Quickbooks External

Anyone have any luck using the Quickbooks SDK with Livecode? I've tried registering the DLL as an external with mixed results. In my standalone settings, the QBXMLRP2 script library is available, which I guess is a good thing. But when I do put the externalPackages of stack "home" it does not show u...

Internet Date Question

How is the time zone figured when using "internet date"? I have manually changed the timezone on my Mac from Eastern to Pacific, and the change is not reflected in the internet date, so it must be something else. I can't imagine it actually pings a site on the web because it would require a persiste...

Re: Datagrids and Geometry

I was able to fix the scrollbar issue by making the initial column widths large enough to force the scrollbar to appear in the IDE.

How do I make the columns automatically resize?

Re: Datagrids and Geometry

No and No. When I drag the right side handles in the IDE, I get no scrollbars and the columns do not resize.

I have a behavior assigned to this DataGrid. Could it be that a message isn't being passed, so it doesn't know what to do?

Datagrids and Geometry

I have a created a Datagrid with the both scrollbars set to Auto. I have also assigned Geometry to this Datagrid, so that when the stack resizes, the datagrid resizes with it (attached to the right and bottom of the stack). When I make the width of the stack smaller, I do not get the horizontal scro...

Re: Dynamic Objects Not Positioning Correctly

Here's the section that's giving me grief. The names of some variables have been changed to protect the innocent. In a nutshell: The script steps through an array of appointments, and creates a text field in a specific location with the appointment info, and a transparent button on top of that field...

Re: Dynamic Objects Not Positioning Correctly

That's just an example I was using. The actual variable names were newFieldName and newGraphicName.

Re: Dynamic Objects Not Positioning Correctly

I've tried it both ways, on and off, set before and after the positioning controls. Didn't seem to make a difference.

The default I'm using is set lockloc to false.

Dynamic Objects Not Positioning Correctly

I am creating 2 objects dynamically based on data: a field and a button. I am creating them inside an existing group. For reasons unknown, the new objects are ignoring the commands I am using to set the top and left of the object for positioning. I know the syntax is correct. set the top of field ne...

Export graphic

Is it possible to export a graphic (rectangle, line, freehand polygon, etc) similar to how you can export an image? I am trying to export a customer-drawn freehand polygon as a JPG or PNG. I"ve looked through the dictionary, and couldn't find anything that come close. It looks like export is for ima...

Re: Image Library

Using 5.5 on a Mac.

If I put the images in the library on a stack they work fine, but since my app has multiple stacksni need to be able to access the images globally.

Image Library

I have created a new Image Library to contain all of the graphics I need for the app I am working on. I add the icon to the button from the new Image Library and everything looks fine. I exit the IDE and restart and the icons are missing.

Do I have to include the library (like stacksInUse)?
