Warning dialog after each lesson

Post by gyroscope » Tue Oct 05, 2021 7:19 pm

Hi, I used to be on the Forums a fair bit back in the day when LiveCode was Runtime Revolution. I've had a long break not using the software, but am trying LiveCode to see if I can get back into it :-)

I thought I'd start right at the beginning and try the built-in few lessons in LiveCode first. But there's a problem: when I press the final "Got It" on the congratulations panel at the end of each lesson, I get this following message:

The following user thrown error was generated and not handled, so it was intercepted by LiveCode:
errorDialog "Invalid tool type
com.livecode.widget.pdf"

It's no big deal but I thought you ought to know.

Hi all,

com.livecode.widget.pdf is a widget to display and edit PDF files in LC
and is only available in the former "Business Version" of LC and now part of
the additional "Pro Feature Pack". So this might be just a little "glitch".

Did someone already report this to Heather?
If not, please write a little mail to: support@livecode.com

Thank you!


Best

Klaus

Hi,

I can recreate this issue here so I have reported a bug.

https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=23365

The interactive tutorial seems to be trying to re-enable the PDF widget when the tutorial is finished, but this widget is only available with the Pro addon, so it can't be re-enabled.

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
