We are aware of this :) Google's Safe Search feature (which is used by Chrome, Safari and Firefox) uses reports from multiple virus scanning firms to determine if a site is potentially serving dodgy software. Unfortunately, one of the LiveCode installers has been flagged by a virus scanner as contai...

You did. And me. And everyone who's posted code. Here's a copyright suit against a related "AI" content generator, GitHub's Copilot: https://www.theregister.com/2022/11/11/githubs_copilot_opinion/ Morale of the story... Never use code which you haven't verified the license of first :) To be fair, u...

I believe the key to Mark's suggestion wasn't the "invisible" part, but the going. When LC goes to a card it unpacks all the parts in a way that invokes the font system, then allowing rendered font metrics to become available. If I understand where he's coming from, the "invisible" part just allows...

The internal colorize stuff needs to be configured before it will do anything useful. The code the SE (and message box uses) is in revseutilities... This doesn't get initialized until it is first used - the easiest thing to do is to use the utility handler Bernd suggested in there, as that ensures t...

Where is the field which is being measured? Fields on stacks (cards in fact) which are not open (which is different from being loaded - and being able to execute script!) will return 0 for any measurement operations as the field only sets up the internal layout structures when the control is opened....

@stam: So a recent update to macOS on arm macs has tightened the verification of executables. We need to tweak what we do to the server engines we ship to make it work out of the box... However, you can resolve the issue yourself by doing: cp server server-copy codesign -s - -f server-copy rm server...

not in my tests. removing the printer was enough. i did the trick 3 or 4 times: install printer->run app -> failure ->remove printer -> run app -> good -> install printer->run app-> failure and so on ad libitum. i did not uninstall anything. i had to simply add/remove the printer, letting ms do tha...

Yes - we need to make sure we compile mergNotify for arm64 on macOS as well it seems :D However, that being said, I don't think those two lines in 'macos' case actually do anything useful - macOS doesn't have notifications UIApplicationWillResignActiveNotification and UIApplicationDidBecomeActiveNot...

@FourthWorld: It’s called asking the individual concerned ‘Do you agree to assign copyright of your submission to LiveCode Ltd.’. This has never been a problem before, and if anyone did raise objection we would just politely decline and delete any remnant of their submission and move on. The explici...

@bwmilby: Yes - exactly - there is no issue with commercial licensees suggesting improvements / fixes to source-code present in the commercial editions of LiveCode. Members of the LiveCode community did that for a long time before there was a LiveCode Community Edition, and have done since that prod...

the 'composed characters' which exist in Unicode today are the only ones which will ever exist in the standard (for the languages it already encodes) - there will never be any more Um . . . well, as you will see above, I posted a screenshot of some of the Glagolitic combining characters for the Uni...

The point of this discussion is not how you create accented characters, but if this is an issue for regex. I'll re-state the question i posed earlier: if you feed a string to regex either using the accented char or a 'unicode' combination, will regex treat this differently? In an ideal world, no it...

@dunbarx: file a bug in the quality center and email the stack to support if it’s sensitive; otherwise just attach and we will take a look.

@dunbarx: Try updating to 9.6.8 - there's a 99% chance that that will make the issue go away... (The 1% is reserved for the possibility of it being something you are doing in script causing it without realizing ).

Still, the LiveCode folks warn us in the dictionary that SVG functionality is provisional and subject to change until the LC 9 development cycle is complete, so I'm very wary of using SVGs in an app planned soon for publication. Ooops - I didn't realize that was still there. That referred to the LC...
