Re: Adding your own icons to the Navigation and Header bar widgets

Ah yes, I played with that stack too.
It took me a while to realise what to do with the .lson file.
But then I figured with only 4 icons wanted it was just as easy to add them as I did.
If I need more it is simpler than creating a new library. ;-)

Re: Adding your own icons to the Navigation and Header bar widgets

Sorry Richmond I have no clue as to the meaning of your stack. As for your post Jacque I am intrigued as to how you imported your SVGs into the header bar widget. I thought it could only accept icons (as stored in a library). Importing an SVG as a control produces an image object, which certainly be...

Re: Adding your own icons to the Navigation and Header bar widgets

Hi stam, drawingSvgCompile is for for building the binary string representing the SVG file. The "Icon SVG Library" has commands for adding icons but they all go to the "custom" library. I don't think there is a merge library command, although if there is it could be dangerous to use. You would need ...

Adding your own icons to the Navigation and Header bar widgets

Currently rewriting an app that use a bit of geometry scripts to handle different screen sizes and orientations. I thought I would try out the Responsive Layout with that navigation bar widget to handle moving my controls around. Worked quite well except the icons available in the IDE were not suita...

Re: add to icon family?

I read the dictionary entry for this but cannot understand how to use it, as far as I can gather it adds to the families available in the IDE only

add to icon family?

Hi all, Is it possible to add an svg icon to the icon family so that it gets included in a standalone? I have made/modified some icons and used the tools on revshare to create a family which I can use in the IDE to populate the header and navigation bar widgets. However they aren't included when I b...

Re: filter array

You would think so, wouldn't you. I tried with my dataset but found directly addressing the 2nd dimension directly was 30 - 50% slower! Three runs with my current handler 996,970, 1560 msecs Three runs with suggested: 2701 2998, 2960 msecs It surprised me. I guess accessing the second dim like that ...

Re: filter array

Not to be deterred I copied the dimension I waa interested into a 1 dim array (same key) and yes the filter worked as expected. I then wondered if tis was still faster than using a repeat and if "contains" structure to get the list of keys so I compared the two/ if thesearch is not empty then repeat...

filter array

I have an indexed array of text segments. I would like to find those elements of the array that contains a specific word. I thought FILTER would do this. I tested out using filter with the following code: on dosearch local thesearch, sctext --present answer dlog for search ask "Please enter the word...

Sub-to-srt now adjusts intervals

Hi, I have just added a feature to the sub-to-srt stack that will adjust the length of a individual subtitle to be no more than 3 words per second. I have quite a few old DVDs which I am in the process of digitising but which have no subtitles. There are also no subtitles on the web. I discovered Ma...
