LiveCode Forums

Do you like the result? I am not sure what you mean. I have opened the PDF file with the Preview app and then selected the whole text with ctrl/cmd-A. By copying the text with Ctrl/CMD-C it gets into the clipboard where I can import it into my Livecode app as text. This works fine, a minor problem ...

Hi,

I have a PDF filewith text and pictures, but I just want the text.

I can do it manually with Ctrl-A and Ctrl-Copy by viewing the file with Preview on MacOS.

I have a business licence and want to use the PDF widget but I cannot find a way to do it.

Can someone help me out?

Cheers,
Torsten

HI, I want to say to my Android device that it should make a very short vibration. I know that I have to write a Livecode Builder library which seems to be easy. BUT now I have the problem to transform some Java code I have found into the correct foreign handler. Here is the Java code which seems to...

Hi Klaus, your suggestion is correct. Does anybody have more specific advise about how complex it is to write this widget? It seems to be a very simple command and I hope that the LCB code could be also simple, but I have not found any examples of a simple java command like this. In the simplest for...

Hi, instead of the mobileVibrate command, which has a standard length, I want to have a very short vibration. There is a way to to do this in Java: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13950338/how-to-make-an-android-device-vibrate-with-different-frequency // Get instance of Vibrator from current Con...

I made some progress but also saw a strange behavior of the widget: If you create a stack with browser widget und a buttion with this script: on mouseup set the httpheaders to "Accept-Languages: fr" set the url of widget "Browser" to "https://manytools.org/http-html-text/browser-language/" end mouse...

Hi andresdt, thanks for the information but maybe I explained my problem not detailed enough. I want to navigate and load webpages with the browser widget and I am not using POST or GET command to get the page content. So the problem is: how to tell the browser widget that it should use the httphead...

Hi, I want to tell the browser widget that it should ask the website for a representation in a specific language. As I have understood so far, this information has to be put in the httpheader: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Accept-Language But how can I configure the brows...

I discovered that Livecode does not need the shell commands, you can get all relevant information with networkInterfaces :D function get_internal_IP put the networkInterfaces into tInterfacesList repeat for each line tInternal_IP in tInterfacesList if tInternal_IP is "127.0.0.1" then next repeat els...

Hi, I had the same problem for my project and I discovered the ways to find the internal (WLAN) IP for the Livecode device on Windows, MacOS and Android. Here ist the tested handler for them: put get_internal_IP() function get_internal_IP put the platform into tPlatform switch tPlatform case "MacOS"...

Eayiest way with LC server (which can be rented < 4 $ monthly on www.hostm.com) is this script:
The output is the ip of the client.

In the dictionary:
"While using non-integer number and divisor usually produces sensible results, mathematically, integer division is generally defined as a function over the integers, and the results using non-integers may not consistently be what you expect."

If you need the comparison more than once in your code, it is better to create a custom handler :-) numberWithin (2,2,4) --> true numberWithin (5,2,4) --> false function numberWithin pNumber, pMin, pMax if pNumber >= pMin and pNumber <= pMax then return true else return false end if end numberWithin...

Hi Klaus, the problem with Safari in macOS is that WebGL is off by default, but can be activated via developer mode: German version: Menü / Entwickler / Experimentelle Funktionen / WebGL 2.0 Then it works! I have found this discussion about how to enable WebGL in macOS apps: https://stackoverflow.co...
