Re: Saving the scroll position in a scrolling list field

Hi Glenn

I think you might be looking for the vScroll property, rather than the thumbposition.

I hope that helps.

Re: Transparency to a button icon background

Hi

It looks like the Opaque property of your button might be set to true, try setting it to false. You might also need to set 3-D and Show border to false. It looks like you have already set Show name to false.

Kind regards

Re: Universal Import/Export Business (not James Bond Related)

I wonder if you might find the properties property useful. This is an array that specifies an object's properties and values. You could get the properties of the objects you are interested in, convert the array to something you can write out to file using arrayToJSON or arrayEncode and save it to fi...

Re: Network Access for Standalone Applications

Hi If you want to try option 2, which is probably the simpler option, you would need to apply the suggested changes to the Android manifest template in the LiveCode app. You said you are on Mac so to find this file choose "Show Package Contents" on the LiveCode app bundle. The file you need to modif...

Re: Network Access for Standalone Applications

Hi This might be because of the version of Android your devices are using and the fact that the RESTapi is running http unencrypted. Starting with Android 9 cleartext support is disabled by default which prevents http connections. There is a bug report for this which includes some options for workar...

Re: Transferring an Array from desktop to mobile

Hi Glenn If the array data is read in from file you will probably want to include the initial version of the files in the Copy Files pane of the Standalone Application Settings.
