this issue; i finally solved it. I'll try to explain it : during the standalone creation, the individual sub-stacks are stored in the /Ressources/_MacOS folder of the app bundle. This is the right place, because /Ressources/_MacOS folder is ignored dur...

Thanks for the response. My app must be installed in "Applications" folder and work "out of the box". I work on it for 6 months, and at last moment, a stupid write issue, this is really very frustrating... This kind of bad trip will probably make me abandon Lc for commercial projects and back to Fil...

Hello Lc bugs are driving me crazy… I have a sub stack in a standalone that stores some data, and i use "save stack stackname" regularly to save the stack. After saving as standalone (checking "Move substacks into individual stackfiles"), this substack works fine in old versions of macOS (10.9 to 10...

Hello jacque, thank's for replying. - I saved my stack as "LiveCode Stack" and "Legacy LiveCode Stack 8.0", with the same result: the combox boxes are still systematically bad drawn after saving and re-opening the stack. I was supecting that the problem was my "old" stack, but the problem exists wit...

Many thanks for your responses. - I started with HC 1.0 to 2.4 and switched to FMP after it's abandon, and i spent lots of money with LC until the version 1.0, but as LC is not my main dev environment, i'm still a beginner with LC, because even if i can re-use all the concepts learned with HC, it's ...

RESOLVED : LC was quitting because i added a "quit" statement on closestack in order to quit the standalone when the main window stack is closed. This statement was probably omitted when creating the standalone in older versions of LC. I checked "Destroy stack" in standalone settings, that does the ...

Thanks for your fast reply.
Can i send you the stack as attachment here in this forum ?

Hello from France LiveCode Indy 9.5.1 + macOS 10.12 I have little stack ( 742 Ko) created with LiveCode 4, i can still open it and create a standalone with LC 6.6.2 . I have opened it today in LC9 to make some changes; but the combo menu objets any many other objets have lost their "graphics alignme...

OMG, using a sub-script works in the runtime, even without the pMode param.
"Mille fois merci" like we say in France, Many thanks, you saved my journey !
But WTH why using a sub-script and not a simple script, mystery…

My problem is simple: i can compile my AppleScript to a classical app with Apple Script Editor, but even using the "execute only", the script can be partially read because it is not correctly encrypted. So the idea is to use LC to run this script during the "startup" handler placed in the stack scri...

Hello from France I come here after using LC 6.6.2 to compile a little app that only needs to do one thing when launching the runtime, aka running a 5 lines AppleScript (from a field) to mount a distant FTP server and quit, and i see that this bug is not corrected since version 7 ! Of course the scr...
