LiveCode Forums

I'm not sure where the best area for a suggestion is, but in the Mobile Native Essentials pack there are currently two pickers, a date one and a time one. It would be good if there was just a plain picker control as well. The time and date are great as they can in integrated into the design without ...

Thanks again for the replies, I have heard from Scott now and have an old backup as well I found on an old hard drive I have put into the roofspace! The controls still work, when I bought them Livecode was at version 2.7, that's good!

Thanks, I have used the contact form but had no reply so I was wondering if his site was abandoned and perhaps he might call in here from time to time, or someone might know how to contact him some other way. I can see he posted most of his work publically in 2018 at http://tactilemedia.com/blog/201...

Yes, it all works now, thanks. Ive set up a few simulators with different screen ratios and it works perfectly. Todays challenge was to get the group on the page to extend down to the bottom of the newly sized stack and have that have a scroller, it was surprisingly easy with some of the examples he...

Hi, Many, many years ago (10+?) I bought an external from Scott Rossi called tmGauge 1.06. Does anyone have current contact details as I have lost the control but would love to be able to use it again. I have dug out a backup copy, annoyingly on a CD but have no computer with a CD drive any more! Hi...

Please ignore this. I was just using the last two numbers in the screenrect, the working screenrect does return the numbers I need in all four values returned, I just had to take off the 24 it returned in the second result from the last to get the working screenheight I wanted. Now I have the workin...

Is there a way to get the effective / working screen rect for Android devices. Ive tried the screenrect, the working screenrect and the effective screenrect but all return the same result, the screen rect including the status and navigation bars. I would like to know the actual area available for my...

Hi, I have installed the latest livecode and it seems to insist on making the background grey, it has always been transparent before. This is only a pain because it hides the android simulator. I can go to preferences and change the colour, and also hit reset to get a transparent background, but whe...

Sorry, another quick question! Is there a known way to style a combobox so it looks ok on Android, they look pretty horrible at the moment when left with the default settings from the desktop. Im trying all the settings without much look, and cannot see a 'native' combo box, in fact Ive managed to s...

Hi, Im trying to port over a desktop app to Android (and iPhone when I get one), but have run into an early problem with data files. My app creates and uses a few data files and a couple of databases. I setup the base path for these as a global and reference that throughout the app, but I can't figu...

My old indy apps still credit runrev, is there an updated 'portions' credit to livecode I should be adding to my about pages? I am sorry if this has been mentioned elsewhere, I could not find it with a pretty extensive search and there are so many documents over the years I thought someone might hav...

Thanks, Ill take a look. Thanks for the 1970 tip as well, I can catch anything outside of what I would expect, but would not have thought about it. I had thought I might have had to look at setting up a browser component, loading some HTML picker in that and then getting a result back as this would ...

Hi

Ive been away from Livecode for a while (about 6 years!).

It looks like the native controls for mobile have a datepicker, bar code reader etc, but I'm just wondering if there is a datepicker widget anywhere for mac and windows to save me having to re-invent the wheel?

Thanks

Andy

Thanks, guys, I appreciate the suggestions.

I have certificates from Apple as part of their developer program, but can anyone recommend anywhere to get certs for Windows apps? I remember having to give details of address and phone etc, but I was a company at the time with a dedicated phone line, now I am a single person with a home phone. Can...
