DragNDrop.zip I've made this wee program. You can double click on each tile and type some text, hit enter/return to exit typing. You can click and drag the tiles over the other tiles and they will shuffle. Under normal conditions it works fairly well BUT: If you grab a tile and start dragging it ar...

Say I had the following comma delimited list of information: Residential,Ashburton,1,2,0,1 Residential,Brighton,2,0,0,0 Residential,Cashmere,3,1,2,1 Residential,Dallington,5,0,0,1 Rural,Clyde,1,0,0,0 Rural,Rangiora,5,2,0,0 Rural,Sefton,4,3,2,1 Industrial,Opawa,2,0,0,0 Industrial,Sydenham,0,1,0,0 I w...

Any way I can name the script that governs row behaviour to something different ? When you have a lot of those behaviour scripts up and they are all named the same thing, "Behavior Script" it does get confusing. All you have to do is change the name of the button the script is on from "Behaviour Sc...

thanks jacque

I worked it out! But maybe you can explain to me why it works: I had to "Lock size and position" for all the images. I remember something mentioned about that in the 2011 runrev developers conference when they were doing the tutorial and the speaker was demonstrating how to resize and import images....

I was making an application for mobile devices and wrote some custom resizing functions and commands loosely based on TickedOff-stage9. When I tested it in the android sdk emulator, it didn't look so good. So I tried the TickedOff-stage9.livecode file to see how that coped on the emulator; It didn't...

I've tried all the various approaches above and have found my own solution - shorter and perhaps more elegant. on preOpenStack set the windowShape of this stack to 1195 --must be first or the minimise wont work set the decorations of this stack to "title" end preOpenStack if you add show this stack ...

Thanks Klaus! I thought that might be the case because I tried using: on mouseUp go to card 1 send thisCommand to field "theField" of card 1 end mouseUp this works because it goes to the card before it sends the message to it. In any case I had to hear it from someone else to be sure that: The "worl...

thanks guys. I will be interested to see what I did wrong.

I would love to upload the .livecode file but the file extension is not allowed. neither is .txt and I can't trick it with .jpg The difference between send and call is how they handle object references in the handler that is triggered by the sent message. If the message is sent by the send command, ...

Make a new stack Make 2 cards On card 1 create a text field and name it "theField" In field "theField" script write the custom command: on thisCommand put "Blue" into field "theField" end thisCommand On card 2 create a button on mouseUp send "thisCommand" to field "theField" of card 1 end mouseUp Pr...
