I currently am running LC 4.6 Commercial and would like to know if anyone can help me out with why I would want to upgrade to 5.5. I haven't built much in the LC yet but hope to build a sorta internal Invoicing, Inventory, POS program for our company on Windows and Linux. Some of my main features I ...

Is it possible to have a datagrid form with column headers that can be sorted? Like basically a combination of a table and form in one really i guess. Like shown here: http://s3.amazonaws.com/screensteps_live/step_images/runrev/7302/Data_Grid_Forms_display.png?AWSAccessKeyId=19JMR1FABXNXQR79AGG2&Exp...

Can someone tell me if they can deploy my app to linux and if it look the same as it does in the IDE and windows. When I deploy to linux the words style look up in the header area of the app appear off the screen to the left. I have no clue as to why either. If anyone has any ideas after checking my...

Ok... Got it somewhat but my zoom image is well not quite right. It appears to not be scaling correctly and the zoom window just
ends up being a copy of the origImage. Anyone care to take a look and see what the problem might be?

Thanks townsend. I understand how it got there. What I don't understand is how to change the image being shown in origImage. Attached is what I have so far. Would you be able to advise whats wrong with this why its not working when i mouse over my image? I seem to be doing everything the original ex...

Ok... I see that and understand but I dont have a clue how origimage is set. When I open the script it of course shows the image in OrigImage but the filename is blank so how in the world does the image become loaded in the origImage field in the first place? You see my app sets the image filename i...

Thanks townsend,

I can't figure out how the initial image on origImg was set. When you look at the source there is no value. Any idea?
The reason I ask is I'm trying to figure out how to use this idea in my own app but if i don't understand it i of course
cant use it

hope you can help.

I posted this message on the Summer Academy forum but thought I might get more feedback on the main forum. Does anyone know where I can find an example of how to create an image zoom similar to http://www.professorcloud.com/mainsite/cloud-zoom.htm. I would like when the user mouses over an image it ...

will do Klaus. I always want to code properly

Thanks a bunch. I'll play around with this example more.

I'll give the groups a try. thanks!

Thanks Klaus. It seems to have worked without the parenths. i will put the parenths for good practice though.

I think I may have figured out the problem. I think my text box was wider than the screen to the left side and for some reason this caused by label box to go from being right justified to left justified and then it ended up starting at the very edge of the box off the screen. ill have to check for s...

dont think that would matter since the license is online and not on the computer per say i believe.
i installed on my computer at work and thats how i noticed the trial license still out there. no worries
nothing i cant live with.

When running my application i built on windows and compiled the standalone for linux the linux version shows a slight different layout of a label field. the label field which is 198x28 set at a location of 33x24 appears further over to the left in linux than it shows in windows. has anyone else expe...
