Re: A Procedural Graphics System

Mike, In case you have used the debugger while developing your stack it might have happened that the debugger had a very long "hang". This is a long standing bug in the treeview widget used by the debugger which is triggered by non printable characters in imageData. There is a bug report in Quality ...

Re: A Procedural Graphics System

The attached version 1.2.0 of the Procedural Graphics System adds some noise generators. These are fairly slow generators in an 800 x 800 pixel image, but not too bad. Mike, Firstly thank you for this elaborate and well written stack. I took the liberty to change some code in your version 1.2.0 to ...

Re: A Particle FX Engine for LiveCode

Thanks for this stack. It works very well.

As an aside I noticed that when I set the acceleratedRendering to "false" it runs smoother than when it is set to "true".
But that was always true for me and I never got anything "accelerated" when doing animations.

Kind regards
Bernd

Re: Issues in clearing properties

Anyway, see the dictionary for the tools you need. To bulldoze all of them: set the customKeys of stack "yourStack" to "" The screenshot refers to group "dg_ControlName". That could be a part of a dataGrid. Setting the customproperties of the stack to empty will not help then. But I do not know eno...

Re: cutting irregular pieces from image for puzzle game

Here are two stacks to 1. create image masks in the shape of a puzzle piece (actually 64 of them) stack "VariableImageMasks" 2. A stack that uses these masks to make puzzle pieces from an image using those masks stack "CreatePuzzleVariableSize". Please feel free to indicate errors or suggestions for...

Re: cutting irregular pieces from image for puzzle game

Hi rcmills, I do not know if you are still working on your Puzzle. I made a version for puzzle pieces that lets you create them at different sizes. I removed the hardcoded values for the puzzle pieces and replaced them with variables. The mask pieces now have the necessary information as custom prop...

Re: Comparing scripts

Hi, I made a stack to compare versions of a script. It uses diffCompare and is not polished since it is mostly for private use. It lists the diffences in gitHub style, clicking on a "difference" hilites the difference and scrolls them into view. You can paste the scripts into the fields or load two ...

Re: The end of XTalk / LiveCode for me

In LiveCode I had a list of notes titles, and clicking a title called up the note data in the right-hand pane. To associate a note title with its note data, I had to maintain a separate index of note IDs, and whenever I reordered the note titles, I'd have to reorder the separate index. With HTML, t...

Re: Parsing error on last line of LCB file

Hi Trevix,

I can provoke that error when I omit

Code: Select all

end widget
as the last line.

Could that be the case for you? That is just a guess.

Or maybe another handler without end handler?

Kind regards

Re: cutting irregular pieces from image for puzzle game

One thing I have learned in the past day is that in LC 10.0.2 the mobilePickPhoto "library" function no longer works properly in iOS. I use it to pick photos from my iPhone library to use in creating the puzzles. I reverted to compiling with 9.6.10, and it worked fine. Has anyone else noticed this,...

Re: Log LCB to Console.app or OSX terminal

Hi Trevix, I never used "log" in iOS or any other app, only in the IDE when debugging LCB widgets using the "Extension Builder". Sorry to be of no help here. I just looked at the LCB-dictionary for "log" as well as in the LCS-dictionary for "log" and had the impression that the LCS "log" had the abi...

Re: Log LCB to Console.app or OSX terminal

Hi Trevix,

I used "log" while debugging LCB scripts with the built in display of LC when debugging and it displays the values in the debugger window of LC.
But looking at the dictionary for LCB it seems that you can "log" to console too.
But may be I am wrong.

Kind regards
Bernd
