Re: Provisional Profile - New to iOS development

Phew indeed! Thanks Dave. This really does seem to be an area that should be kept up to date.

Re: Building Option Menu items on the fly

Ahh! I was thinking along the lines of the menuItems, but of course that got me nowhere. Thanks. :)

Re: Provisional Profile - New to iOS development

Great stuff! That plus these two links seem pretty useful – although Apple does seem to have done its best to make this stuff impossible for mere mortals. :) http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/4069/l/23275-how-do-i-become-an-ios-developer http://forums.runrev.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=18248&p=9165...

Building Option Menu items on the fly

This seems like something I really ought to know, but I just can't crack it: how can I (can I?) populate an Option Menu button with menu items by script?
I have a long list that's generated on the fly, and I want it to be presented in an Option Menu.

Re: Text field appearance

A general question – a sincere one, not trolling: Given that LiveCode does such a good job with emulating the appearance of controls in Mac OS, why doesn't it do better with emulating control appearances in iOS? It's amazing to be able to make stuff for iOS this easily, but buttons and similar thing...

Re: Text field appearance

@splash21, thanks for the nudge, the answer for a regular LiveCode Text Entry field is pleasingly simple: turn off showBorder. (Duh!)

@Jellicle, I like the sound of those native text controls! It doesn't suit today's specific requirement, but I'll come back to that later.

Re: Xcode 5.1 problem?

Phew! Thanks. Travelling now, I'll do that as soon as I get to the office. :)
Is it reasonably safe to assume that this won't be an issue in a few months' time? :)

Re: Text field appearance

Thanks, both! :D
When I get my Xcode problem sorted (separate thread) I'll investigate all the permutations.

Xcode 5.1 problem?

I foolishly updated Xcode from 5.0.2 to 5.1. Now the Mobile Support pane in the Preferences window is blank, and when I try to use Add Entry and pick the new version of Xcode (in /Applications, having overwritten the previous version automatically) I'm told that "The chosen folder is not a valid iOS...

Text field appearance

Quick question:
In iOS, is there any way to have an editable text field that doesn't get an odd partial black border when someone taps into it?

Re: Provisional Profile - New to iOS development

I've done this once, using a very long set of instructions I found in a thread here. But boy, it was intense and hard to remember. Now I'm trying to explain how to do this (long story...) and I'm wondering... Does anyone have a recommended – well-explained, nothing unnecessary, that sort of thing – ...

Re: fillFore, backgroundColor?

I will report a bug if I can get my head around what to say! Perhaps someone can help? Try this: make three image objects, three graphic objects and three buttons. Make the graphic objects opaque. Run the following lines: set the borderColor of image 1 to "red" set the foregroundColor of image 2 to ...
