I'm pleased to announce the release of version 2.1 of lcStackBrowser, a plugin replacement for the Livecode Application/Project Browser.
This is a free upgrade for existing users. New users can download a fully functional 30-day demo of lcStackbrowser http://www.lcsql.com/files/theme/lcStac ... r2.0.0.zip or purchase a new license https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?c ... GJTH4BS8HC.
The complete release notes can be found https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gPK ... KAOAc/edit and a series of short videos showing how these new features work is available http://www.lcsql.com/lcstackbrowser-videos.html.
This release contains a couple of major enhancements.
CONTROLS PALETTE
lcStackbrowser now includes its own controls palette within the main display, allowing you create controls using the same methods as in the IDE Tools palette.
In addition, you can create multiple instances of one or more controls in one drag/drop operation. When the controls are dropped, you will be prompted for placement and spacing information. Using this feature, you can, for example, create rows of label and field controls, or multiple radio buttons in one drag/drop operation.
The Controls Palette is shown and hidden by clicking on a new expand/collapse icon at the bottom left of the main display. The palette is displayed beneath the list of objects.
STACK FILE CHECKPOINTS
Checkpoints provide you with the ability to create multiple copies of your stack file each time a stack is saved, at timed intervals, or when manually requested. Checkpoints can be tagged with a descriptive text.
Checkpoints can be retained based on a count or age, or you can choose to delete all of a stack's checkpoints when it is removed from memory.
A default set of checkpoint options is defined in the Preferences dialog but they can be overridden for individual stacks by selecting the "Checkpoint settings" action from a main stack's popup menu.
When a stack has checkpoints, a new icon will appear next to its name and details of each checkpoint will be included in its tooltip.
The popup menu for main stacks includes new actions to create a checkpoint on request, rollback to a checkpoint, and set the checkpoint preferences for an individual stack. You can also create a checkpoint by highlighting the main stack and pressing the "C" key. You can also rollback to a checkpoint by pressing the "R" key, or by clicking the new checkpoint icon.
