Re: Commercial 6.5.2 cuts off letters

Hello Mark, It's a very random thing, but makes my compiled program completely unreliable. I've abandoned the commercial 6.5.2 because of this problem and gone back to community 6.1.1 The thing that drives me most crazy is that I spend a huge amount of time coding and then cannot rely on getting the...

Re: Changing a variable in the IDE

Hello dunbarx
I have community 6.1.1 (rc4) and tried what you said. Dbl clicked, changed the value of the variable and clicked the white/green check icon. Went right back to the old value. Thanks anyway.

Commercial 6.5.2 cuts off letters

I have Windows XP service pack 3. In the Commercial 6.5.2, it randomly cuts off half the letters in my script, in fields, on buttons... Even after I compile, it gives me this random behavior. I reported it as a bug a week or so ago and was told they couldn't duplicate it. I can attach a screenshot i...

I change the value to 795 and when I press the Enter key, the value goes back to 800. How do you change the value of the variable and get it to stay? Also what i...

Re: How to play a sound

I did some more testing and went back and looked at my old app where the sounds were playing. It has to do the the "flavor" of the .wav file. The one that would NOT play was 32 bit stereo. When I changed it to a 16 bit signed .wav file then it plays just fine. Thanks for your replies and now I'm pos...

Re: How to play a sound

OK, here's what I just did. I went to the folder under 6.5.2 where the .wav file is and double clicked it. It opens in Windows Media Player (my default player) and plays. My speakers are on. Then I open my app where I've imported the same file as an audio clip. I open the Application Browser and the...

How to play a sound

I'm going crazy! I had made an app with Community 6.1.1 (rc4) that played all kinds of .wav files in a subdirectory. Now I am using Commercial 6.5.2 and can't play anything at all. I actually imported a sound, "mySound.wav" into my app and then created a button with this on mouseUp command: play aud...
