Hi again. My other issue is with the updated app not running in anything over iPhone 5 or iPad 2 in the simulator (and perhaps on hardware - sourcing). It quits before getting to the end of the openStack call. Again, almost nothing has changed in this update. I'm now publishing from 7.0.4 (previous ...

Hi. I have a couple of questions: I'll post the other in a separate thread. I hope someone can help. Firstly, can anyone explain why, after upgrading to 7.0.4 the standalone app is now 4 times the size it used to be (now 80mb)? When I last published (using 6.6.2 i think) it was around 20mb. Nothing ...

This is a great help. I'll check in a pre 7 version. And I appreciate your tips.

Thanks a million!

Kind regards, Paul.

Hi. (not sure what happened - I posted something on this a few hours ago and it has vaporised. Anyways...) I have a student who is trying to control a simple Arduino board to switch lights and trigger thing from a desktop Livecode application. We're having trouble in communicating with the Arduino. ...

a computer cannot do what a human brain can do, nor will it ever.

This is worthy of a new thread in the 'Consciousness, AI and Machine Learning with Livecode' board.

Ok all. Resolved it - as it happens the help on 'files' was very useful! Thanks.

HI again all. Heads up on this. I now have something working quite well. I have Apache and mySQL running on this Mac (easiest for beginners to download MAMP). And I have written a small PHP script to take an input and write it out to a local text file. This is then read by a Livecode desktop app. Al...

Hi again Jacque. Thanks for your feedback. How do I have the Livecode desktop app running fullscreen on the server receive the message from the PHP script? I'm totally lame when it comes to server-side scripting - no clue. Sorry to keep looking for help on this - keen to know a preferred route - wou...

Hi. Thanks for your response here. That explains why I can't get anything running between mobile and desktop. The question is, if sockets are not in fact supported in mobile, then do you have any suggestions on a way to do this? I suppose I could run the desktop machine as a webserver on a private L...

Hi again. I'm struggling a bit with this issue still. Any advice on how to set it up would be really appreciated. Iam simply trying to make a mobile iOS app running a Livecode iOS app communicate with a Mac running a Livecode OSX app. Here's what I have done: Server (OSX) card script: on openCard ac...

Ah - right.

So I can just use a switch statement in eg. scrollerDidScroll to determine what controller is scrolling. I get it. Thanks.

Kind regards, Paul.

Thanks Mark. Good advice! I'll let you know how I get on.

Kind regards, Paul.

Hi. A student of mine is looking to build a Livecode app as an interface for his final year installation. The app should be able to control external hardware eg. switch on lights and control another Mac (being used to drive a faked TV). The app is being design to run on an iPad2 (I know that this qu...

Hello there. Following this thread up... I appreciate that I can create many native mobile controls by using doing something like: local mobCntrlA, mobCntrlB on openCard mobileControlCreate "scroller" put the result into mobCntrlA mobileControlCreate "scroller" put the result into mobCntrlB end open...

THANKS JACQUELINE AND MALTE!
