I read Richard's article about developing for 75% of the market. While it may be true that 75% of smart phones aren't iPhones, I would be interested in numbers based on app sales. Do non-iPhone apps account for 75% of software sales? I would be surprised if they did. The iTunes app store is a great ...

I sure hope RunRev can get a positive resolution. I haven't yet jumped onto RevMobile, but I was hoping. News of Apples new terms, however, have caused me to hold back and wait and see.

Which platform are you suing? If Mac, you could try AppleScript.

Otherwise you could socket communication between the two. Look at open socket, write to socket, etc.

You will also want to use:

hide menubar

and

hide taskbar

To hide the menubar on Mac and taskbar on Windows (if you dont' want them showing up).

Took me a bit to figure out that this was what we call soccer and not football, as in American football!

Are you setting dontUseQT to false? According to the doc, you need to set it to false to force Revolution to use the built-in MCI video player on Windows.

Do you have the stack's formatForPrinting set to true? If not, that might make a difference. I now it dramatically changes how fonts print.

No, I do not work for RR nor am I associate with them. I agree that Enterprise also needs to be mentioned prominately on the RR site. I'm not sure a completely separate forum is needed, however, since Studio and Enterprise are essentially the same; Enterprise just comes with a cross-platform license...

Yes, Enterprise is still in the product line, as far as I know. Granted, it is barely mentioned on the website and not really mentioned on the forums. I assume RunRev is considering it to be the same as studio, or just a superset of studio options, so they didn't create a separate forum or page on t...

You have a genuine Mac app. Not sure if the engine uses the Carbon API or if it uses Cocoa, but it is a Mac app. Soon you'll also get a Universal Binary.

They do as you would expect :) Now the big question is how about Java? Could you use it to pass data to a Java app? I guess my original question was also what was needed for the launched process to receive data written to it and output data that is read. I think you confirmed that it uses stdio (st...

The concept of having 4 directions per square is too complex, should be one card per square, not four. I was initially completely confused by this myself until I clicked the question mark and the pdf loaded and explained how things worked. I suggest that there be a "Getting Started" button or somet...

This is a related question. On Windows and Mac, what exactly does read from process and write to process do? Does it read the stdout of the process and write to the stdin? Does this mean that the launched app needs to use the stdio library? I can see in a Unix context, this is how it would work, but...

I think using send in time should work well.

One thing to remember is to cancel the message if the user logs off before then (unless he or she is quitting the app). You can save the result, which is the ID of the message and issue a cancel if it is still pending.

First - thanks for Media. I had evaluated RunRev in the past, and now I'm back with another project idea that Media might be the fit for. While playing back MP3's, can I script: - the start and stop time of a Segment of an MP3 - the number of times to Loop the segment ? Thanks. You can set the star...
