LiveCode Forums

Inspired by the other LiveCode meet-ups being organized recently I was wondering if there are LiveCode Developers in the Toronto and GTA area who would like to get together in the next couple of weeks. I have been offered a space to host at a local centre that supports new ventures and entrepreneurs...

I actually like mergExt. Adding 'merg' prefix to the externals gives continuity to the product line. So if you come up with a new name it should be able to serve the same function. One I thought of was a made up word, innovext,i.e. innovation and extern the innovext.com domain is available it does w...

Thanks for these explanations. I was able to install the newly released Livecode Server 4.6.3 on my Snow Leopard server by following your explanations and making the necessary changes to the the name change from revserver to livecode-server and extensions from .irev to .lc et-cetera.

I have a couple of bugs regarding Livecode Server and On-rev Editor that I would like to post but I am not sure what component to post them under. It seems there is not an existing one that matches. I posted a bug about about that for the QCC. THe bug number is 9653. Regarding Livecode Server I aske...

I have been trying to use SFTP to connect to the on-rev.com server when I am uploading and managing files for a site hosted on on-rev. I have not been able to connect via SFTP. I have tried with Interarchy and Cyberduck. I get a connection refused message. With Cyberduck I can connect with FTP-SSL (...

Hi I use revvideograbber in a desktop application and am planning to move it to the web eventually. There are some peculiarities with revvideograbber that need some attention. One with the preview not working in the revlet I think this may be an issue with how revlets are limited to only showing the...

I tried to set the filename of a player object to the url for a movie which is on an ssl protected server ( I will use a fake url here for an example. ) ie https://www.mysecuresite.com/movie/mymovie.mov The movie does not load If I set the filename of the player by script to an https url it will ret...

Hi. I just started experiencing the same problem on my iMac G5. In one of my searches I found a post that points to faulty capacitors in the video card as a problem. http://forums.macosxhints.com/archive/index.php/t-102724.html This is not the first hardware problem I have had with my iMac G5. I rec...

Thanks Klaus, that did the trick.

I have a menu item in a menu that performs different actions depending on which card is the current card. I thought I could do this by using 'this card' to determine the current card and run the correct command. on menuPick pWhich switch pWhich case "Open Project File..." If this card is "browse" th...

I am trying to figure out how to determine if a file has been opened by a revolution standalone so that another user running the standalone on a networked Mac won't be able to open it and edit it. The files I am using are xml files. I have tried to use the lsof file command using the terminal but it...

Oh I see how that works. If there is just the one type in the command it will not show anything in the file dialog. if I have the two types then there is a pull down menu called 'Enable:' with the two options, in this case 'Description' and 'All files' Thanks to both of you for your help on this. Ma...

Thanks for the quick reply. One further question about the type values. The first value you put is 'Description'. What is this used for and what should you put here. I did not see the word 'Description' anywhere in the file dialog. Is this text that I use to describe the type of file or is it a pred...

I am developing an application using Mac OS X 10.4 and am now testing the standalone on Leopard. My application has its own document type and the following code doesn't work in the standalone running under 10.5.

The 'always buffer' was already false. I tried turning that on just to see what would happen and the movie would not even play.
