Re: animationEngine.livecode with Windows 10

Hi Erik,

Windows 10 doesn't require any tweaking. However, if you have a slightly older version of Animation Engine and a recent version of LiveCode, you may need to update AE or use an older version of LC.

Kind regards,

Re: Text Field Problem

Jamie,

Can you be more specific? If I click on a text field in an otherwise empty stack, nothing happens. Do you have any scripts? Can you post a picture that shows the problem?

Kind regards,

Craig,

I don't see proof that it is machine dependent. At least not yet.

Re: Count # of Unique Two-Word Phrases (Strings/Items)

hh,

Why do you use 3 repeat loops and even a nested repeat loop? That seems superfluous to me.

Re: How can I do update of my app?

Hi Razvan, A good way is to use installer maker to build an installer containing the files that needs to be updated. Use http to download the file to the user's computer, not ftp. Use the launch command to start the installer and then quit your app. Have the installer open the app when it finishes. ...

Re: Don't "do" it

Hi Craig,

Perhaps the clickChunk is flushed before the line gets executed. Your syntax in line A works fine on my Windows 10 machine. I expect there is something odd going on on the machines where it doesn't work for you.

Re: Eficient way to compress video file without using third

The efficient way is to use a third-party library.

If you have QuickTime available, you can use

Code: Select all

revInitializeVideoGrabber 
to choose the most compact format, mov or avi.

Re: detecting if a switch is connected

Perhaps you should give a little more information, e.g. about how you communicate with the switch.
